Bryanston Pictures

(1970) Nickname: BP From Hell

Logo: The text "BP" zooms out until it's far away. What appears to be multi-coloured lines waver in the centre of the screen. A box with the same text as before then appears with a stretch-like effect. We then see rainbow copies of the logo. The text "Bryanston Pictures" then appears on screen. The logo suddenly dissolves to the yellow text "Presents" on a black background.

FX/SFX: Um...

Cheesy Factor: ...Why does logo grow slightly larger? It was probably an editing mistake. Also, the BP box is slightly unappealing to the eye.

Music/Sounds: A series of random, warbly synth-like sounds produced by a Moog synthesizer: starts with an ascending whoosh, then descending beeping sounds, a loud descending chirp, an array of fast-paced ominous music with a sound that resembles the descending voices of the THX Deep Note, then warbly sounds that end with a droning synth hum and continuous synth beats and chirps. On Lord Shangoand The Black Gestapo,drumming can be heard under the logo.

Availability: Near extinction, Seen on movies such as Dark Star and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Scare Factor: Minimal to Nightmare. Due to the creepy sound effects and odd subject matter. Other than that, it's a runner up for the worst logo ever made.
