Overview

A tower block is terrorised by aliens and Sam (Jodie Whittaker) is forced to depend on the five teenagers who have just mugged her. Funny, heart-stoppingly thrilling and with a dash of social commentary, Attack the Block pushes the British urban film out of its po-faced rut into the type of genre-blending made famous by executive producer Edgar Wright (The Worlds End). With Nick Frost.
