Background

TriStar Pictures Productions was an independent production company founded by Lang Elliott in 1978 and was based in Atlanta, Georgia.

(November 1979-April 17, 1980)

Nicknames: "The Non-Pegasus TriStar", "The Non-Sony TriStar", "Where the Pegasus?", "Shooting Stars TriStar"

Logo: On a black background is the text:

A TriStar Pictures Production

which appears in a white Serpentine font. Coming out of the "i" in "Tri" are three shooting stars going, up, left and right.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Just the opening theme to the movie.

Availability: Very rare. This TriStar only produced two movies: The Prize Fighter and The Private Eyes starring Tim Conway and Don Knotts. Both of which were distributed by New World Pictures.

Editor's Note: A very odd coincidence that this company shares a name with one of the most well-known film studios.
