Creepy, thought provoking good movie.

Rating: 8/10 (15 July 2014)

I watched this the other night, DVR'd it and now see myself watching it again. I am not sure where the bad reviews are coming from. I thoroughly enjoyed this flick and found the plot unusual and interesting. It is 2022 and crime is almost non existent except for a 12 hour annual event sponsored by the Government in which all crime, including murder, is legal.
A family thinks they are safe in their tightly secured home until a group of thugs shows up at their door looking for a man their son has allowed in to save him from being killed during The Purge.
The leader is grimacing, creepy and reminds me of the movie "A Clockwork Orange".
Trying to figure out how this movie scores a paltry 5.5. I give it an 8/10.
