Durante unas excavaciones en Londres, aparece un extraño objeto de gran tamaño. Al principio se cree que puede ser una bomba de la Segunda Guerra Mundial lanzada por los nazis. El ejército descubre que no es nada parecido y llama al profesor Quatermass, que junto con el doctor en antropología Roney y su ayudante Bárbara Judd intentaran explicar el enigma.

Professor Quatermass is quite an interesting character, but in this film, I was more captivated by the colorful execution and the individual special effects, which are quite good. The story felt like a mishmash of everything possible that sci-fi offered at the time, although it's true that the author of the source material had this story out for quite a while with the screenplay. But somehow I couldn't get into the story.

I’m adding the third star for the atmospheric ending, where at last something interesting happens. Otherwise, it’s a weak film, and I’m saying this as someone who loves science fiction and horror.
