Quatermass-Original BBC TV version
The Quatermass Collection is required viewing if you're into classic black & white scifi, in my opinion. Yes, it was done pretty cheaply, and each story comes out more like a stage play than modern tv, and of course, the SFX are terrible by modern standards. The stories are superb though, and more importantly, the acting is great, Andre Morell (Quatermass & the Pit) is quite possibly the best Quatermass of them all. Yes the first story is incomplete at only two episodes, but this set is worth it for the two subsequent stories, with Quatermass & the Pit being the best. Essential buy at this price for scifi fans.
