Why is the horror movie Conjuring 1 on Netflix Ab 18?
On Amazon he is from 16 and Wikipedia is also the age rating 16. Only on Netflix he is from 18.
It is not uncut, I have already checked. The movie has the same length as the one from 16 …
Do you mean conjuring the visitation?
Yes
Unfortunately, I found nothing synonymous, maybe the film is the US from 18, netflix is indeed from the United States
That might be, thanks for your help.

"In the case of cinema, (linear) television and DVD / Blurays, the protection of minors in Germany is regulated in a very user-friendly way: there's the FSK, the voluntary self-control of the film industry, which checks films and TV series and provides them with the well-known age ratings: from 0 , from age 6, from age 12, from age 16, from age 18. The FSK's age-specific information, which is usually color coded, provides a good guide when selecting media consumption accompanied by a legal guardian not in a movie from 16.
This is not a state control, but - as the name implies - a voluntary self-control of the film industry. For television there's analogous to this a voluntary self-control television. According to their guidelines, broadcasts can be shown in the free-to-air TV from 6 to 8 pm, which are suitable for children up to 12 years old. From 8 pm to 10 pm there will be a clearance for programs over the age of 12, from 10 pm to 11 pm to 16 and from 11 pm to 6 pm from the age of 18.
While the Youth Protection Act takes effect in public space, broadcasters and online providers are subject to the Youth Media Protection Treaty. It stipulates that access restrictions must apply for content that is only free from the age of 16 or 18 years. In addition, the provider must appoint a youth protection officer. VoD providers such as Netflix and Amazon have committed themselves to any voluntary self-control, they check their content completely themselves. However, they have to publish the age already clearly visible in FSK-checked content. According to the FSK, however, Amazon voluntarily checked some of its own productions from the FSK and provided it with an age rating.
But if you look at a Netflix own production, usually every age is missing for orientation. So, if you think you're watching a series of the popular Netflix superhero series "Daredevil" together with your son, you may experience a surprise when the bones crack and the blood splatters. And the fact that the Netflix sitcom "Master of None" maintains a very adult sense of humor far below the waistline becomes clear after only a few minutes, but only after switching it on. "

As a streaming platform, Netflix also seems to be able to change age ratings or determine their own. At least that's how it seems to me.
