1st Logo (2010)

Logo: On a red background, we see a white line, below the line is the text Highland Park Classics in white; this is a spoof of the Sony Pictures Classics logo.

FX/SFX: None

Music/Sounds: None

Availability: Can be seen on The S from Hell, a documentary about the infamous 1965 Screen Gems logo. The documentary can be viewed here.

Editor's Note: None.



2nd Logo (2010-)

Nickname: "The H From Hell"

Logo: We see two red trapezoids in a yellow background; one on the top, the other on the bottom. The top trapezoid is small, and the bottom trapezoid is big. Both trapezoids move to the middle-right part of the screen and wrap around each other, while the middle-left part of the top trapezoid becoming more slender. A red dot appears between the two trapezoids. The black, uppercase words "Highland Park Classics" appear in on the lower half of the screen and zoom in.

Trivia: This is an edited version of the 1965 Screen Gems logo.

FX/SFX: The trapezoids, the wordmark.

Music/Sounds: Eric Siday's jingle for Screen Gems.

Availability: Common. Seen on The S From Hell and Room 237.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (2012-)

Logo: On a black background, we see the red letters "HP", stylized similarly to the 1973 Warner Bros. Pictures, zooming in front of us. The words "HIGHLAND PARK CLASSICS" is seen below. When the letters fill the screen, the same letters are seen on the background, in white. It zooms, and stops right in front of the screen. A black box fade in the letters, and the words "A HIGHLAND PARK COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY" fades in below.

Trivia: This is an edited version of the 1973 Warner Bros. logo.

FX/SFX: The words zooming in, the fading in of the black box and text.

Music/Sounds: TBA

Availability: Seen at the beginning of Room 237.
