A-Z Horror Movie of the Day..."The Purge" (R - 2013 - US)

A wealthy family are held hostage for harboring the target of a murderous syndicate during the Purge, a 12-hour period in which any and all crime is legal.
"Incoming reports show this year's Purge has been the most successful to date, with the most murders committed." Even though this franchise has blown up into 4 movies and a series, I really enjoyed going back to this one. I feel that after this the sequels went to almost an Action/Thriller than Horror. It might not be my favorite of the franchise, but it's the closest to a horror movie you'll get.
