The Purge: Election Year (2016)

The Purge: Election Year (2016) is the third installment in The Purge franchise, continuing its dystopian vision of a future America where all crime, including murder, is legal for one night each year. This time, the film follows Senator Charlie Roan, a presidential candidate campaigning to end the Purge, as she becomes the primary target of the corrupt ruling elite, the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA).

Leo Barnes, the former police sergeant from The Purge: Anarchy (2014), now serves as Roan’s head of security. When the annual Purge begins, they find themselves betrayed and forced to survive the night on the chaotic streets of Washington, D.C. Along the way, they encounter resistance fighters and ordinary citizens who have their own reasons to oppose the brutal tradition.
