That's a pretty detailed content advisory.

@RhodesLives are you talking about 1:02? It is in the movie. It was before the elevator door opens and unleashes the ocean of blood

ABC FRIDAY NIGHT MOVIE was pretty rare, but i do remember JAWS 2, FOUL PLAY, and POLTERGEIST being shown.

HERE'S JOHNNY! (Camera pans out to reveal empty room.) D'OH! (Homer smashes through another door.) DAVID LETTERMAN! (Camera zooms out to reveal Abe.) Hi, David! I'm Grampa! D'OH!
I so remember watching this that Fri. night. My parents were over at the neighbors house & I was home alone. I had gotten into trouble earlier in the week & I wasn't supposed to watch t.v. The Shining was the only decent thing on & of course the disclaimer drew me right in. I was 13 yrs. old at the time, & the movie scared the shit out of me. Thanks a lot Jack!

We didn't have cable until the mid eighties, so I used to anticipate watching these movies on major networks, especially ABC. What memories! Now these networks suck big time with all the reality junk and over-hyped cop shows. I do miss this era plenty!
