Horror movies that should have gotten an R, PG-13, or NC-17

Mine would be Valentine for PG-13. It looked like they were dying to get the rating. Almost no language or violence(meaning by blood). If they cut out the ax scene, wax scene, and glass scene(ouch), it would've gotten a PG-13.

APRIL FOOL'S DAY should have been rated PG-13 since there was virtually no carnage.

I would say that The Omen should have been rated PG-13.It wasn't even bad...Just a little blood here and there.

The graphic scenes in "Event Horizon" certainly warrant an NC-17 rating; in fact I think that's what it originally got before it was trimmed, but I'm not sure.

"Hellraiser" was nearly rated X; in today's climate, it would never snag an R rating. /ubb/frown.gif

I've always thought that Army of Darkness deserved a PG-13 rating. There was one small flash of a breast (nothing major) and Bruce only said "fuck" once in the film. A pg-13 film can contain both of those elements if they are not extreme, which they weren't in AOD.

I Agree entirley with army of darkness. Also what kind of world are we living in if disney movies are rated pg witch means u gotta be 12 or over to see it alone. What the fuck?! The rating system is fucked if you ask me. /ubb/mad.gif

It used to be if you said FUCK once, you would automatically get an R rating. Now a days, it seems like the MPAA is just throwing ratings on a movie with no reason behind it. SUPERNOVA was pg-13 and had nudity and sex in it. did the MPAA even watch it or were they board out of their mind and fall asleep during it?
I worked in a movie theater for 2 years and I would get complaints from people (like this was my fault) that a movie was rated pg-13 or whatever and it had language or nudity in it. I had somebody coming back complaining about MAGNOLIA, telling me it was the worst peice of garbage they had ever seen and were shocked that we would play something like that. (I didn't make it! I'm not the decision maker around here!)

The one thing I loved the most were parents that would bring their kids to R rated movies with them. Best one was HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL. I warned their parents too that it had some pretty scary stuff in it that is way to intense for kids of their age. They of course didn;t listen and later the kids would come running out of the theater crying and the parents would come back to box office yelling at us, demanding their money back. I fuckin warned them.

It was then that I realized that most people are morons.

You're right, Prairiedogking. Most people are morons. When I went to see Hannibal, there were kids sitting behind me that couldn't have been any older than 8 years old. Suprisingly, they laughed at most of the movie.

Anyway, about movies that got ratings they didn't deserve. Bad Moon was basically PG except for the brief sex scene in the beginning. The movie was very bland and could pass for an episode of Goosebumps.

How did they they let that stuff in SCARY MOVIE go by with an R?

[someguy]

Scary Movie didn't need an R rating. I thought this was a shed of hope for the MPAA to do better ratings. Anyway, do any of you remember two little movies called Lost Souls and Bless the Child? They got rated PG over here in Canada. I think that they should've gotten PG-13. Even Dr. T and the Woman and The Big Tease got reated PG also. Other ones I know are:Saving Grace and My 5 Wives. That's all I know.
