Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom is a special case in that it’s not hard to imagine a studio making it today. In fact, it’s not even hard to imagine that the movie would be as successful as it was in the ’80s.

However, what is hard to imagine is that a movie that features monkey-brain eating and a scene in which a character’s heart is graphically ripped out while he’s still alive would secure a PG-13 rating. Nowadays, this film would either undergo some edits or end up with an R rating.
