    Horror:PG-13 or R? (which is better)?

    R no doubt about it Pg-13 is filled with the same Boo and scary ghost crap that has plagued horror since the 90s

    There are great R rated films as well as PG-13 rated films. R tends to have more gore and bad language. Story telling is everything.

    Exactly. I don't give a crap what the rating is if the story is good.

    I don't care how good the story is, it's always better when there's blood, guts, gore, tits and ass.... these elements can make a bad movie watchable and good movie even more enjoyable... so I'd say I'm definately for R-rated... though I'd prefer unrated...

    By taking my statement out of context, you missed my point completely.... what I meant was it doesn't matter if the story is utterly mindblowingly fantastic uber-quality oscar-calibur material, having some blood, guts, gore, tits and ass in the movie is just gonna make it even more enjoyable for me.

    If a movie has a terrible story, as long as it has the afformentioned attributes, it can save it from being a total and complete waste of my time. "Wow that movie sucked... but at least it showed that redhead's tits, and that guy getting ripped in half was pretty nifty..."

    Oh sorry about that. To me it initially read as though you don't care about a story, you just want to see the afformentioned things.

    I think Signs was a great reminder of what can be accomplished with a PG-13 rating, just so long as the filmmaker is talented and has something to bring to the table. And all over-appreciated hype put aside, The Ring is also a pretty good example in the same sense. I think The Sixth Sense doesn't even need to be mentioned. Even if you didn't find any of them scary or even entertaining, I think anyone who really appreciates horror has to be able to see the value of what's in front of them, especially when it's been created under the restrictions of PG-13 rating.

    Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to M. Night Shamalyan's first R rated movie this summer; think it's called The Happening.

    Here's the problem for me. Companies cut out the death scenes, the blood and gore, sex, foul language basically its edited for children. Why? Because apparently they assume PG13 opens the doors to a larger audience but what these idiots don't understand is you cannot stop kids. They will watch R rated movies and M rated games. Some of the biggest horror movies are R, some of the biggest selling games are 18+.

    Every PG13 sucks ass unless it involves suspense, ghosts, or some type of thriller and even then most suck. Slashers, werewolf, vampire or zombies cannot be good under PG13 and the last few years of shit have proved that. People whine about its all about 'story' lol how many horror movies can you name with amazing storylines? hardly. Horror is about 1 thing, to scare not about writing, horror has not been about writing for years, why do you think horror is never up for best picture or any oscar? Horror is about fun, so stop making the genre into something its not and expecting shit you wont ever have anymore

    People will say "Why do you have to see the kills? Why do you need the gore and sex? use your imagination" I say, the purpose of a fucking movie is to not imagine shit but see it. movies are a visual experience, I want to see shit, allow me the opportunity to decide what I want to see. In the old days if you didn't want to see bloody shit you know what you did? Close your eyes, and imagine it like a pussy.

    Now, as a soceity with a horror genre that's afraid of taking chances, we are forced to be pussies watching movies edited for kids.

    think about of your favorite movies.

    oh the shotgun scene in Maniac! oh the zombies ripping dude apart in the elevator! oh final destination! Jason hacking people to bits! all visual gore am I right? So if you love this shit so much why are you so convinced it needs to be stopped? Tina being slapped around the walls in blood. Hellraiser torturing people with fishhooks and ripping flesh off. oh yeah, maybe I'm wrong all the best horror was PG13.

    Can you name 1 amazing scene in a PG13 horror movie?

    I thought the beginning to Boogeyman was pretty nifty. Too bad the rest of the movie couldn't be a quarter as good as the first few minutes.

    Well I probably could if I tried. I love gore, sex, bad language. The more of them all, the better, but I'm not gonna deny that there might be good PG-13 movies out there that are done really great.

    Would you have liked Dawn of the Dead as much if it was a PG flick?

    I'd say those are your favorite movie scenes.

    Signs - Alien Video from Brazil
    The Sixth Sense - Ghost girl under the bed.
    Poltergeist - Creepy all over.
    The Ring, It, and The Others had some pretty eerie scenes as well.

    Gore doesn't equal a good horror movies. All it does is make me go, "eww gross" inside my head. A chilling scene will stay with me for a while.

    I prefer an R rating being a fan 80's Horror with their cheesy gore and nudity.

    The Changeling is the only PG movie I can think of that I really liked.
    What was Fright Night rated?
