It's weird; it's like a family movie except...


There's a no holds barred sex scene at the beginning, followed by a gore-fest that (even if it isn't the worst ever) is still out of a child's range imo. And then the rest of the film seems pretty tame to me. Maybe still scary for a kid, but if Return to Oz was a children's film then this most definitely is, apart from the first ten minutes. Enjoyed the film, but bizarre.

Let's go inconspicuously...through the window.

You might be stretching it too far saying it was a no holds barred sex scene. There's just one shot of her breast. The rest is movie magic.

Cut the opening and this is an easy PG-13. Can't believe the MPAA was ready to slap it with an NC-17 because of the opening alone. Also, yes, the sex scene wasn't explicit, but it was almost filmed in a softcore kind've way. It reminded me a bit of the sex scene in Jason Goes to Hell, and I'm not surprised the MPAA were after it. I see what the OP means because the rest of the film kind've felt like a slightly scarier Disney October film.
