Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated The First Purge (2018) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
The new movie in the series is set in 2017, five years before the first movie, after the rise of a third political party, the NFFA (New Founding Fathers of America), which was formed in 2014, set up an experiment where no laws can be broken or reported for 12 hours on Staten Island, a place that they class to be the perfect place to set up the controversial experiment, it’s an area that has it’s problems, people with lack of money and gangs.
As an incentive for people to stay during the experiment, they are offered $5,000 to stay during what has now become known as “The Purge”.
The First Purge has some great moments of making you jump, it also has some great use of the special effects and one that really sticks in my mind is a moment when a blood splatter hits the camera lens, shocking and very nicely done at the same time, can only imagine how something like that would look like in 3D.
