Age certificate


18 category symbolI did some research Into age restrictions for films. As our film is a horror film we already knew it would be in ether the 15 or 18 age certificate, due to it being a horror film. I researched into what the difference between two certificates. The  British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is a non-governmental organisation which gives recommendations for age restrictions, which the different county's reinforce through the law. I have come to the conclusion that our film is aged 18 appropriate as it has supernatural horror.

Where researching into the 18 certificate it stated that any of the following would result in the film receiving an aged 18 certificate: hard drug use, supernatural horror, explicit sex, sadistic violence and sexual violence. Thereforeas our film contains supernatural horror, our film would be an 18 certificate.
