In This Clip, From 0:00 To 0:04, It Was KOMO-TV's Puget Sound Video ID From August 1981.

A few years ago, I was reading an old newspaper from August 1981, and I remember it listing this movie as being on ABC that night. So this might be that

Also, I liked how KOMO TV 4 in Seattle would often do their station identification with a water or sunset view of Puget Sound or Lake Washington in the background.

I believe this is the Closed Captioning that ABC used in 1981, and The "Star Tunnel" logo ABC used for their movies debuted too.

i SAW that movie, it creeped the hell out of me

[dougeroo1]

Quite a good movie. I've got it on an old VHS tape somewhere. Think I'll dig it out and watch it tonight.

[Dimension150]

Yea!! KOMO TV in Seattle with THIS bumper. I'm home!!

[nutherefurlong]

I associated this ABC Friday Night Movie with scary stuff. They always had horror movies, it seemed :P Such cheery music, too.

I love seeing these old bumpers!

However, the dialogue that Shirley MacLaine speaks in the clip is atrocious....but that is the writer's fault. lol

what a rip off and it sucks

[vinylrecord68]

@c1c2c3able If you're thinking that it's a rip-off of "The Exorcist", this movie was theatrically released 2 years earlier.

This seems like a rather strong movie to show on TV at the time.

I'm actually quite surprised they didn't say, "although edited for television.......parental discretion is advised"!

[jthomas666]

YEAH, those are the best parts of nostalgia TV

[jthomas666]

Looks wicked as Hell

[obsgia]

This movie (in which I don't remember) is a classic example of an occult that involves demonic activity known as divinity (the practice of dealing with the dead). Believe it or not, it's real and if we are not careful, we can fall into this same trap. Be strong and carry the awesome power of the Lord with you.
