I found this a bit weaker than the first film and didn't have as much fun with it, although there are some great scenes here that are literally memorable for the genre. The fall down the tower stairs in particular is well done and simply interesting to watch and full of tension for its time. That's just the beauty of older films, and that's why I admire them for it.

Quatermass is back, and he’s at the heart of the storyline this time. Once again, gruesome slimy aliens threaten to invade our planet (and look equally realistic). Here, however, they are bigger, more aggressive and closer to ruling the world. Bernard Quatermass becomes an action figure, and the whole film leads to a relatively explosive ending. For me, it’s a tad better than the first part.
