Should I let my 15 year old son watch Hostel 2?

Question

My son really wants to watch Hostel part 2, he likes horror movies. Should I allow him to? Why/why not?

Answer 1

Hostel movies are basically torture p**n. I've seen both , because i love Quentin Tarrintino, but come on- call it like ya see it. Would you want your 15 year old to see torture p**n?

Answer 2

No! Its an awful movie I wouldnt even reccomend an adult watch it. There are s*x scenes, nudity and awful torture scenes. It is not a proper horror movie it is just a gore p**n movie

Answer 3

Absolutely not!  The more violence and horror kids see the more problems they end up having either with fear entering their lives or thoughts they are not able to get out of their heads.  In my opinion...Satanic horror films bring evil spirits around and our youth don't need any more challenges than they already face in day to day life especially with evil thoughts and feelings entering their heads.

Answer 4

Your his parent, it is your job to determine whether he should see it or not.

Answer 5

trust me on this one, as a teenage boy, i know that he'll find a way to watch it.  If you do end up letting him watch, just make sure he knows the difference between fiction and reality.

Answer 6

i had a horrible nightmare after watching that.. but then again i am pregnant..

Answer 7

umm ya hes 15,he probably already seen it anyway

Answer 8

I would...simply because he's going to see it sometime anyways.  He'll see it at a friend's house or somewhere else if you don't let him.  Kudos to him for asking for permission.  Most 15 year olds wouldn't even ask if they thought their parents would say no.

Answer 9

My son who is also 15 recently watched Hostel2.  He was with friends.  My son is very popular, outgoing, quarterback on the school football team, a boys boys. loves horror movies an average kid. He told me is was the "grossest movie" his has ever seen. He said he wished he hadn't watched it.  He has told me that even now he sometimes thinks about some of the scenes and says that they are very disturbing.

My advice, if you have any influence on your son, say no!

Answer 10

at 15, I think it is okay. Although he fill find alot of these things funny and gross, this isnt going to affect how he is tomorrow. I think at 15 this isnt completely approprate, but it isnt anything to worry about.

Answer 11

If your son can take vrutal torture in that will never be seen in his nightmare, then sure. Just be prepared to change his sheets every morning and buy him a new nightlight.

Answer 12

Yeah, as long as he is prepared for the gore.  If your son has a pretty good idea about the world around him and you are open about life in general, then I think he'd be mature enough to watch.  You yourself might get a better idea of that.  I don't think all kids are up to it, but it really depends on the maturity level and if he can handle it.  That's my opinion.

Answer 13

IT'S RATED "R" FOR A REASON.

Answer 14

let him watch it,its not that bad its pretty boring actually, hes probably seen much worse if hes a horror freak.
