Will they use Velcro to attach it?

I would have thought araldite would be more effective
or some other two part adhesive. Velcro's fine to start with, but once you detach and re-attach a few times, it loses its power a bit.
Of course velcro is preferential if detaching is required on a regular basis.

Well, that was my thought process.
I mean, you wouldn't want to permanently attach it, otherwise you would really be limited in how you used it. But you're right about the break down of most hook type attachers. Maybe a clip, or some type of static set up.

Electromagnets?
Is power source a problem?

I suspect if they made it this far (assuming they don't come from the moon or a nearby planet)
and have just been jamming our attempts at discovery,
Then EMs would be a viable way of attaching whatever it is that they had a hankering to attach, and having thus come that far, I'm assuming they have a great power source.
It still doesn't address the zombie problem.

Electromagnets may solve the zombie problem
We need to feed a whole load of people some iron filings - preferably the chavs that hang around Poole bus station and Poole high street - feed them to the zombies and then switch on the EMs. The zombies will then be sucked to and held by the electromagnets and the problem will be solved.

Electromagnets would never work in Detroit

I like the look of that. I thought it was going to be some low-budget stuff made by a bloke in his bedroom
But it looks very good.

It's reasonably big-budget, and I assume, based on the actual incident.
But there's been a hoo-ha, because the guys that did all the effects and had access to storyboards and scripts and whatnot, have just released Skyline, which is really rather similar. Albeit much much shittier.

What actual incident?
I don't remember aliens attacking LA. If they did it clearly wasn't a big enough story to report over here.

A film trailer without the benefit of voice-over man.
