Lord Tom Byron was such a larf as the geeky kid with a huge cock.

Summary: War of the Worlds Meets The Exorcist
This is one of my favorite science fiction films. At first it plays like a ghost story as people who live in the neighborhood where the skeletons are found relate their experiences. However, it soon becomes apparent that its not the occult that everyone has to worry about, its the Martians. Andrew Keir did a wonderful job as Quatermass and he made the role his own. The only thing I wish for is that someone would show the Quatermass series on television and expose a new generation, including myself, to one of the greatest characters in science fiction.
