Logo: On a black background, a stacked "AV" appears in a retro futuristic font, made of glowing orange lines. A still ping is also seen on the bottom of the "V". About halfway into the logo, the text "MOVIE MAGIC FROM ASTRA" wipes in below.
Variant: Sometimes, the logo's symbol may be a little too different, and the text may be small.
Technique: The text wiping in below.
Music/Sounds: A UFO-like violin note, extended to play throughout the entire logo. None for the variant.
Availability: Very rare.
- Seen on a majority of their library, which includes Snuff, Blood Feast, I Spit On Your Grave, among others.
- It also appears at the start of the 1983 UK pre-cert VHS release of The Adventures of Choppy and the Princess as well.
