So, things don’t ultimately go as plan when the tradition first practices in a remote town. That happens while the Purge advertises as a way to lower the crime rate and escape human aggression. The New Founding Fathers of America surprises to see many using it as an outlet for violence.

But, the military takes things into its own hands, revealing a much darker purpose behind this “psychological device” to keep the Purge as its violent outlet. It’s easy to see why it spreads and escalates so quickly because the first Purge is meant to only be an experiment.
