While lacking graphic gore, a horror film built on intense atmosphere and suspense, even without extreme visuals, can still be quite frightening and potentially more disturbing for younger audiences than some other films on this list.

Strong language, underage smoking, and juvenile delinquency, while perhaps not extreme, are consistent elements throughout the film and contribute to a more mature tone.

Stylized violence and intense action sequences, even without graphic gore, can be too much for a PG-13 audience in some cases. The intensity level plays a significant role.

Two uses of the F-word combined with PG-13 level violence and some implied sexual content (even if mild) pushes it a bit higher than films with just language issues.

A scene depicting a simulated orgasm in a public place, while comedic, is a distinctly adult theme and visual that often warrants an R rating.

Only two instances of the F-word seem like a relatively minor reason for an R rating, placing it lower on the scale.
