In A World Full Of Movies… This one has not been made!

Not Yet Rated takes your favorite horror movie tropes and turns them upside down and inside out. Clueless teenagers stumble into trouble, bumbling monsters have more bark than bite, and grumbling spirits possess children's toys. No horror cliché is safe!

Don't be scared, though. It's more fun than fright, and it's perfect for horror fans and comedy lovers alike. Like many of the characters, each movie will never be seen again.

No script. No props. No escape.
