JOE CORNISH

Fresh from awards both here and here plus a nomination for Joe's script at the Writers Guild of Great Britain, Attack the Block was released on DVD and Blu-ray on 19th September 2011.

So far, I've seen three different sleeves for both formats:

Play.com have the Glow in the Dark

HMV.com and their stores have a version with a matt sleeve and a glossy booklet inside. If you got the April edition of Little White Lies (or the little ATB mini-issue) you'll already have most of the contents of this booklet but it's a nice compliment to the package.

Other outlets (online and high street) are selling versions with sleeves that have a silver foil element to the whites on the cover art.

You can still buy the soundtrack here.

If you prefer to rent the film, you can find it at LOVE film.

Blockbuster have it both online and in their shops.They carried it to rent exclusively, a week before anyone else.

If you want to own the film but don't have the shelf space, iTunes offer a download for £ 9.99 and they have the soundtrack with the additional "Get that Snitch" track here.

Film4 have launched their 'download to rent' service via FilmFlex by offering Attack the Block for £ 3.99 which seems to be the same platform offered by Virgin's Movies On Demand.

Of course, Sky Movies Box Office are showing it every hour on the half.

If you're still kicking yourself for not having seen the film on a big screen, keep your eyes open because a film like this will often pop up at a one-off cult screening. It's been showing at one place or another over the last few weeks. You can even catch it for free on 13th October if you're around Brixton in London.

Finally, Sci-fi London's October event has booked Alex Esmail (Pest) for one of their Camden Town Hall concessions to sign stuff and have pictures taken for a small fee.

If I still have your attention, take a few minutes to listen to some of the entries in this wonderful DJ competition. It's success relies on these mixes being played so enjoy yourself!
