You have to admit that Army Of Darkness definitely has common horror themes...The Necronomicon, Living dead rising from graves, demons, chainsaws, blood and guts, the supernatural...It's undeniable...

As for the rating...I was gonna say probably for the violence, but it's already been mentioned...my personal opinion is that it should be PG13

its just that its set in medieval england which gives it a D&D feel. personally, i think pans labyrinth has as many horror themes as army... they both have elements of both types of movies. what is van helsing then? fantasy or horror? or dog's shit? i'm saying the latter

Lots of fun slapstick gore but there's a boobshot too I believe. Probably what sent the fuddyduddys over the edge.

Haha, seriously, in which scene did you saw some guts? I saw a fountain of blood in the beginning (yes, Iīve seen the entire film if you didnīt thought so) but thatīs it.

dunno if thats enough. the league of extraordinary gentlemen had a vamp not to mention mr hyde, one of the original horror characters of literature. the brothers grimm had witches and exorcisms. i'm sticking to my guns here, fantasy!
