Unrated means the movie has not been rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). Most older unrated movies are just not rated by the MPAA because they are generally PG in content, however newer films are unrated because of excessive gore or violence which would have to be cut in order to obtain a rating.

It use to be if a movie was unrated, it was not submitted to the Motion Picture Association of America to be rated. That usually meant the makers were not willing to make the content cuts required to get a rating. But today there's an unrated version of many films. This is just a sales gimmick. The director adds in a scene that was not in the theatrical version and that makes it unrated. These scenes do not necessarily improve the film.

Movies sent to theaters are rated by the MPAA (Voluntarily), movies not sent to the MPAA are not "Unrated" they are "Not Rated", Movie creators will often censor their films so more people can see it but when films are released on DVD they can add scenes that they may have otherwise left out to get a better MPAA rating.

Generally, if a movie is 'Unrated' its technically 'Rated R'

On the DVD you can chose to watch the "Theatrical Version"

(which is Rated R) or the "Unrated Version" which is essentially

even worse.
