Is anybody interested in putting the R back in theater?
The only R-rated movie at AMC’s Fenway 13 last weekend was Land of the Dead, George A. Romero’s latest and second to worst zombie flick. That’s pretty miserable. I understand that G, PG, and PG-13 movies are more profitable, but surely it’s still possible to rake in good money with good R-movies: A little nekkid females, a little violence, a little foul language, and a story that’s a little bit interesting. A little like Basic Instinct, basically. I’m not asking for artsy stuff (I’m definitely not asking for artsy stuff), I just want movies with appeal other than animated talking animals or ever louder explosions.
