As our film genre is a Psychological Thriller, this is immediately not suitable for children. Children may find our film topic disturbing and puzzling. Looking at the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) our film would classify as a 12. There is no harsh language, sex or nudity or drugs. Although the word ‘shit’ is used, this is however acceptable as it is only stated once. There is no discriminatory language, there is no horror in our film, there is no form of self harm or suicide and no easy accessible weapons are seen.
There is only a small feature of violence as Megan’s boyfriend is seen locked in the car with duct tape around his mouth, this is only for a brief moment and is not repeated a lot in the film.
The theme of our film is too mature for a PG or a U but is not too grown-up for a 12.
As our film is not a very distressing film, the certificate of a 12/12A seems appropriate as a child can be accompanied by an adult and have adult supervision.
