* '''Dan Curtis Productions''': Mainly since this isn't a scary logo, it's just text superimposed over the film's ending. Sure, the entry was already removed from AVID, but the evil will never truly be stopped.
* '''Apple Films''': I never found this one scary, it's just some typical space stuff. I also find its animation charming, though I'm probably not the best person to ask here.
* '''Caballero Home Video (2nd logo)''': What adult is going to find this nightmare-inducing? Then again, I have an aversion to the kind of stuff this logo appeared before, so I'd personally find this the most pleasant thing.
* '''Emperor Multimedia Group (New Blood)''': Maybe the funniest failed attempt at a jump scare I've seen, and this is including fake anti-piracy screens.
* '''GT Interactive Software (Blood)''': The other funniest attempt at a jump scare in a logo. It is effectively creepy at first, but then the explosion turns it into comedy gold. That said, the Blood 2 version is not funny due to the explosion being gruesome there, but even then, I've seen at least two scary logo lists call the Blood version the scarier of the two.
* Any logo that uses the "stock lyra strum." The overuse stops it from being creepy in the slightest anymore.

V of Doom. Too boring to be scary nowadays.

And that includes the Viacom name since it's dead.

More and more people are answering so i guess imma show mine (Not including Screen Gems, Viacom, and others!):

  • O.E.C.A.: The animation is decent for the 70's and i love the trippy music!
  • Video Collection International: This is just one of my absolute favorite logos!
  • D.I.C: "A sleeping scene is always scary" ☝️🤓 (Real comment)
  • K.P.B.S.: Check O.E.C.A and V.C.I.
  • Royal Nepal Film Corporation: The poor quality ruins it!
