Jamie Lee Curtis Doesn't Sugarcoat What She Thinks About Parents Who Show Their Kids HALLOWEEN
Have you ever been to a horror movie, or just any R rated film, and seen a kid there with their parents and wondered what the hell they are thinking bringing their kid to a movie so inappropriate? If so, you’re in the same company as Halloween franchise star Jamie Lee Curtis. In a recent interview with CinemaBlend’s ReelBlend podcast, the actress laid out her thoughts on the matter:
I’m not demeaning children or saying they can’t handle (violence), but it’s the truth… When I go out to talk about Halloween, even when I was doing book tours for books for children, I would have people come… They will stand there with their five-year-old kid, and say to me, ‘My Bobby loves Halloween, Don’t you Bobby?’… and I look at them and I have the meanest, meanest JLC are-you-out-of-your-fucking-mind look of you are the worst human being on the planet that you would show your child Halloween. I have kind of a strong opinion, as you can tell, about when is correct and incorrect to expose a child to that stuff.
Right on, JLC. I totally agree. Kids don’t need to be exposed to horror and R rated material. Get a babysitter or wait for Redbox. What do you think? Did you see any movies as a kid that scarred you for life?
