For some movies like suspense and horror film, there would usually be an advice with regards to the allowable age as to who can watch them. Apparently, no sane parent would want his or her child watching these things, no matter how fictitious they may be or reincarnated the scenes are. But the real deal here is that it may continue to haunt them when they sleep.

We have always believed that our subconscious selves stem from what we experience or see. For kids, it is the same thing. Some may become terrified and develop trauma, especially if they sleep alone. In the course of their growth and development, it can become a bearing and is a burden that they would bring up to their elderly ages.

So as much as possible, avoid the gruesome movies for now for your kids. There is the right time to show it to them and apparently you, as a parent, would know when that right time would be.
