The rating for our film is a 15. The reason for this is that although it doesn't contain a lot of violence, or strong language, the scenes are quite graphic and the story line is based on the young girl coming back to life. To a younger audience, this sort of thing would truthfully scare them, and although that is the main focus in a horror film, it is not age appropriate as the wrong idea could be given; by this I mean that they could believe that this happens in real life when typically it doesn't. Most horrors are rated 15 and fewer are rated 18. We don't feel like our film contains enough conventions that an 18 should and also we didn't plan for this as you would not captivate a larger audience if it was rated 18. For our film to be a 15, we think that we would have a large audience as a lot of people, stereo-typically, would be more interested at a younger age; for example, a teenager.
