Columbia Pictures Italia

(1987-July 1988)
Nicknames: "80s Torch Lady", "Torch Lady"

Logo: It's the same as the 1981 Columbia Pictures logo, but with a few differences.
 * The logo is shown in a red shade (this may be caused by film deterioration).
 * After the sunburst, "Columbia Pictures" appears on either side of the Torch Lady with "Italia" at the bottom.
 * There is a second sunburst before fading out.

Variant: Another version is seen. There is no red shade and after the fade from the first sunburst, the logo freezes just as the second sunburst is about to appear before fading out.

FX/SFX: Same as the 1981 Columbia Pictures logo, plus the second sunburst.

Cheesy Factor: This is a sorry attempt at making a logo. After the first sunburst, it just fades to the start of the logo. The "Columbia Pictures Italia" name is just cheap chyron. Not very professional.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Extremely rare. It's seen on Il Piccolo Diabolo. The variant appears on To e mia sorella.

Scare Factor: Low. The red tone may unnerve a few, plus the second sunburst may catch first-time viewers off-guard. Minimal for the variant.
