R-rated movies on the whole don't sell as well as PG-13 movies, especially in terms of horror.

Creature features also historically don't do terribly well.

R-rated movies that get hyped for being ridiculous and/or ridiculously bad don't do well at the box office, regardless of what millions of bloggers tell you.
