![]() ![]() These include a seriously deranged schoolgirl (Brittany Mirabile), who didn’t appreciate being denied a candy bar at Joe’s store. This trio eventually meets up with Roan and Barnes, and they all try their best to stay alive by disposing of killers in the process. Subtle.īefore the carnage begins, we get introduced to Joe (Mykelti Williamson), a deli owner who decides to defend his store when his Purge insurance rates go up, his Mexican assistant, Marcos (Joseph Julian Soria), and Laney (Betty Gabriel), who now runs a triage van to assist Purge survivors. One homicidal maniac, dressed as Uncle Sam, speaks with a Russian accent. The unfortunates find themselves on the working end of a guillotine, strapped to the hood of a car like deer, skewered with arrows, shot and set on fire. (Providence and Woonsocket, Rhode Island, act as substitutes). A betrayal takes them to the streets, which are decidedly mean as Purge night attracts “murder tourists” to Washington, D.C. When Roan decides to stay in her home and not retreat to a protective bunker - she doesn’t want to be seen as a coward - Leo Barnes (Frank Grillo), her head of security, has to figure out a way to protect her.

The system has been established by the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA) to purportedly lower crime and unemployment rates when in actuality, it’s an excuse to rid the country of have-nots. ![]() Those familiar with the “Purge” films - this is number three - know the premise: for 12 hours, the government sanctions all manner of crime, including murder. People of a certain political persuasion should be warned that “Purge: Election Year” pushes an agenda that might not be to their liking. ![]()
