Quatermass 2 (PG) + intro

Uncover a gripping tale of alien infiltration and Cold War paranoia in Hammer’s chilling follow-up to their sci-fi breakthrough.

Created by Nigel Kneale and directed by Val Guest, Quatermass 2 is presented for the first time ever in stunning 4K, newly restored from original film elements.

When a series of meteorite showers fall near a top-secret government facility, Professor Bernard Quatermass is drawn into a mystery with terrifying implications.

What begins as a scientific inquiry soon reveals a covert alien infiltration, spreading silently beneath the surface of official research. As the conspiracy unravels, Quatermass races against time to expose the truth—before an otherworldly force changes humanity forever.

Blending atmospheric suspense, science fiction, and Cold War-era unease, Quatermass 2 stands as a landmark in British genre cinema. 

This screening will be preceded by an extended introduction by Toby Hadoke and Andy Murray.  

Toby Hadoke is an actor, writer and stand-up comedian: resident MC at XS Malarkey comedy club and host of Radio 4 Extra’s The 7th Dimension. His book about the making of TV’s The Quatermass Experiment was published in May 2025 by Ten Acre Films.
