1st Logo (1985-1986)

Logo: On a space background (with a couple of stars zooming in and others being stationary, either dimming or brightening), we see a peach (or sometimes yellow)colored circle, zooming in. Around it, there are stars, changing throughout. A white flash then makes aring of the same color around the circle, forming Saturn. Then, stars coming from both sides make the name "INTERGLOBAL" and then "VIDEO" appears under it.

FX/SFX: Really cheap effects, with the animation appearing to be chroma keyed over a black plate with Christmas lights.

Music/Sounds: A Moog synthesizer tune with seven rising loops, with each loop having four synth beeps, and after the seventh loop, synth space sounds are heard.

Availability: Ultra rare. Can be seen on the earliest prints of The Making of the Terminator. If you're lucky, eBay or Amazon may have other tapes with this logo. Other tapes that have this logo are The Private Affairs of Bel Ami, Rain, Sisters of Death, Carnival Story and Alfred Hitchcock's Secret Agent.

Editor's Note: The cheap effects and eerie music may put some viewers off, but this is mostly a harmless logo.

2nd Logo (1987-1988)

Logo: On a zooming space background, a 2-D image of a stylized Earth with a filmstrip around it (a la Universal) zooms in from the center of the screen really quickly while flipping really quickly. Once it settles, "INTERGLOBAL HOME VIDEO" in blue zooms in below the Earth.

Variant: On videos released by Kid Flicks, the red words KID FLICKS A DIVISION OF appear on the screen, then fade out as the Interglobal Home Video logo plays.

FX/SFX: The background, flipping and zooming.

Music/Sounds: Same music as the previous logo, but in a muffled form (possibly due to tape damage).

Availability: Can be seen on Prosecution and The Outer Space Connection. However, their tapes are really hard to find these days, but quite wider in distribution than the 1st. Also seen on tapes released by its kiddie division Kid Flicks.

Editor's Note: The "flipping" looks terrible, and the Kid Flicks text is also very cheaply inserted.
