Victor,Ever seen the original(?) teleplay version with Jack Palance? IMO, Jack tops AQ as Mountain, in a much cheaper production.
Requiem is from the pen of Rod Serling, who wrote some of my favorite films of the late 50's...Patterns, Seven Days in May, among others.I agree with your assessment of the big screen version of Requiem...humanity and dignity don't come cheap.
