Sony Pictures has released a full set of high-res images from Neill Blomkamp’s mysterious, but much buzzed about sci-fi film District 9. Only one of the images is new (hint: its the top one) but they are all potentially high resolution, should you decide to give them a click.

District 9 depicts a fictional world where extra-terrestrials have become refugees in South Africa. Sharlto Copley (pictured below) plays Wikus, a Muli-National United agent who becomes infected by alien biotechnology, leaving him on the run from his own oppressive government into the area known as District 9, an internment camp where “non-humans” have been forced to live since landing on Earth about a month ago.

District 9 is in theaters August 14, 2009. It is produced by Peter Jackson.
