Blumhouse has had a ton of success in the horror genre lately, and the studio is now turning its head to one of the classics: Halloween.
Jamie Lee Curtis is back as Laurie Strode, and the upcoming canon-breaking sequel has been officially rated R, but why?
The MPAA rating system is a crucial aspect of film production, and ultimately determines what type of an audience will be admitted to each new film.
For the horror franchise, this can be an especially interesting process, as studios must debate if they want a larger demographic of moviegoers, or an unencumbered and terrifying flick.
