what do you think about the rating?


the rating in the u.k(15)in my opinion, doesn't suit it at all. it is very gory and I would rate it 18. what do you think about the rating?

Over the last 10 years or so alot of films that would have got an 18 in the UK in the past are now getting a 15. Black Xmas is another example of this. It's pretty gory - the killer goes about gouging eyes out and what not - but that only recieved a 15. So did House of Wax. Then there's alot of blood and gore in war films like Saving Private Ryan and We Were Soldiers - both 15 in the UK. I don't think there's anything wrong with this as it goes. By 15 the majority of people watch what they want whatever. The only thing that surprises me is films where the c word is used, even only once (like American Beauty), automatically get an 18. The film 'The Hole' was released at the cinemas with a 15 certificate, but the dvd with an 18 just because there was a deleted scene on the special features where Thora Birch mutters the c word!!! It makes no sense that something as silly as a simple swear word would get a film a higher rating then many that show bloody and gory killing.

In Mexico this film is rated C(18). But #4 is rated B(12) and that doesn´t suit it.

I love classic monsters.
