By: Marty Meltz | 2010-03-28 | Movies Grisly in the extreme, strikingly original, perversely intelligent. Steeped in male energy, peppered with surprise turns on old themes, the visually cruel "District 9," probably nauseating for some, spiritually desolate for others, but of macabre fascination for still others, is destined to re-shape the sci-fi concepts of modern film. Rising briskly out of the initial monotony of its descriptive array of desolation, the film treats its morbid substance with such weighty detail and relentless illumination that you are struck with how real this high concept becomes. read more

By: Shiromi Arserio | 2010-03-29 | Movies District 9 has been on IGP's radar for some months now ever since we heard about this Peter Jackson/Neil Blomkamp movie about aliens that land in South Africa. For those of you that are only just beginning to hear about this relatively small budget sci-fi movie and are wondering what it's all about, check out the short film that District 9 is based on called Alive in Joberg. Judging from the trailer to District 9, there's a lot of Alive in Joberg in this movie. The aliens look very similar in design, if more high tech, with their squid like faces. The alien's faces are strangely pixilated through much of the trailer as with the short movie. read more

The frontier was continued down the coast to Moresby (near Whitehaven) as a line of forts linked and backed up by roads read more
