This trailer is about 10x scarier than the movie (although it's still pretty good). The fact that it's rated PG should tell you something about the shock factor.
I'd be watching Monty python re-runs at 12am at age 10(creepy in itself) then the trailer for this, beyond the door or magic would come n and I would be messed up for the rest of the night.
OMG!!! Thank you for posting. This was a trailer that made you WANT to go and see the movie. You know it was scary, you know your parents wouldn't let you, you know you were like 7 years old, but it was so ominous! PG-13? I thought it was R but I still wasn't allowed to see it! It has the best advertising tag line ever: "There is only one thing wrong with the Davis baby: It's Alive". Boy, the good old B-movie days!!!
I used to hide behind the couch whenever this commercial came on. But I remember seeing the claw much clearer and it dropping. Maybe my mind exaggerated it.

Along with the teaser trailer for Magic, this was one of the most effective, pee-your-pants chilling trailers from the past.

This trailer use to play all the time back when I was 10 years old. It did not frighten me, but it did shock me.
