Quatermass Movie

While investigating reports of mysterious swarms of objects from space crash-landing on Earth, Professor Bernard Quatermass discovers a huge synthetic-food plant that is inexplicably identical to his recent proposal for a moon-base. After encountering zombie-like guards, Quatermass breaks into the plant, only to find that the domes are home to a hideous alien creature, which is taking over mankind as part of its evil plan for total world domination…
