PG13?
Always found it confounding how the MPAA rates some horror movies with scary scenes suitable for kids.
shareI don't really see 13 year olds as kids.
shareIn many countries, you're still legally a child until 14 when you're considered an adolescent.
shareThirteen is the first number with the word teen in it.
shareThat's beside the point. Most countries give a 15 or 16 certificate for horror movies.
shareThat's irrelevant to the question on whether they're kids or young adults.
shareYes, vast majority of horror movies here in the UK are rated 15 or 18. There was an outcry years ago when Hammer's The Woman in Black was awarded a 12 certificate. All those braindead parents who didn't bother to read what the film was about but just took the kids along because 'Harry Potter' was in it, had to take their crying children out of the cinema! The sequel got a 15.
shareThe Others was a rare exception and it is rated 12 both in Germany and the UK which is quite baffling considering how eerie and terrifying it is.
