Attack the Block is a 2011 comedy science fiction horror film starring John Boyega and Jodie Whittaker. It's about a teenage street gang who defend themselves from alien invaders on a South London council estate on Guy Fawkes Night. This is great fun. I watched it on Amazon Prime.

DeleteThis sounds like it could be a Dr Who episode or more of a sci fi film. But it sounds pretty good.
ReplyDeleteSometimes horror and science fiction are not really distinguishable.
