Flatliners trailer deemed too ‘violent’ for broad audiences by ad watchdog
The trailer for the thriller film Flatliners remake has been deemed too ‘violent’ for a broad audience, the Ad Standards board has ruled.
Aired during on-demand episodes of Seven’s family program Little Big Shots, the trailer sparked a complaint to the Ad Standards Board because it contained “graphically portrayed violent scenes including someone being suffocated with a plastic bag”.
