Same as the VidAmerica warning screen at the time.

2nd Warning (1983-1991)

Warning: On a purple background, we see the FBI square (a big white "FBI" with the FBI logo in white). Next to it is a white square with black text. Between some of the text is a vermilion "WARNING!"

There is a tacked-on copyright date on Unicorn Video releases.
Sometimes the background is blue.

FX/SFX: None.

On New Line releases, can be seen on City Slickers and Eve of Destruction starring Gregory Hines. Also seen on Video Treasures, Strand Home Video, Fries Home Video and early MPI Home Video releases. Surprisingly, it made an appearance on the 1992 MGM/UA demo VHS of Time Bomb.
