‘THE PURGE: ANARCHY’ Teaser Is Out Of The House!

After last year’s box office success of The Purge, it was inevitable that Universal would make a sequel to the film. It seemed like genre fans were generally excited for it as the concept blended sci-fi elements with a dystopian solution for a utopian environment. What most of us got was a home invasion film that didn’t really explore the great concept and instead delivered what many felt was a mediocre home invasion film that felt all too familiar. I didn’t hate it but I didn’t love it either. What I did feel was that since the film did so well that they would use the opportunity to listen to audience members and maybe explore this grandiose concept. Today, the trailer was released for the sequel which is titled The Purge: Anarchy.

Watching that trailer intrigues me but I also would proceed with caution. This could just turn into a chase film in an outdoor environment. Not saying that is a bad thing but it still doesn’t address the concerns that people had that were disappointed with the original. I’m also reminded of Rockstar’s Manhunt for some reason when I seem some of these images. However it turns out, I’ll be in line checking the film out when it hits theaters June 20.
