Movies What's the first R rated movie you saw as a kid

I was 9 years old. I think my dad may have botched this one.

Rambo? Some horror movie otherwise.

 

[RollSonnenRoll]

There's hardly any cussing and no nudity but some pretty nasty gore with the lions. Parents watched it first and gave me the ok. I would have been 8 or 9.

The first real R movie would have probably been Starship Troopers. My grandparents had directv with the movie channels. I would stay at their house and my grandma would let me stay up after she went to bed. I remember watching a lot of those staples like Robocop and Die hard on those nights

Wes Cravens New Nightmare

Left me scarred and crying same night because I had a hole in my wall and my father told me Freddy's tongue will stretch out & get me

This was last week.

 

[Beechwood]

Might have been All That Jazz. Saw it my mistake more or less.

 

[Jesus X]

My parents did not care we had all sorts of R rated films like bloodsport. return of the living dead 3 which was very violent and had nudity. We had leprechaun on vhs. We had terminator on VHS which was also R iirc. We had cyborg which was traumatic for me as a kid lol

I saw the puppet master films as a kid.

Mine was this movie called The Entity, which was about a woman being haunted by a poltergeist, and even getting raped by a poltergeist

I'd probably think it's lame now, but I saw that shit when I was a little kid and it scared the fuck outta me

 

[Simple Southerner]

Jaws is rated PG

Yeah it's rated pg didn't they show tits in that opening scene? Lol

From Google

The original film Jaws received a PG rating. This rating was given in 1975, even though some argued it should have been an R due to the intense scenes of violence. While the PG rating reflected the film's violence being perpetrated by nature, rather than humans, some found the rating insufficient for the film's disturbing and terrifying content.

 

[Pittie Petey]

I was watching R rated movies pretty much since the day I was born so I dont know what the first one was but my Halloween costume in kindergarten and 1st grade was one of the Baseball Furies from The Warriors so that one obviously had a big impact on me
