JOE CORNISH AND JOHN BOYEGA STILL WANT TO MAKE THAT ‘ATTACK THE BLOCK’ SEQUEL – HorrorCultFilms

Joe Cornishs sci-fi/horror [with just a bit of social conscience] Attack The Block was one of my favourites of 2011. Several times since then, Cornish and star John Boyega have mentioned that theyd like to make a sequel, and recently Cornish appeared on the ScriptApart podcast where he once again brought up the possibilities of an Attack the Block sequel, and added that hes had fresh conversations with Boyega a few months ago, saying:

Weve got ideas. I met with John a couple of months ago to talk about it. Weve always had ideas after the first one. But obviously weve both been busy doing different things. He has this image of a bigger alien attack on London, as if the attack we saw in Attack the Block was just the first wave and theres another wave of bigger creatures. And he described to me this image of Moses leading a whole army of hood kids across the Thames, next to the houses of Parliament. He had an image of Moses on a police horse. You know the police in London who have those horses they use in riotssomehow Moses has got onto one of those horses. So hes on a horse leading this army of South London kids across the river to take on this bigger wave of aliens.

So yeah its really fun to think of stuff like that and what we could do.

These belated sequels tend not to be too good though, so, while the thought of returning to the world of Attack The Block is an exciting one, I think they should leave it alone..

I'm a huge film fan and will watch pretty much any type of film, from Martial Arts to Westerns, from Romances [though I don't really like Romcoms!]] to Historical Epics. Though I most certainly 'have a life', I tend to go to the cinema twice a week! However,ever since I was a kid, sneaking downstairs when my parents had gone to bed to watch old Universal and Hammer horror movies, I've always been especially fascinated by horror, and though I enjoy all types of horror films, those Golden Oldies with people like Boris Karloff and Christopher Lee probably remain my favourites. That's not to say I don't enjoy a bit of blood and gore every now and again though, and am also a huge fan of Italian horror, I just love the style.
