A frightening and terrifying tale adapted from Peter Key's school of Doctor Quatermass serial . Based on a TV Series 1956 formed by six episodes starred by Sarah Lawson , Ronan O'Casey , Michael Anthony and Laurence Payne , the same director Quentin Lawrence made this film version of this called The Crawling Eye or The Trallenbeg Terror in 1958 . Thrilling and eerie film , more to the point , the scary extraterrestrian monster in Ray Harryhausen style attacks unfortunate climbers and skiers by beheading them . This is a short budget B movie , a tribute producers Robert S Baker and Monty Norman and their skillness for going the extra mile in resourceful invention and their knack for providing in low budget some decent special effects . As the presence of a weird force , a fantastic visitor explains it all and prompting resulting in the spectaculal final climax with primitive but decent FX.
The motion picture was professionally directed by Quentin Lawrence . He was a craftsman who produced and directed several TV episodes of notorious series (Suspense, Invisible Man, Guillermo Tell, Web, The Voodoo Factor , The Avengers ,Albert and Victoria , Trapped , The Baron, Crown Court, Village Hall, Sam) and occassionally directing films (The Trollenberg Terror , A month in the Country, We Shall see , Playback , Cash on demand, The Secret of Blood Island). Rating 6/10 . Passable and acceptable terror Sci-Fi movie .
