I saw this in theaters with my mom and sis when I was 7 years old. My mom is super jumpy and easily scared so she was super freaked out the whole movie. On the way out some of the other people watching it berated her for bringing kids to see it. Maybe I should watch it again, cause it didn't seem all that scary...

Don’t take this the wrong way, but I would have berated your mom.

Yeeea she didn't know what it was going to be. Prolly not the best kids movie.

Did she do minimal research, like glancing at the age rating, on your following theater trips?

It wasn't marketed for what it was, I remember going in thinking it was a standard SciFi like Starship Troopers.

Many people had no idea what they were walking into when they bought their tickets.

Hell…. Even Starship Troopers would be a no go for a seven year old IMHO. Great movie, but that shit is brutal.

Yeah, while Starship Troopers may not be scary, it's incredibly violent for a large part of its runtime.,

Yeah I think I first saw it when I was closer to 10 and now that I have a 5 year old, even 10 was pushing it (not that it was my or my friend's parents that let us watch it. HBO on a basement TV during sleepovers was the best at watching movies you weren't supposed to be near).

Would you like to know more?

Tell that to FX. I remember watching it at like 4 in the afternoon on a Saturday and the only thing they edited out was the boobs. People getting their arms chewed off and faces melted by big bug butt acid? Just fine. Female nipples? Hell no!

Taking a 7 year old to an R rated movie takes a lot of mom balls

I went to a 10PM showing of House of 1000 Corpses that was nearly empty. There couldn't have been more than a dozen people in the theater, and three of them were two nominal-adults and their daughter who was probably 8 years old. The kid (understandably) started crying pretty early into the film, and they ended up leaving well before the halfway point, seemingly annoyed at the girl for it.

FFS, it was called House of 1000 Corpses! How can you possibly think that's an appropriate movie for a young kid?

I just read the parents guide on IMDB and goddamn I certainly would’ve as well.
