Ratings Inquiry- Dawn of the Dead 1978

[Vampenguin]

Ok, I know itz rated "R", but thats all I know as far as the ratings go.


Im refering to whatever version of the movies is included in the Dvimax edition disc.

I would assume that it has excessive amounts of gore.....ut how about language? Is the much swearing? Or nudity?

Thanks in advance

One small scene with some nudity (you have to be paying attention, and it's not very impressive at all. Francine smokin a sig in bed with stephen, hunched over from far away, you dont really see anything either.)
Swearing isnt TOO bad. Mostly the beginning with wooley, he spouts just about every racial slur there is and says "fucking" alot, but that is the beginning.

I garuntee it is R because of the gore. the very beginning and near the end are bloody and gut-filled to an almost obscene level.

Techincly....you're right. But it was formerly rated "R", so thats what Im goinge by. Blockbuster has a 18+ tag on it, too

There wasnt very much gore in the one i saw. The only REAL gore i saw was the helicoptor scene, and the shotgun blast......or it seems. I thought Day of the Dead was way more gorey. Who knows maybe i saw the R rated version..

Zombie getting head sliced open by helocopter scenes was somewhat gorey.

The guy getting his head exploded was very gorey. The zombie taking chuunks out of his wife in the beginning was too (practically the whole beginning was extremely gorey)

the really abd stuff is toward the end when the zombies start tearing people open and playing with their intestines. not to mention dragging severed body parts all over the floor.

Yep, that one too. Also, when roger and when Stephen get shot in the head, there is a geyser of blood spewing from their melons
