Background: This was the Canadian division of Worldvision Home Video, releasing a lot of low-budget movies in the '80s.

(1980s)
Media West "Weird MW" (1980s)

Nickname: "Weird MW", "Ugly M-W"

Logo: Against a black background, we see a small shape zoom into the screen at an angle from the bottom right corner. It finishes zooming in at the center of the screen, at which point we can clearly see it is a
stylized 3D "MW" shape (with the M in blue and the W in white; the letters are conjoined). Once it stops, it rotates until the MW becomes a two-dimensional design. The words "Media West, Inc." appear in white at the bottom.

FX/SFX: The MW zooming in, the title appearing. Not bad CGI.

Cheesy Factor: The "Media West Inc." appears at the bottom in a cheap way that contrasts starkly from the 3D design of the MW. The sound quality sucks, too. And the M-W is really ugly.

Music/Sounds: The same piece of stock music from the second Worldvision Home Video logo, minus the whoosh at the beginning. Also, it is higher in tone.

Availability: Extremely rare as many of their releases are out of print. Check Canada or eBay.ca for this logo.

Scare Factor: Medium; the zooming, the music, and the overall M-W design may turn people off.
