It's an 18 in the US. 15 in the UK (though it was an 18 until 2010).
I would be rather annoyed if my 11 y.o. kid came home saying someone's parent had shown them that film.
- bencollier49 12y agoAgreed, I'm actually pretty shocked that they reduced it to a 15, there's some pretty strong stuff in there. 11-year-olds are young enough to get terrible nightmares from films like Aliens - if it was my child who wanted to watch something age-appropriate and got shouted down, I'd be pretty furious.
- brazzy 12y agoMeh. I've had nightmares from a movie once in my life. Which one? That lovely children's classic "The Wizard of Oz". That witch was scary!!
- thret 12y agoReally? It was the monkeys with wheels that were too freaky for me.
- stcredzero 12y agoThat was The Wiz?
- thret 12y agoOh, you're right in that I was wrong. I was thinking of the movie Return to Oz (1985).
- fennecfoxen 12y agoThe wheelers? Freakier than the witch with the gallery of heads? If you say so.
- jasonwocky 12y ago> Meh. I've had nightmares from a movie once in my life. Some of us weren't so lucky.
- walshemj 12y agoThey removed the realy dark scene Dorothy is in the Witch's dungeon and sings a dark reprise of "some where over the rainbow" It only exists as a outtake (its on yahoo) as it was to upsetting.
- lamuerteflaca 12y agoFor me it was The Exorcist. Watched it at 7 or 8. Had nightmares every night for a week. Didn't really learn my lesson though.
- psykovsky 12y agoHappened to me with A Nightmare on Elm Street. I was 6. Also didn't learn my lesson, but never again in my life I had a nightmare. Freddie was really scary, all else can said to be a dream if Freddie isn't there. :)
- celticninja 12y agoThe flying monkeys scared that shit out of me.
- vidarh 12y agoChaplin's "Limelight" haunted me for years, because I got it into my head that he actually died in the scene were his role persona died. I saw plenty of much more graphic stuff that didn't phase me for a moment.
- thaumasiotes 12y agoI've had nightmares from a movie once (and only once) too. It was The Care Bears Movie.
- bashinator 12y agoThe only movie that gave me severe nightmares at that age, was E.T.
- NoMoreNicksLeft 12y agoMy mother took me to the theater and watched it with me. I was 11. No nightmares. If anything, I was the weird kid at school, because everyone else was watching Nightmare on Elm Street when they were 8 and 9, and mom wouldn't let me.
- RexRollman 12y agoRated R is 17.
- walshemj 12y agoI think Alien was an 18 (X rated) in the Uk not sure about Aliens
- alahache 12y agoIn France it's rated 12+. It's almost the same for all movies with just violence/blood in it. When I was 11, I used to watch a lot of them. I guess it's okay if the parent is there watching the film with them.
