'''Availability:''' The company mainly distributed obscure B-movies on TV, but the logo is usually kept intact. Appears on ''The Crawling Hand'', ''The Slime People'', ''Attack of the Animal People'', and ''The Wild Wild World of Batwoman''. These films were featured on ''Mystery Science Theater 3000,'' and the logo is fortunately kept intact on all three. It also appears on the old VHS version of the softcore feature ''The Bellboy and the Playgirls'', the directorial debut of Francis Ford Coppola, as well as at the start of each episode of the Drew Cummings documentary series ''The Making of'' (one videocassette where this is preserved is the UAV release of the episode ''RoboCop''). |
