Prestige Video

Logo (1980s)

Visuals: On a space BG, a circle of 2 drama masks (a pink tragedy mask and a vermilion comedy mask) appears on the top right corner spinning its way to the center. After that, whilst spinning, it zooms into the screen very close slowly. It then stops spinning, and the drama masks tilts a bit. Then, behind the masks, a blue and yellow filmstrip wipes from top to bottom in a slightly-flipped "S" shape. The entire thing zooms out for a while until "Prestige Video" writes itself in a fancy script font. The company name glows.

Technique: Cel animation.

Audio: A rendition of Keith Mansfield's "Superstar", which is jarringly looped at the end.

Availability: It was seen on many Australian VHS prints of Black Angels, Black Fist, Combat Killers, Escape From Angola, Five Bloody Graves, The Godchildren, Hell Raiders, King Frat, Nurse Sherri, OffRoad, Sadie, Execution, The Black Gestapo, The Ghastly Ones, The Great Smokey Roadblock, The Man Who Would Not Die, The Strangeness, The Witch, and Voodoo.
