I want my money back

Rating: 2/10 (8 June 2013)

I like horror movies. i even like BAD horror movies. But this is just too stupid.
We're handed a premise: The US has adopted a single night per year when murder and rape and all manner of evil are not only allowed, they are legal and encouraged.
No sooner than this bizarre premise is introduced than does the plot help us, the poor, stupid viewers, to understand how wrong we were. Yes, in fact, the idea of a purge night is a stupid, stupid idea. The son gets it, the daughter gets it. The mother and father get it, too. But since all the characters and all the viewers understand that purge night is a stupid, stupid idea, that makes it a stupid, stupid idea for a movie. Right? I could review the acting and directing, but really, what would be the point? Please don't waste your time and money.
Newsflash for the writers, producer and director: The Viewers have to embrace your ridiculous premise before you make them realize it was stupid of them to do so. You can't jump right to the part where "we should have known better".
Yeah, so I have it a 2 not a 1 - credit to the actors for attempting to make this believable.
