A gang of uni kids head out to an isolated cabin to have a
fun weekend but it all goes to buggery pretty quickly. The entire trip is being
orchestrated by a company that sacrifice the blood of the dead to the old gods
to stop them from returning to destroy humanity. Yeah, you read that right.
The way the people who worked for the company seemed to
delight in the deaths of those being sacrificed, on the surface, seems chilling
and completely unbelievable. But really, this is nothing new. People get used
to the horrific deeds they have to do for their work and they find a way to
make light of it or they go under. It makes sense that they acted like this and
you can’t really hate them for it. Well, I couldn’t, anyway.
While Dana (Kristen Connolly) and Marty (Fran Kranz) hide
out in the office they see a large red button labelled ‘PURGE’ which releases all of the evil creatures that the company use when making their sacrifices. Why was there a
purge button? Clearly the most fundamental question.
Why would there be a button that would release all of the nightmares that they
had cooped up in the lifts? Plot hole? Or maybe it’s like why we have nuclear
weapons; so that when it gets bad we can just say ‘fuck it’ and let loose all hell.
Or at least have the possibility to threaten other countries with it.
Guuuuys, I loved it so much. I can’t even talk about it
properly because I loved it so much. Sure, it had some flaws but who cares, I
like flaws, they make things more special. It was just everything I needed it
to be.
