The BBFC have stated that a film is rated 18 only when there is material in it that breaks the criminal law, or has been created through the commission of a criminal offence. These types of criminal offences can be the likes of:
- Where there is material or treatment that put people in harm or, through their behaviour, to society. For example, the detailed portrayal of violent or dangerous acts, or of illegal drug use, which may cause harm to public health or morals. This may include portrayals of sadistic or sexual violence which make this violence look appealing; reinforce the suggestion that victims enjoy sexual violence; or which invite viewer complicity in sexual violence or other harmful violent activities
- Where there are more explicit images of sexual activity in the the material or the purpose of the material is to connote sexual arousal In the case of video works.
The reason for why our film has been given an 18 rating from the BBFC is because of the amount of criminal offences, including murder, kidnapping, etc. There is also sexual activity which isn't shown in the trailer but is included in the film.
