Yesterday we slapped you with some neat goodies promoting Joe Cornish’s highly-acclaimed alien invasion thriller ATTACK THE BLOCK (read our SXSW review HERE): Five character profiles introducing you to the blokes at the center of the chaos. Today we keep the ATB train rolling by providing you with a new trailer, which you can peep below. It’s shorter than the first one we saw, but no less appealing. (It also heavily highlights the comedy angle.)
Sam is walking home in a scary South London tower block when she’s robbed by a gang of hooded youths. She flees when the gang are attacked by a small alien creature which falls from the sky. While Sam and the police hunt for the gang, a second wave of creatures falls. The gang grab weapons, mount bikes, and set out to defend their turf. But this time, the creatures are much bigger. Savage and bestial, nothing will stand in their way. And the bunch of no-hope kids who just attacked Sam are about to become her only hope.
ATTACK THE BLOCK comes out in the UK on MAY 11th
