Parents Say

age 12+

Based on 85 parent reviews

Parents say the film is a classic horror-sci-fi that may be suitable for older children, particularly those around 10 and up, depending on their maturity level. Reviewers note that while it contains some intense and graphic scenes, particularly the chestburster moment, much of the violence is implied rather than shown explicitly, and the strong language and mild nudity can be addressed with parental guidance.

  • suitable for older kids
