Answer by Joe
NC-17

NC-17 is the highest rating a film can receive. You have to be 18 years old to see movies with that rating. In the United States, the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) is responsible for movie ratings. This is the official description of what NC-17 stands for:

“No One 17 or Under Admitted.

May contain very strong/sexual/offensive language, strong explicit nudity, very strong/gore/disturbing violence, or strong drug abuse.”

Hostel (2005) and Hostel II (2007) were rated R though, not NC-17.
