John Rae (1896 - 1985)

Film Deaths[]

  • Quatermass 2 (Enemy from Space) (1957) [McLeod]: Killed (off-screen), along with Charles Lloyd Pack, by the alien-controlled guards, who then use their bodies to block the pipes pumping oxygen (toxic to the aliens) into the aliens' factory. We hear their screams from elsewhere in the factory, and their deaths are confirmed when Brian Donlevy notices blood leaking from the pipes and figures out what happened.

TV Deaths[]

  • Quatermass II: The Frenzy (1955; TV mini-series) [E.G. McLeod]: Presumably killed by the alien-controlled guards. (I have not seen this mini-series, but I assume that his fate in the mini-series was similar if not identical to that in the film remake Quatermass 2.)
