terrifying images or themes. For those reasons, children are not allowed to watch movies of the horror genre. The movie Legion is one such movie. Due to the overwhelming depictions of violence, challenging and disturbing psychological themes, and crass, profane language, I firmly believe that the movie Legion is inappropriate for children and young teens.
