well...it's definitely not an R (i got to see it in theatres here in TO...super great crowd). but it doesn't need to be. i wouldn't say PG-13 though...while it's no splatter movie, there is definitely some killin goin on. i think it makes great use of sound effects and acting chops in the place of splatter. and the halloween atmosphere in this movie is absolutely fantastic. watch it with friends! and if there aren't enough chunks for ya, follow it up with dead alive or something ;)
