‘District 9’ Viral Hits the Streets


We can’t wait to see Neill Blomkamp’s District 9.

They started a viral campaign awhile ago on the web that plays up the alien rights/we can co-exist mantra, now print ads have been released in the real world on things like billboards, bus shelters (etc.) Check the samples below, or head over to the District 9 Flickr page to see them all.

I really have to hand it to them, this is some great viral marketing and lends to the paranoid nature of the story line in the film, which just makes me want to see it that much more.
