‘The Purge 3’ Officially Confirmed; James DeMonaco To Write, Direct
  |  @   |  

The Purge film franchise is probably one of the most profitable franchises we have seen in recent years. The Purge was made on a $3 million budget and earned a lifetime total of $89.3 at the box office, while The Purge: Anarchy was made on a $9 million budget and earned $108 million at the box office. Pretty impressive numbers for both films considering they were made on a six-figure budget. So Universal hopes to strike gold again with The Purge 3. Not only that but James Demonaco, who wrote and directed the first two films, will return to serve as writer and director once more.

The Purge is set in America, where a newly established government helped lower crime to an all-time low, raised the number of jobs to an all time high, and poverty is no where in sight. All of that is thanks to an annual event called “The Purge.” During this time, all crime is legal for 12 hours. In the first film, we focus on the family, whose riches couldn’t even protect them inevitable bloodshed. The second one however, flip that story on its head and focused on a group who couldn’t afford the luxury of a high-powered defense system, and a man who had a vendetta.

  |  @   |  

The Purge: Anarchy

Starring Frank Grillo, Carmen Ejogo, Zoe Soul, Michael K. Williams, Zach Gilford
Universal Pictures
Rated R | 103 Minutes
Release Date: July 18, 2014

Review by Yasin Lago

The first Purge film was a concept and box office windfall that took folks by surprise, so much so that it seemed to demand a sequel. True or not, here it is with The Purge: Anarchy. The original played as the suburban-style stuck-in-the-house-with-strangers scenario. This time out the story is told throughout the city, with downtown L.A. as an open set location. Of course that means expanding and expounding on violent crimes committed by seemingly demonic-like phantoms strolling from murder to murder, as well as the class war, slightly hinted at in the previous, which is the focus of this film.

‘The Purge: Anarchy’ Teaser Trailer
  |  @   |  

Last year’s The Purge was one of 2013’s sleeper hits at the box office, which was enough to convince Universal Pictures to finance its sequel, The Purge: Anarchy. The premise centers on the entire nation shutting off its emergency services and allowing for any crime to occur for a 12 hour period. Ethan Hawke and Lena Headly were some of the headline stars to appear in the first one, but won’t reappear in the second. Instead the film will focus on new characters who are in a much scarier situation than their predecessors.

Now we’ve got our first look at the film in the form of a teaser trailer, which gives us a small look at what happens when you are not in the comfort of your own home. Watch it below.
