I've literally seen this movie more than 20x over the years. I was shocked to see it was originally rated PG. At a minimum this should be a PG I believe the lack of R rating was in part due to very little foul language and lack of excessive?

Instead, they had to create music that would let you know the shark was nearby. Try taking a swim with a friend in the ocean and hum that tune. See what happens.

There are many violent and bloody graphics. There are many mild swearing and very little but still some swearing. Theres barely any sexual content except for when the main characters wife asks him: "Wanna get drunk? Fool around? Leading me to my next point! A lot of drinking and smoking. So despite it's pg rating be careful! Spielberg loved the off-the-cuff moment so much that he re-staged it and put it in the movie.

Zanuck demanded that real shark footage be used in the movie, and Spielberg used it sparingly. He hired experts Ron and Valerie Taylor to shoot underwater footage of foot sharks off the coast of Australia.

For scale, they hired a little person actor named Carl Rizzo to appear as Hooper in a mini shark cage in hopes that they could create the illusion of a shark attacking the character. After trying to get the right shot for about a week, the sharks would only swim around the cage. This footage was included in the final film. Kastel modeled the image of the massive shark emerging from the bottom of the frame after a great white shark diorama at the American Museum of Natural History.

The female swimmer at the top was actually a model that Kastel was sketching at his studio for an ad in Good Housekeeping. Determined to rid their sandy shores of this tourist-eating monster, the angry townspeople take to the ocean and return with a large shark.

While an utterance or two of the F-word would've led to an "R" rating, the movie carefully skirts the usage of that particular word, opting instead for two dozen or so other cuss words, primarily uttered by the kids, who are also seen smoking and gambling. How many parents back in '84 took their kids to see Gremlins assuming it was going to be some kind of live-action Care Bears type thing based on the poster of fuzzy and adorable Gizmo? Little did they know that Gizmo was the good Gremlin Very, very bad.

In addition to general kid-terrifying monster mayhem, a Gremlin gets chopped up in the kitchen, a Gremlin gets caught in a blender , and another one is killed in a microwave.
