Well, it’s officially ‘official’: ALIENS VS PREDATOR: REQUIEM has been slapped with an R rating. Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice! This may be one of the more satisfying R rating news that I’ve ever heard, mostly because this is a direct kick in the ass to the PG-13 trash AVP, which should have been R from the get-go.
Not that it’s too much of a surprise, considering the film’s trailer, which featured gore galore (check it out below if you’ve forgotten). So what’s REQUIEM R for? violence, gore and language. The only thing missing here from making it the ‘perfect’ movie experience would be nudity, but hell… I’ll take it!
ALIENS VS PREDATOR: REQUIEM (still the dumbest name ever…) hits theaters everywhere, in all of it’s R rated glory, December 25th. Let’s hope Fox doesn’t try to re-cut and resubmit for a PG-13 between now and then…
