One of the finest sci-fi/monster movies made in the 1950s. This is an all time classic. Wonderfully acted by Edmund Gwenn, James Arness, James Whitmore and Joan Weldon this film for its time will be difficult to surpass. Lingering radiation from the first atomic bomb test, White Sands, Mexico in 1945 turns ants into huge rampaging monsters. The world is about to come to an end, but determination to destroy the giant ants leads to an exciting confrontation in the nest beneath the LA sewers which to this day, is one of the most amazing scenes ever filmed. A must buy if on DVD, although as far as I know is not available on VHS tape which is a pity. See it.
This is the film which made Albert Finney a star. Filmed on location at Nottingham, Albert Finney plays Arthur Seaton a bored factory worker who is having an affair with his workmate's wife (Rachel Roberts). Controversial at the time because of its references to abortion, this film gives an idea of what life was like amongst the working classes during the 1950s. Shirley Anne Field also made her name in this film, but she never really fulfilled her potential as an actress. A well acted and produced gritty drama which is still watchable today.
Another Hammer success of the 1950s. Adapted from an original television broadcast first shown during the autumn of 1955, this version is a lot pacier than the broadcast. Brian Donlevy does his best in a part which he didn't really want, but he manages to bring some credibility to the part. This was an age of Government cover-ups and conspiracys. Quatermass discovers a secret establishment believed to be making synthetic food. It turns out to be an alien invasion. With some help he manages to destroy the plant before the invasion can proceed. Some good action sequences, and a tremendous music score. Worth seeing just to see what sci-fi was like in the 1950s. Sci-fi has come a long way since then of course. Not as good as Quatermass Experiment, and no-where as good as Quatermass and The Pit. (released 1967) Still good nonetheless.
