Overview
One night per year, the government sanctions a 12-hour period in which citizens can commit any crime they wish -- including murder -- without fear of punishment or imprisonment. Leo, a sergeant who lost his son, plans a vigilante mission of revenge during the mayhem. However, instead of a death-dealing avenger, he becomes the unexpected protector of four innocent strangers who desperately need his help if they are to survive the night. Wikipedia ↗
About the Film
The Purge: Anarchy is a 2014 American dystopian action horror written and directed by James DeMonaco, the sequel that expanded the franchise from a contained home invasion thriller to a large-scale urban survival story. The Purge: Anarchy earned $111 million worldwide on a $9 million budget. The expanded scope proved the franchise could work on city streets, and DeMonaco's exploration of how the wealthy exploit the Purge to eliminate the poor added genuine social commentary to the horror framework.
