Shocking Moments In U & PG Rated Movies

Ghostbusters (1984)

Shocking Moment: Paranormal Sexual-Activity Ivan Reitman€™s supernatural comedy is something of a family favourite - and it's also become a childhood classic for many of us who grew up in the '80s and €˜90s. Therefore it€™s pretty easy to forget that Ghostbusters is actually full of risqué humour and some nasty scares such as the creepy librarian ghost. Let's not forget the frequent cussing, or the wonderful line €œI want you inside me€ from a scantily clad Sigourney Weaver. However, none of this compares to the scene involving Dan Aykroyd and a very horny ghost, which will quickly make parents reach for the remote. Daddy€.. What€™s the ghost doing??Just helping him undress for bedtime€€..But why is the man so pleased...?Because he loves bedtime !

Watership Down (1978)

Shocking Moment: The Whole Thing !!! Watership Down can be easily misinterpreted by the uninitiated as a cutesy animation about frolicking rabbits. What actually lies in store is an emotionally shattering and traumatic tear-jerker, filled with graphic and gory depictions of cute bunnies being torn to shreds and the realistic struggles that face such animals in the wild. Watership Down is ultimately a beautiful film, but it€™s a harsh and difficult one to take in at a young age. The disturbing and bleak imagery leaves an effect on both youngsters and adults that can never be forgotten. It speaks volumes that the BBFC still receive complaints to this day about the films U rating.
