Sometimes its true that R movies are scarier because they void to more explicit content. Nevertheless, this isn't true in some cases because PG-13 movies contain violence, intense thematic elements and so forth, like The Grudge, Boogeyman, and the ring, and they are still really scary. Gore does not always equal scariness.
