Helios Film Distribution

(1980s)


Logo: On a black background, a sun starts to shine as a filmstrip, curved at both ends, draws in. A duplicate filmstrip emerges from it and flips to the other side as the left filmstrip curves around and passes through the middle, forming a "H". "Helios Film Distribution" then wipes in below and the logo becomes pure white except for the middle of the "H" and a white circle appears in the top right corner, forming an conjoined "HF". The dot then turns grey and engulfs the screen, making the logo embossed on the new grey background and a drop shadow and a red underline draw under the text. The text disappears and some Polish warning text appears above, also with a red underline.

Technique: The sun, the logo drawing and filling, and the transition.

Music/Sounds: An chime tune with a harp playing throughout it.

Availability: Very rare. It's not as hard as some other ones at the time to find in Poland, and it can be seen on Polish VHS copies of Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, among others.
