* AvoidTheDreadedGRating: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]. A very rare and confusing example; despite it being an obvious horror movie with two stabbing scenes, several deaths, and quite a lot of blood, Dracula Has Risen From The Grave was actually rated G by the Motion Picture Association of America, the same rating you'd see attached to any Disney film of the time. This error has not been corrected since with even the film's Blu-Ray release retaining the G rating.
** The film was released just as the MPAA went into place; it was the very first film to be rated. The ratings [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness were different then]], it may be that the ratings board saw it as a horror film the general audiences could enjoy.
