Forbidden Planet Video (1980s-1990s)
Nicknames: "WTH is That?", "The Surreal Image", "Baby Got Back", "The Butt with a Face on It"

Logo: On a red background, we see a white box with a surreal black-and-white image; the best way to describe it is some kind of a mirrored face with an abstract look to it, with a line going down the middle and a splitting curve that goes upwards and downwards. Below the image, the words

FORBIDDEN PLANET

THE WORLD OF EXTREMES
(the top text being in a very tall font) are seen.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None, or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Extremely rare. According to AussieRoadshow, who is responsible for this logo's capture, this appeared on some low-budget shockumentary videos and may have only appeared in Australia.

Editor's Note: This logo is known for the bizarre image that accompanies it.
