   Does Quatermass and the pit have a plot hole?

   • Quatermass and the Pit has plot holes, especially the final scene. Even a writer who declared repeatedly that he hated science fiction (Nigel Kneale) shouldn’t have got some of that wrong. However, Quatermass and the Pit has some definite redeeming features. There is at least one black guy; this was progress.

   Is Quatermass and the pit a horror movie?

   • I don’t want to spoil the movie so let’s just say that Hobbs Lane’s spelling evolved from the earlier Hob’s Lane. Quatermass and the Pit melds science fiction with metaphysics, superstition and mythology. Mostly it’s done well, especially for its era and considering that the movie is intended as horror. Very mild horror by today’s standards.

   What is the difference between Quatermass and the pit & conclusion?

   • Quatermass and the Pit (1958) = Five Million Years To Earth (1967), with the latter rebadged as Quatermass and the Pit (1967) Quatermass (1979) = The Quatermass Conclusion (1979); these are not identical but the ‘Conclusion’ appears to be a cut-down version of the TV series made for a cinematic release. Because cutting a story works so very well.
