Joe Cornish on the films that influenced Attack The Block
  • 13 years ago
Joe Cornish (of Adam And Joe fame) has gone and made himself a movie. Bringing together a cast that includes old pal Nick Frost, new pals Jodie Whittaker and Luke Treadaway, and five ever-so-talented newcomers in the form of John Boyega (Moses), Franz Drameh (Dennis), Alex Esmail (Pest), Leeon Jones (Jerome) and Simon Howard (Biggz), it's been billed as 'inner city vs. outer space' as a gang of South London hoodies are the last line of defence for a tower block that's been attacked by hairy, vicious, bloodthirsty aliens. Sitting down with them all, we got to chatting about a sequel, dance troupes, and what exactly we're supposed to call those "big alien gorilla wolf motherfuckers" in polite company... http://www.empireonline.com/interviews/interview.asp?IID=1263
