Hmm.... I can't even remember. It was probably something on HBO, unless you're asking about in the theater. I've never been into splatter-fests or dumb teenage comedies so it's possible my first "R" was quite late--I just never paid much attention to the ratings. I'm actually more into movies now than I was growing up.

Edit: It may have been The Blue Lagoon on HBO. Of course I had to check it out when my parents weren't noticing, but it was fine since, because it was HBO, any given movie was on 8 or 9 times a week. Needless to say I was watching it for one and only one reason, and I remember thinking that the movie was very tiresome and hardly worth the effort to see the advertised nudity. (And now I find out, when I went to check that it really was R rated at IMDB, that it wasn't even Brooke, but a body double.)
