In Reply to: POLL: What was your first R-Rated movie? posted by tommybruce on January 15, 2004 at 21:47:04:
Well, that was the first one I went to that I had interest in seeing. I've written before how I got dragged to the outdoor theater as a kid by my folks, and we all sat through Porky's. But, I don't think I really paid attention to it. I do know the first R rated movie I went to on my own in a theater was Nightmare on Elm Street 5. Me and a bunch of friends went, and they wouldn't let us in cuz we were under 17. They said if one of our parents said it was all right, they'd let us in. One of our friend's dad was there - a doc from the Mayo Clinic - but he said, "Gee - I don't know. Its suppose to be kinda scary. Might not be too appropriate for you guys.
Luckily, my mom was still out in the parking lot - she came in and said Yeah - let them all in!!! WHOO HOO! I always thought #5 was one of the better ones in that series...
