Win Tickets To The Advance Screening Of THE PURGE: ANARCHY In St. Louis
In 2013, the country responded to the provocative concept that on one night every year, any and all crime is made legal. Audiences turned THE PURGE into a surprise summer hit as the film debuted at No. 1 with an astonishing $34.1 million weekend at the domestic box office.
After witnessing the response to the film and listening to the conversations that it provoked, James DeMonaco (writer/director of The Purge and writer of The Negotiator, Assault on Precinct 13) quickly returned to the explosive universe that he created with an even more arresting idea for a sequel: placing the audience outside on the streets during the annual Purge.
A speculative thriller that shows us what occurs during The Purge outside of the confines of a suburban neighborhood, THE PURGE: ANARCHY returns us to a dystopic future. Our government, now re-engineered by the New Founders of America (NFA), has sanctioned its annual 12-hour Purge to ensure that the crime rate stays below one percent for the rest of the year. With police and hospitals suspending help, it’s one night when the citizenry regulates itself without thought of punishment or fear of retribution.
It’s time to take to the streets for anarchy.
The new story follows an unlikely group of five citizens who, over the course of the night, find out just how far they will go to protect themselves and, ultimately, each other, as they fight to survive a night fraught with impossible decisions.
From Blumhouse Production and Universal Pictures, THE PURGE: ANARCHY will invade theaters on July 18th.
