It's an 18 in the US. 15 in the UK (though it was an 18 until 2010).
I would be rather annoyed if my 11 y.o. kid came home saying someone's parent had shown them that film.

11-year-olds are young enough to get terrible nightmares from films like Aliens - if it was my child who wanted to watch something age-appropriate and got shouted down, I'd be pretty furious.
Which one? That lovely children's classic "The Wizard of Oz".
That witch was scary!!
Some of us weren't so lucky.
It only exists as a outtake (its on yahoo) as it was to upsetting.
I saw plenty of much more graphic stuff that didn't phase me for a moment.
It was The Care Bears Movie.
No nightmares.
If anything, I was the weird kid at school, because everyone else was watching Nightmare on Elm Street when they were 8 and 9, and mom wouldn't let me.
It's almost the same for all movies with just violence/blood in it. When I was 11, I used to watch a lot of them. I guess it's okay if the parent is there watching the film with them.
