Seriously, how is this movie only rated PG-13? The first time I saw the trailer (below) in the theater — and in front of something that was not a horror movie — I about wet myself.

What’s the R-rated movie you were too young to be watching?








I agree. I went to Twilight with my book club (which is pretty much a group of little old ladies). That is not the preview I wanted to see!
Me too, this is the current “cover the kids eyes!” commercial that keeps popping up…
Hear, hear! I saw this commercial once, and changed the channel every time it came on after that. The guy twisting his head sideways? The creepy undead kid? Eeeeeeek!! The commercial should be rated R!!
My 12-year-old daughter literally ran into my room last night and yelled at me,” I just saw the scariest commercial EVER!! I’m never going to be able to go to sleep”. It was for The Unborn. Doesn’t the FCC have rules about what they can show before 10 pm? And honestly, I have to close my eyes whenever the commercial comes on, too. Ick!!!!!!
Totally! My crazy 14 yr old vampire loving niece who isn’t scared of anything screamed at this trailer.
How come we can have terrifyingly creepy commercials like this on network TV during prime time, but it takes something as tame as a butt or a nipple to send the PTC over the edge in terms of what children should be watching?
Scariest thing since that Emily Rose movie trailer. HATE IT!
This movie looks pretty dang weird and creepy. But what I want to know is, is who is this lovely looking lady thats in it? She looks a lot like Megan Fox. Perhaps sans the weirdness? Me likey
ugh, i felt the same way about the “taken” trailer before benjamin button. one of the most frightening trailers i’ve ever seen – i remembered it more than the entire movie. i’m dreading when it’s close enough to the release date to be on television, because i may have to stop watching entirely.
PeterBilt – the young lady is Odette Yustman who was also in Cloverfield. Much better looking (and classier) than Ms. Fox.
I HATE this trailer, and what I hate most about it is they insist on showing it during prime time when my kids could possibly see it and I’ll be up all night with them having hideous nightmares. Just another reason to keep the useless TV off. Good job, Networks!
Whew! I’m so glad I’m not the only person who thought this trailer was scary. I hate scary movies anyway, but this trailer freaks me out. My daughter caught part of it during the holidays and asked me to change the channel.
It looks like they showed all the good parts in the trailer. It doesn’t look scary at all.
Yes! This trailer freaks me OUT! And I see it at all hours so I know kids are seeing it!
It looks really good.
And these “Won’t somebody PLEASE think of the children!?” posts are cracking me up.
