The fact that Dee Wallace and Chris Mulkey are both still alive and actively working and could both come back and play Monroe's mom and dad on Grimm makes me simultaneously giddy and really disappointed that it will never happen...

THE PURGE (2013)

This probably would have been best as a short film, I really don’t think the concept is strong enough for a feature length movie (let alone several) but maybe that is just me. Yet another film about crazy rich people (see READY OR NOT). An intense night of survival for all involved.

⭐⭐⭐

Our boy Ethan Hawke has a brand new family (because we all know how well he did with his family in SINISTER) and it features a modern mom, a techy boy, and a so-over-it teen girl. They are very rich and feel untouchable during the annual purge where all crime is legal for 12 hours (jeez). Locked in their home they don’t notice a man crying out for help, but their son does, and he invites the man inside, triggering a series of unfortunate events. Suddenly this strange man is loose in their enormous home and all these freaky people are outside asking for him back so they can end him (yikes).

The family has no choice but to look for the interloper and present him to the strangers because otherwise the freaks will bust into the home and kill everyone inside. There is a moment when the “Polite Leader” calls Ethan Hawke to the door for a meeting, it would have taken everything in me not to snark back that him calling me to the door was taking time away from me trying to find the guy they want I SWEAR him and his little SHIT EATING GRIN got on my nerves SO much. I think you were supposed to be afraid of him but really I just wanted to yank his ear and put him in timeout.

While the parents look for the interloper the son keeps trying to help him but this just gets his sister hurt badly. Both parents are willing to use torture tactics on the man before the wife sits back, reevaluates things, and realizes that maybe they are doing too much (you think?). At this point we can clearly see that the man has dog tags on so I would go out on a limb and say that maybe he is a Veteran which makes what they are doing even more cruel (like war crimes, ya know?). The parents agree not to turn him out to the freaks but they don’t un-tape him (wack!). 

Next Ethan Hawke goes on a killing, I mean, purging spree but it ends with him getting a belly full of knife (sad!). Also, suddenly a bunch of well dressed folks swoop in and start gunning down the freaks? Okay? Daddy Hawke passes away but not before he sees his daughter kill our “Polite Leader.” We also find out that the well dressed people are only there for the opportunity to murder the family (really? That is what is happening?). They try (to murder the family) but the Veteran comes out gun blazing and protects the family (what is left of it). Mama bear tells everyone no more killing and beats up a lady to prove her point. The purge is over. Ugh, I want to take another star off because in the end she just lets the Veteran walk away after all he did for them, after all they did to him, (he did throw their kid at a wall, but hey, end times) but I won’t. The film is fine.
