Jacob's ladder
 
Tonight I might go see Jacob's ladder at a friends (I just bought it), but my friend is bringing his GF and I just want to make sure it isn't too gory for her cuz she is a wuss.

So is it gory or gf friendly?

There is some decent gore...but that wont turn his gf off. There are a couple of other scenes which will make her squirm real bad.

I m assuming you have the latest DVD release...so my suggestion is, dont let her watch it unless she has a strong mentality or stomach.

Thanks V, I guess we will stick to Halloween (Original) instead. I just bought Halloween, Deliverance, Texax Chainsaw, and Jacob's Ladder. Movie night wooo

Jacob's Ladder will give you PTSD.
But go ahead and watch it, it's one of the best movies ever made.

I personally don't think it's gory at all, it's just a mind trip that's all :rolleyes:
