District 9 Full Trailer Online

The full trailer for Neil Blomkamp and Peter Jackson's **District 9 has finally arrived at Yahoo.

Anticipation is hotting up, following the clever viral marketing campaign and the one-sheet from earlier this week. Everyone's nicely aware of the concept by now - aliens landing in South Africa and ghettoised in the district of the title - but this is our most detailed glimpse so far of how that concept is going to pan out on film.

We knew about the documentary approach from the teaser trailer (also up at Yahoo) but the full clip gives a pretty good idea of the scale of the action too, with a lot of quick shots of firefights between ground troops and what look like giant mechanoids. Which makes for the third humanity-versus-robots rumble this summer, after **Terminator: Salvation **and Transformers: ROFL (sorry, ROTF).

The UK release date is September 4th, and there will be full coverage in **Empire **issue 243, on sale July 30th.
