Greedy studio assholes wanted all slasher/horror movies to be PG so they could release them into cinemas and have teenagers attend, but rather than crafting decent PG horror, they took R-Rated movies, cut as much of the violence and nudity as they could. Which made all the films shit, and everyone would complain about the lack of blood, so the studio assholes would then put out an "unrated" cut to try and double dip on people who wasted their money going to the cinema. But this ended up backfiring because it just led to every horror movie getting shitty reviews, and the people that figured out what the studios were doing would just wait for the DVD instead. So every slasher became a box office bomb. The late 00s were filled with racks of "unrated edition" slasher films.
