The only Purging I'll be doing is Purging this DVD I bought!
30 October 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Bought this film from an Asda Supermarket & took it with a pinch of salt as to it being good or a good watch, but the cover art looked good so I bought it anyway for a cheap price.

So when I finally did get round to watching this film a few weeks later while I was away on holiday to Alton Towers. I watched this film to see what it was like. I can tell you now it was the biggest pile of sh!te I've ever seen, if not one of them as it was boring & had only a few bits of action here & there but very little.

About 3/4 of the film is just the family getting ready for a barbecue, chatting, arguing, pi$$ing around, more chatting, setting the table, shaky cam work & other pointless sh!te which for me honestly made me forget what film I was watching as I got lost after 30-40 minutes in.

Then when some action DOES happen it's like The Blair Witch Project almost, if not a little better. But that doesn't make up for the 3/4 waste of time footage I just saw which had nothing to do with the film. If anything it's quite disappointing, lazy & incredibly sloppy to go for the "invisible being" BS. It's like other horrors not having back story & the Directors/Writers

Furthermore, the medical parts laced in between & the interviews didn't help, but again, this film focused way too much on story. I was surprised to find this to be a 77 minute film. 77 minutes? You've got to be joking right? Because even for a film THAT short you'd think there'd be more action sh!te going on & less story which even then makes you wonder why the need to drag the story out so much if the film was that short!

The film felt watery & made little sense. I simply don't see how they could have a film so short, yet babble on for 3/4 of the 77 minute run time so long that you forget it's a horror film & more like a damn home film & still make it like any other boring film with a longer run time (i.e. 94 minutes) with little to no action. How can they look at this & say it's good? Come on!

I overall found this to be a colossal waste of time film. It was boring, dragged on & had little to no action near the end!
