Logo descriptions and capture by V of Doom
Video Capture by LoparXL


(1981-1985)

Nickname: “Star Trail”

Logo: On a black space background with white stars zooming towards us, a gold colored “PARAGON VIDEO PRODUCTIONS” with an outlined star next to the “V” in “Video Productions” (where the letters are much smaller than the “V” and “Paragon”), zooms in, leaving a trail behind it.

Variant: A version with "PRESENTS" appearing has been seen.

FX: The logo and background zooming in.

Cheesy Factor: Simple animation, plus the space background looks fake, and its animation loops constantly. And what’s with the trail following behind the logo? Also, the word "Presents" on the 1st variation is cheaply inserted!

Music/Sounds: An overly-bombastic fanfare, which sounds like it could’ve been done in the 1930's!

Availability: Seen on American Nitro, along with other B-movies from the era.

Scare Factor: Medium; the music might scare some.
