The Ring and The Grudge were pretty good, Boogeyman sucked.

I agree, a horror movie does not have to have an R rating to be a decent horror film. And there are many R rated films that aren't any riskier or in general, any better than the PG-13 films. I wasn't pleased with The Ring because my expectations were too high, but I enjoyed The Grudge and think it is better than several horror films of the last few years.
I am however extremely tired of studios interfering with a director's creative vision and exerting control over how far they are allowed to go. That bugs me. Craven should have been allowed to make the movie he wanted; and I am certain it would have been far more successful for everyone involved.
