I’ve never seen any of The Purge movies but I know enough about
them to have come to the conclusion that they’re essentially a questionably
executed pretty interesting idea, done over and over again. A 12 hour period
when every and all crime is legal, and for some reason all anybody can think
about is murder? Please. I have more faith in people than that. Most of us
would probably do stuff that would be actually beneficial for us in the long
run, like rescue animals from kill shelters, or loot a bookstore. Am I just
really naive? Maybe. Probably. The point is, I don’t know anything about the
bigger mythology of the franchise, if such a thing even exists, which means
I’ll probably miss tons of references and such in the TV series, at least until
I finally bring myself to watch the movies.
