Zombie had received ‘NC-17’ ratings the first time he submit 31 to the MPAA because of “sadistic graphic violence, bizarre sexuality/nudity, pervasive disturbing images, and some strong language.” This time he made the necessary cuts to bring into a more ideal rating, ‘R,’ which will allow the film to be shown in more theaters than if it had decided movie forward with the ‘NC-17.’
On the bright side, it took Rob Zombie’s 2005 horror film The Devil’s Rejects eight tries before the MPAA agreed to reduce their original ‘NC-17’ rating down to an ‘R.’
31 will feature five carnival workers who must survive a deadly facility called “Murder World” while pursued by a gang of evil clowns.Zombie got the idea for the movie after attending a frightfest and seeing employees walk around dressed as chainsaw-wielding clowns.Zombie partially funded the filming of 31 via two crowdfunding campaigns.
Check out the poster below.
31 will be released in 2016.
