Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Despite its grisly reputation, there are a string of horror movies acceptable for a PG-13 audience. PG-13 horror movies counter the trend of acquiring an R rating for perceived clout in this genre, providing scary and thrilling scenes that work for younger audiences. While not every PG-13 horror film works, the ones that find this balance are often great picks for a Halloween movie night.
14 The Gate The Gate is a charming supernatural horror movie that has garnered a cult following since its release in 1987. Despite a plot about a demonic home invasion, The Gate is primarily aimed at a younger audience. It features some delightful special effects and relies mostly on tone and spectacle to create a sense of horror, making it a perfect PG-13 horror movie.
11 Fire in the Sky 1995's Fire in the Sky is famed for its terrifying, 10-minute alien abduction scene. While chilling, it refrains from explicit gore and instead focuses on tone and science-fiction themes to deliver a haunting movie. The abduction scenes earned Fire in the Sky its PG-13 rating, but the fact it is based on a true story gives the movie an even more sinister inflection.
8 1408 1408 is a chilling ghost movie based on a Stephen King short story of the same name. It stars John Cusack as a paranormal investigator who becomes trapped in a haunted hotel room in New York City. 1408 fully exploits its ghostly theme to create a truly haunting movie, all while maintaining a PG-13 rating. 1408's ending is confusing, but the film is an ideal Halloween watch.
5 The Others The Others predicates its horror on an impending sense of dread and paranoia, matched beautifully by the impressive gothic setting. Nicole Kidman stars as a mother whose children have extreme photosensitivity, and are seemingly haunted by their house's former residents. The use of candlelight dictated by the plot leads to several shadowy scenes and an encroaching sense of anxiety that builds throughout.
