Quatermass and the Pit, by Kim Newman (BFI/Palgrave, 2014)

March 27, 2019 ~ Eamonn ~ Leave a comment

Genre authority Newman’s monograph on the third – and best – Quatermass movie excellently places the film in its series, cycle and genre contexts, and isn’t afraid to be both critical and celebratory of the flick. Recommended.
