The Fly II. 1989.

Seth's Brundle's son has inherited the "Brundlefly" gene, growing at a rapid rate and under the observation of Bartok Industries who want to continue with the teleportation experiments.

In The Fly, Seth mentions Bartok and here we see the corporation at it's fullist with Lee Richardson playing the big guy on campus who know's everything and wanting sonny boy Eric Stoltz to be like father and mutate to the full capacity of being a insect. Daphne Zuniga plays the new employee and little love interest but the chemistry is a bit woozy between the two actors. Chris Walas takes over the directors chair for this and creates a new creature effect but still manages to produce some face melting and head crushing moments and the effect of sending a dog through the telepods.

Attack The Block. 2011.

The film throws us into it after the first 10 minutes, after a mugging goes a bit wrong and something hits a car then we know shit is about to go down. Quite ironic the leader of the gang Moses seems to allow his mates to follow in a life of crime then to safety, almost very biblical. Jodie Whitaker plays the young nurse Sam who is mugged then after being ambushed in her flat that is attacked by a alien goes with the gang to safety. This was a lot better the second time around watching this, good fast pace, plenty of a gore and bloodfest to behold.
