Attack The Block

Bonfire night, South London: Sam (Jodie Whittaker - St Trinians, Venus) is robbed by a gang of hooded youths. Suddenly a flaming meteor crash-lands close by. Sam makes her escape, but the gang are attacked by a small vicious alien. They kill the ghoulish invader, but their triumph is short lived. More aliens are invading and they’re bigger, stronger and out for blood. The gang’s only chance of survival is to take refuge within the concrete walls of their housing block. Teaming up with Sam and local drug dealer Ron (Nick Frost - Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz), they realise it’s time to step up and be heroes. From the producer of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Scott Pilgrim vs the World and Paul, Attack the Block is the directorial debut of comedian and broadcaster Joe Cornish (The Adam and Joe Show). A sci-fi, horror, action, comedy with an old school flavour, it’s inner city versus outer space.
