a horror movie without bad language and nudity?

[BakeTheMooCow]

Can anyone think of one?

I'm not looking for something like The Sixth Sense. I want a really scary creepy film that has little or no language and no nudity...

and does The Shining fit in that category?

Thanks.

No, The Shining had that really messed up naked old lady in the tub.

To capture how much she made me want to blow chunks you would have to.

Watch Marlon Brando have leeches placed on his rectum while the senior citizens home gets oiled up and spanked with greasy bacon as you watch a film of someone getting their penis chopped off and eating it while feeding rosanne a baby.

That's how dirty and disgusting the old naked lady from the shining made me feel.

*Shudder*

There was no nudity in The Others and bad language wasn't there, either, unless I missed it.

[Requiem-for-a-Dream]

Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Although Extreme in nature, there was NO nudity (although Marilyn Burns looked great and showed some pokies), and no gratuitous language.

Bloody Murder had bad language but no nudity.

Also, in the Shining, there was also a younger nude chick who then turns into the diseased old women (thanks very much Kubrick).

Definitely not! There's some ancient ass lurking around in that flick. It's actually the most disturbing part of the whole film. I'm very anti-granny when it comes to them being naked. There's also some younger muff involved, as well as some animal porn. And of course, some naughty language floating around. Definitely not a film for children under 3.

i can sit here a make a huge list of horror movies that have no nudity but ones without nudity and bad language is another story.cant think of one at all

[Dr Martin Luther Loomis]

Shit - I guess my post is kinda useless, as I see two other people pretty much posted the same thing. I gotta stop getting caught up in the TV while typing - that ALL IN THE FAMILY gets me everytime!

[FeverDog420]

What about Poltergeist?

[Dehydrator]

I can't gurantee for the language but SUSPIRIA might be the movie you're looking for.

The classic universal horrors from the 30s-40s don't have swearing/nudity, and they can't really be said to have much violence by todays standards, but they are still horror movies. And damn good ones, most of them. Dracula, Frankenstein, Wolfman, The Mummy, Bride of Frankenstein, The Black Cat, The Raven etc. etc. etc.

[Spider-Man]

I can only think of Evil Dead, great scary movie and I don't remeber any swearing..there were tit shots but so not fun...

[Lady Summerisle]

HORROR OF DRACULA and most of Chrisptopher Lee's 1960's offerings.

[screamking2k]

Scream? Has no nudity and does have very little langauge

[screamking2k]

I know what you did last summer also even though its a teeny bop-er movie

[SteveSzyk]

The classy old ghost stories: The Uninvited, The Changeling, 13 Ghosts (original), The Haunting (original), and House on Haunted Hill (original).

Night of the Living Dead

Carnival of Souls

Freaks

[countchocula]

Actually, there is brief nudity in Night of the Living Dead via a female ghoul. The best horror film that is completely void of nudity and "R" language is The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

I was speaking of the original Night...are you refering to Night90 with the nekked zombie walkin up to the house?

Also I wanted to mention, there is very little profanity in Jaws...other than 'shit' once or twice...and Chrissies barely seen nude at the beggining , and it's all in shadow and dark moonlite, so you only get a suggestion of nudity really.

[countchocula]

The original Night also displays some nudity.

[Dumb-Fokker-**]

Well, unles you count disgusting zombie tits, than Dead-Alive, to my knowledge, has NO bad language, and No nudity (except the aforementioned zombie tits).

OK you got me man, where? I have watched Night at least 30 times, and don't recall any nudity.

A little while ago, I rented The Last Slumber Party. Now, I figured, ok a slumber party movie, cool. But as I later found out, there is no nudity.

No shower scenes, no sex scenes, not even any gratuitous tit shots. I can't remember any swearing, but then again I don't remember much about that movie. So I guess it counts.

For Suspiria, I don't think there's any swearing there.

I don't think the two Gremlin movies have any swearing either.
Depending on your definition of bad language, Arachnaphobia, Bad Taste (if I remember correctly), Buffy, The Vampire Slayer, the Critters movies(if they're to be considered horror), and a bunch of others, and that's not counting all the pre-70s horror movies.

[HalloweenShape31]

How about House On Haunted Hill (1958)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
Nosferatu both the original and the 1979 remake

[countchocula]

Thingsgoinon, I believe it's when Ben, Tom, and Judy are about to go get the gas that we see brief zombie nudity. This is a fuzzy recollection, but I'm positive that it exists.

The funny story behind this is according to the makers of TCM on the documentry about the film- Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The shocking truth- there was no sex or swearing because the first plan was to get a PG rating with the MPAA. A PG rating! Well they may have tried, but given the fact the film was banned for 24 years here in the UK I find this fact amusing.

[JCR]

One more point on this, having thought about it a little:

Here is one of many statements the UK censors made about TCM before agreeing to release it:

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Possibly the most notorious feature is the relentless pursuit of the 'Final Girl' throughout the last half hour or so of the film. The heroine in peril is a staple of the cinema since the earliest days. It is nonetheless legitimate to question the unusual emphasis THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE places on the pursuit of a defenceless and screaming female over such an extended period.</font>

The point is that probably the British censors did think there is a sexual element to this film, hence the above quote. This would rule it out of this topic, possibily.
