Will Patton | Movie Roar

Directed by Everardo Gout, The Forever Purge is a continuation of the satire Purge franchise. As usual, all the rules don’t exist, as a sect of lawless marauders decides that the annual Purge does not stop at daybreak and instead should never end in this movie.

As Blumhouse’s infamous terror franchise hurtles into innovative, fresh territory, members of an underground movement, no longer satisfied with one annual night of anarchy and murder, decide to overtake America through an unending campaign of mayhem and massacre. No one is safe.

Adela, played by Ana de la Reguera, and her husband Juan, played by Tenoch Huerta, live in Texas, where Juan works as a ranch hand for the wealthy Tucker family. Juan impresses the Tucker patriarch, Caleb, played by Will Patton, but that fuels the jealous anger of Caleb’s son, Dylan, played by Josh Lucas.

On the morning after The Purge, a masked gang of killers attacks the Tucker family—including Dylan’s wife, played by Cassidy Freeman, and his sister, played by Leven Rambin, forcing both families to band together. They fight back as the country spirals into chaos and the United States disintegrates around them.

Co-written and directed by David Gordon Green, Jamie Lee Curtis returns to one of her best roles in the movies. Laurie Strode comes to her ultimate confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.

John Carpenter will not direct this time but will executive produce and serve as a creative consultant. The rest of the cast includes Judy Greer, Will Patton, Nick Castle, Andi Matichak and Omar J. Dorsey.

Following Carpenter’s classic, filmmakers David Gordon Green and Danny McBride crafted a story that carves a fresh path from the events in the groundbreaking 1978 movie.

Forty years ago, Michael Myers went after Laurie Strode in the original Halloween. There are two featurettes focusing on the original movie. One featurette focuses on how the production team dealt with making the Myer’s mask look older. In the next featurette, the cast, crew and director share their stories when they first saw the original Halloween.

Now, the movie is available on Blu-ray, DVD, and is streaming. Purchase your copy and keep it in your library, so you can play it every Halloween or whenever you need a dose of Myers stalking Jamie Lee Curtis.
