So we’re on the verge of UK cinemas opening up and the latest film we’ve been sent is The Forever Purge trailer.
This summer, there are no more rules as a sect of lawless marauders decides that the annual Purge does not end at daybreak and instead should go on and on in The Forever Purge. Vaulting from the record-shattering success of 2018’s The First Purge, Blumhouse’s infamous terror franchise hurtles into innovative new territory as an underground movement, no longer satisfied with one annual night of anarchy and murder, decide to “purify” the country once and for all and launch a class and race massacre along America’s southern border.
Mexican refugees Adela (Ana de la Reguera -Cowboys & Aliens) and her husband Juan (Tenoch Huerta – Days of Grace) have fled the drug cartels in their country and now live in Texas. Working as a ranch hand for the wealthy Tucker family, Juan impresses the Tucker patriarch, Caleb (Will Patton – Halloween). Unfortunately, that only fuels the jealous anger of Caleb’s son, Dylan (Josh Lucas – Ford v Ferrari). On the morning after The Purge, a masked gang of killers attacks the Tucker family—including Dylan’s pregnant wife, Cassie (Cassidy Freeman, HBO’s The Righteous Gemstones), and his sister, Harper (Leven Rambin, The Hunger Games), forcing both families to band together and fight back as the country spirals into chaos and the United States begins to disintegrate around them.
From a screenplay by franchise creator and narrative mastermind James DeMonaco, The Forever Purge is directed by Everardo Gout, writer-director of the award-winning thriller Days of Grace. From this Forever Purge trailer it looks as though this has a very obvious and less than subtle political undercurrent aimed squarely at Trump’s tenure as President.
The Forever Purge opens on 16th July 2021
