About
If you want modern, character-driven horror tied to The Purge premise, you’ll likely enjoy it; Not for you if you only want nonstop horror like the films or dislike soap-opera-style drama in tense survival stories such as Bird Box or The First Purge.
Pros: fast-moving tension; modern character work; thrilling franchise add-on | Cons: stakes feel uneven; some characters frustrating; pacing can drag
