In this final episode of LOBOT MODS season 1, we take a look at Tim Burton's sci-fi feature film MARS ATTACKS! and compare that with the 2011 UK action/sci-fi/monster feature ATTACK THE BLOCK. Two alien invasions. One by the skeletal would-be Martian overlords, the other from a bunch of ink-black plushies with radioactive teeth. Is the human race doomed? Not if John Boyega has anything to do with it.

THE LOBOT MODS will return in ten weeks. See you in 2025!
