"Will you hide or will you seek?"
Coming up soon here we will be hit with Blumhouse's upcoming TV series based on their hit horror franchise THE PURGE. And today we have six – count 'em SIX – new posters for the upcoming USA & SyFy series. You can check them out below!
I have to say, I don't know if this series is really going to be for me – all of the PURGE movies thus far have left me underwhelmed – but mother of God is "Will you hide or will you seek?" a great tagline for this new series. At least we know – as usual – the marketing team behind this franchise knows what they're doing.
Scripted and executive produced by PURGE creator James DeMonaco, the TV version of The Purge is a 10 episode event that
revolves around a 12-hour period when all crime, including murder, is legal. Set in an altered America ruled by a totalitarian political party, the series follows several seemingly unrelated characters living in a small city. As the clock winds down, each character is forced to reckon with their past as they discover how far they will go to survive the night.
This new series comes to us from Blumhouse Television and Universal Cable Productions. It's executive produced by DeMonaco, Jason Blum, premiere episode director Anthony Hemingway, Michael Bay, Brad Fuller, Andrew Form, Sebastien K. Lemercier, and showrunner Thomas Kelly.
The show's cast includes Gabriel Chavarria, Lili Simmons, Sabrina Gennarino, Jessica Garza, Amanda Warren, Colin Woodell, Hannah Anderson, Lee Tergesen, William Baldwin, and Fiona Dourif.
The premiere episode will be simulcast on USA Network and Syfy on Tuesday, September 4th.
