Background: Full Moon Entertainment was a movie production company founded by Charles Band.

1st Logo
(1989-1993)
Nickname: "Dark Moon"

Logo: On a black BG, the moon rises from the bottom until it gets to the center. Clouds fade in on it, and the moon fades to a flat, blue, 2D circle. "FULL MOON ENTERTAINMENT", in yellow, fades in below.

FX: The moon rising, the fading in of the clouds and name.

Cheesy Factor: The moon's animation is rough.

Music/Sounds: A choir, which is accompanied by a trumpet, then a "whoosh" with wind chimes heralding the company name.

Availability: Appears on Puppet Master III, and possibly others including Shadowzone, Trancers III, Crash and Burn, Puppet Master and Puppet Master II

Scare Factor: Medium to high, due to the darkness and ominous music.


2nd Logo
(1993-2002)
Nickname: "Dark Moon II"

Logo: We see a night sky with hills below. The moon (now a different version from last time) rises from behind the hills. The clouds from last time drift to cover the moon. The screen fades to a black background with the Full Moon logo, already formed and surrounded by a red or white box ("ENTERTAINMENT" (1993-1995), "PICTURES" (1995-2002), or "RELEASING" (1990s-2002) is in its own section of the box).

Variant: There is a variant in which "RELEASING" replaces "PICTURES" or "ENTERTAINMENT", and the logo is still. The very last half of the music from the 1st logo (the wind chime sounds) play here.

FX: The moon rising, the other animation.

Cheesy Factor: None really; the moon's animation has improved here.

Music/Sounds: Same as last time.

Availability: Can be seen on Oblivion, among other movies. After Full Moon split from Paramount, some films, such as Curse of the Puppet Master, The Dead Hate the Living, Subspecies 4: Bloodstorm, and others used the "Pictures" byline.

Scare Factor: Medium; the logo is much improved over last time.
