The teaser trailer for Neil Blomkamp’s District 9 debuted just the other day, and regardless of whether or not you appreciated its faux-documentary style, I think it’s pretty safe to say that Blomkamp’s visual style is unique and, in my opinion, spectacular. One of the critical moments in the teaser is an exchange that takes place between a human and an alien who is sitting behind a table in an interrogation room. The alien responds to some basic questions, but we don’t see what the alien’s “face” looks like (it’s blurred out, Cops style), nor do we understand what it is saying.
Now, via IMDB, a new trailer has surfaced which removes the blur and adds in some English subtitles for the alien language. I for one was kind of a fan of the mysterious undertones of the original teaser, but the subtitles give further hints as to the plot/setting/circumstances of the new film. Hit the jump to check out the trailer, then hit the comments to let us know what you think.
