The horror-thrillerApartment 7Ais now streaming on Paramount+, kicking off spooky season! But parents, this is not one for the kids! Need more details about the rating and why? FlickSided has you covered.
Fans of horror welcome thrillers during any time of the year, but there’s nothing quite like the Halloween season. This is when we pull out our list of movies that we enjoy watching each year when the fall weather arrives. At the top of many Halloween movie watch lists, you may find the iconic film,Rosemary’s Baby.
The psychological horror from Roman Polanski premiered nearly six decades ago on June 12, 1968. Based on Ira Levin’s novel of the same name, the story follows Rosemary and Guy, newlyweds after they move into an apartment building with seemingly friendly neighbors. When Rosemary becomes pregnant, she grows paranoid and begins having visions, insisting that something is wrong with her unborn child. But she never could have guessed the sinister truth.
Other than a made-for-TV sequel in 1976, titledLook What Happened to Rosemary’s Baby,Paramount+’sApartment 7Ais the only other project based on the original story.Apartment 7Ais a prequel and takes place before the events we see inRosemary’s Baby.
Why is Apartment 7A rated R?
As a parent and fan of horror myself, I understand wanting to introduce your kids to some of the best in the genre. However,Apartment 7Ais not a movie I recommend for kids under 14 years old. The movie is rated R, which means it is suggested for teens over 17, but after watching the movie, I don’t think it’s a very hard or strict R-rating.
Apartment 7Ais rated R for some violent content and drug use. There are also some frightening images, but nothing over the top. The drug use is alcohol and pain killers, the latter due to an injury. As for the violence, it’s not featured too much and it is definitely not as graphic as the rating makes it seem like. But you know your kid best, folks! And, best of all, the movie is streaming so you can watch it first to be sure.
Apartment 7Astars Julia Garner, Dianne Wiest, Jim Sturgess, and Kevin McNally. The movie is now streaming on Paramount+.
