The Darkest Hour 2011  

Posted by: Gwen Stewart in



The second half of 2011 is seeing a resurgence of the alien invasion flick with Attack the Block and Cowboys & Aliens recently being released. Today Summit Entertainment presents to the web the trailer for the latest invasion movie, The Darkest Hour. And trust me when I tell you this one ain’t no joke. Breaking from the ugly, monstrous marauding alien form we’re all used to seeing, these extraterrestrials have no form — existing in some invisible electrical state — and show no mercy to anything calling Earth home.

After checking out the trailer below, I’m sure this movie will definitely be on your radar, as it is now firmly on mine.

The Darkest Hour stars Emile Hirsch, Joel Kinnaman, Olivia Thirlby, Rachael Taylor and Max Minghella.
