QuoteAnyway, I'm not a parent or anything but I disagree with the 15 rating.  It's more R rated than 300 in my opinion. 

The BBFC rated 300 as a 15 too.

as well as Scott's ALIEN

So Alien was 15 in UK. Do you know if Brett Death scene was edited or not?

it was rated X back in 79, but 2003 directors cut was rated 15.

Thank you!

But that was for the Halloween release, the film on the SE DVD is 18 again.

it doesn' change the fact, that was the same, good, old alien, and it had added scene with cocooned Dallas asking with painful voice to kill him.

it's pretty simple guys. with years ratings of movies with violent content are falling down in UK. there's nothing wrong with avp:r itself

i can bet, that if predator 1 and 2, aliens nad alien3 were redistributed to big screen again today, every single one of them would get 15 rating by bbfc.

Why are people bothered? We already know it's gory and has bad language. Are people angry purely because of the label 15? If so, that's ridiculous.

As I said, Alien was 15 when it was in cinemas a few years ago. We're getting the same film in all its adult detail. If it was exactly the same cut but someone randomly decided to give it an 18 it would make no difference.

While I had also assumed we'd be getting an 18, I'm also not fussed about it being a 15. Like Lovely just said, and like I used to tell you way back when - and if I recall, you didn't believe me - Alien was re-released as a 15. It was gory, not to the level of other stuff but still. Predator isn't that gory. Not to todays standards. Have you not seen 30 Days of Night?

its not just about gore, its also about tone- sense of threat. I guess this movie is more action orientated and dosent get an scarier than say, "Aliens".

I would argue that Predator was a far more gruesome movie than Predator 2. Sure 2 is very "bloody" and violent, but aside from some skinned bodies and Keys cut in-half by the Smart-Disc(where'd the top half go?) I don't think there was any significant shots of gore in it. Part 1 has a blown open chest, skinned bodies, a disembowled corpse, close-up on brains being blown-out, close-up spine ripping etc'etc'. Sure it's certainly not a splatterfest, but the gore that's there is very harsh and graphic.
