Hey, America has been suffering from alien invasions for centuries now, so it’s about time someone else share the pain. In Joe Cornish’s “Attack the Block”, the alien buggers take on the teenage hoodlums of South London and hilarity, as they say, ensue. The film recently made its North American debut over at SXSW, and from everything I’ve read, did a bang up job of it. Here’s a trailer, poster, and a couple of images.
A gang of South London teenagers defends their housing project against an alien attack.
Starring Jodie Whittaker, John Boyega, Alex Esmail, Franz Drameh, Leeon Jones, and directed by Joe Cornish.
The film opens first in the UK on May 13, 2001.
