With three different writers, the film's seams show despite the heavy lifting from stars Peter Cushing, Yvonne Monlaur and David Peel.

After, or rather while, sampling The Gorgon, The Evil of Frankenstein and The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb, all 1964, I dreamed that I was touring the script crypt at Bray. There Major Carreras cracked his bull whip over the sweating backs of the toiling writers, who moaned at their task while an assistant producer beat out the typing speed on his kettle drums. The light of the full moon poured in through the Gothic windows, and producer Anthony Hinds stared in horror at his hands, as they grew hairy and twitched - another script idea was taking them over, and he was turning into one or another of his dreaded alter egos, John Elder and Henry Younger. Young Baron Sangsterstein was there, cackling hideously and with fiendish cunning sewing together bits of scenarios from the old Universal book. The dialogue was inserted by a very old librarian entirely wrapped in off-white bible-paper; he was consulting a stack of stone tablets whose hieroglyphics were cliché when the riddle of the sphinx was only a gleam in the High Priest's eye.

Quatermass 2 (1957)
Quatermass 2 (retitled Enemy From Space in the United States and Canada) is a 1957 black-and-white British science fiction horror film drama from Hammer Film Productions. It was produced by Anthony Hinds, directed by Val Guest, and stars Brian Donlevy with co-stars John Longden, Sidney James, Bryan Forbes, Vera Day, and William Franklyn. Quatermass 2 is a sequel to Hammer's earlier film The Quatermass Xperiment (1955). It was originally shown in the UK as Quatermass II. Like its predecessor, it is based on the BBC Television serial Quatermass II written by Nigel Kneale. Brian Donlevy reprises his role as the eponymous Professor Bernard Quatermass, making him the only actor to play the character twice in a film. It is considered as the first film sequel to use the ‘2’ / ‘II’ suffix within the title.
The film's storyline concerns Quatermass's investigation of reports of hundreds of meteorites landing only in the Winnerden Flats area of the UK. His inquiries lead him to a huge industrial complex, strikingly similar to his own plans for a Moon colony. This top-secret facility is in fact the centre of a conspiracy involving the alien infiltration of the highest echelons of the British Government. Quatermass and his allies must now do whatever is necessary to defeat the alien threat before it is too late.

According to Aisha’s IG, ...
... Anthony Hemingway is directing the episode that they’re currently filming, and, as a “Shameless (US)” aficionado, I’m officially losing my resolve to not have some hope that some thing is happening.
Back in the clown car I go!
ETA: *Jumps back out of said car* Apparently, that picture was from filming an episode of “True Lies,” and she shared it just as a friend. This is how desperate I am for hope.
