Think about this; "Thunderball" and "Goldfinger" where Bond assaults women with impunity were considered fine for kids to watch, and even generated children's toys.

Heck, there was a toy Xenomorph for 1979's Alien too! And that was even weirder because Alien was R rated and theoretically no children should have been allowed to watch it.
We had that toy as kids. We never saw the movie (still haven't to this day), we just thought it was cool.
