Politics and horror film mix

Zoe Soul, left, and Carmen Ejogo portray a daughter and mother in the sequel “The Purge: Anarchy.”
“The Purge: Anarchy” is a political polemic disguised as a horror film. I view that as a good thing, but horror fans may not. “The Purge” was released one year ago while the country was still feeling the effects of the recession more acutely and its premise tapped into class tensions that have pervaded the country for years.
