Audience Member I just read on imdb that Joseph Ciminera who played Bret & directed this movie has his own cooking show on PBS which I thought was cool.Anyways, Talk about weird, Purification was a weird movie.I felt like I was watching an episode of The Twilight Zone (A 1 hour & 23 minutes episode) for mostly all of the movie then at the very end, It seemed to go religious on me.I don't know if Purification was suppose to be a horror flick, a movie with a hidden message or a horror movie with a hidden message (Maybe somebody can explain it to me) The best thing about Purification was Joeseph Ciminera's character Bret.He played a straight up D-Bag A-Hole & he played it well.He's a guy you LOVE to HATE.I don't know if this is a movie that's worth taking a looking at but I do know if this is a movie you do take a look at, You won't be looking at it more than once Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review william s A poorly acted low budget Jacobs ladder type storyline just with no depth or substance. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Bret Fitzpatrick is a self-absorbed businessman who is thrust into a nightmarish realm between dreams and reality, where the demons of his past return to haunt him. Director Joe Ciminera ushers in the JACOB'S LADDER of Independent cinema in PURIFICATION, a redemption tale that bends the edges of reality. PURIFICATION is a fresh step up in terms of originality as the director looks to find hope and meaning amongst the horror. Ciminera stands out against the rest of the cast with an strong performance in the lead. The same cannot be said for many of the side characters, unfortunately, who either overact or underplay their respective roles. While the overall theme becomes quite apparent from the very beginning, PURIFICATION lacks a steady sense of continuity between events to drive the narrative. It often feels disjointed and incidental as a result, although this can add to the dream logic of the plot. With some revision and reworking, PURIFICATION could stand to be a much more powerful viewing experience, but the underlying themes of crime and redemption are enough to carry the audience through to the film's climactic ending. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I already seen this in the movie theaters in nYC. Cant understand why it wasn't show in many theaters.
