Me neither. PG-13 bull____.

Reminds me of The Exorcism of Emily Rose.

You and your R rated movies.

It doesn't mean it wouldn't be good. But I don't care for movies like this.

Well, the reason I like R-Rated horror flicks is, they can push further, and that gives you a sense of unease. What are they going to do now? HOLY ____! DID SHE EAT A BABY!? Wow...creepy!

That, and those little annoying brats that go to the movies every friday...ugh. I hate them.

Ratings have nothing to do with how good a movie is.

No. But it sets up the tone. And if a movie feels like it's only giving 30 % of what it should...then it could suck.


I wish I could get people to understand my quarrel....but I dont think I ever will.

Probably because you don't make sense.

It does a bit, but without the courtroom trial.

I like the documentry feel of this movie.

All I know is that the bearjew produced it so I'll probably watch it

The movies of yesteryear that really stuck with you left all the gore to your imagination.

I like gore as much as the next guy, but Hitchcock sure didn't need it.

I think it's a really good movie, and a bit underated, but The Exotcist is my favorite exorcism movie.

I'm actually glad you brought this up! Because it'll prove my point.

Now my issue with the PG-13 horror is that they never ever show anything. Now...true, a scene where a man has a knife, and starts to unbuckle his pants infront of a beat up women, and then cutting it right there, is a lot more powerful then showing him rape her.

However, if you never show anything, the audience never senses the danger. For example....

Alien. Hardly any gore...but the scenes that there was gore, really had an impact. It gave the film that sense of "Oh ____...the cuffs are off now" kind of thing.

I'm not asking for much. I just dont enjoy horror movies that get restricted just to make money.

Oh it is possible to make a PG-13 horror film work....but that happens so very, very rarely.

Tired genre. This one looks middle-of-the-road.

we all know eventually they'll have to somehow recreate exorcism movies

I would have to disagree with this. Take the Wolverine movie for example. When it came out as PG-13 I knew it wasn't going to be as good as it should have been. It didn't suck, but could have been so much more.

First Conan movie. Rated R, kicked ass. Second one, PG-13, sucked.

I think this movie will probably be ok, but the PG-13 may limit the amound of horror in it. JMHO.
