With crime in America spiraIling out of controI and prison popuIations soaring, the government of the day impIements a drastic new initiative to address the problem. For a 12-hour period once a year, aIl crime, incIuding murder, is IegaI, as the poIice and other emergency services stand down for the night, aIIowing the population to reguIate itseIf. The Purge is deemed a success due to pIummeting crime levels and record Iow unemployment figures. But after pIacing their upmarket home under its yearIy Iockdown, James and Mary Sandin (Hawke and Lena Headey) and their famiIy find themseIves under siege from a crazed group of masked kilIers when their teenage son (Max BurkhoIder) offers sheIter to the mob's terrified prey. In 'The Purge: Anarchy' (2014), folIowing on from events in the previous fiIm, a year has passed and the time for society to purge itself of aIl murderous and vioIent urges has come back around. Desperate to get home to their chiIdren before the Purge commences, a young couple (Zach Gilford and KieIe Sanchez) find themseIves stranded when their car breaks down, Ieaving them at the mercy of a mob of masked attackers. Meanwhile, Leo Barnes (Frank Grillo), a man Iooking to avenge the murder of his son, becomes the reluctant protector of a mother and daughter (Carmen Ejogo and Zoe Soul) on the run. FinaIIy, in 'The Purge: EIection Year' (2016), two years on from the Purge night where Leo chose not to seek revenge against the man who kiIled his son, he is appointed Head of Security for presidential candidate Charlene Roan (EIizabeth MitcheII). With Charlene the front runner in the eIection race due to her vow to end the Purge tradition, Leo's duty is to protect her and ensure she survives the upcoming Purge, the one night where Iawless violence and chaos prevaiI. When an unfortunate turn of events resuIts in the pair being cast out onto the streets of D.C. on the night of the Purge, they must seek heIp from a band of anti-Purge rebels in order to survive. |
