Lynch/Frost Productions

Background : Lynch/Frost Productions was a production company that was founded by cult filmmaker David Lynch and Mark Frost, creators and executive producers of Twin Peaks.

1st Logo (1990)

Logo : On a black background we see the text "LYNCH/FROST" in white above "PRODUCTIONS" also in white. FX/SFX : None.

Music/Sounds : Just some electric zapping.

Availability : Ultra rare. It's only seen on the original pilot of Twin Peaks, which is currently on DVD. The international version has the next logo.

Scare Factor : High, mostly because of the loud sound of electricity sizzling.

2nd Logo (1990-1992)

Nicknames : "The Rack Logo", "The Shocking Rack" Logo : There's an electric circuit somewhere in the logo as we see two racks (what we think they are) that are placed one above the other. The top has the words "LYNCH/FROST" and the bottom has the word "PRODUCTIONS" below. Meanwhile, electricity zaps, lights go on and off in different sides and corners, and two metallic circles appear randomly behind the racks.

FX/SFX : The electricity sizzling, the random lights switching on and off, and the circles appearing. This is all done in (purposely) crude stop-motion animation.

Music/Sounds : An extended version of the sizzling from the previous logo.

Availability : Rare. Seen on Twin Peaks.

Editor's Note : The mishmash of effects and the loud sound of electricity sizzling, coming especially after Angelo Badalamenti's serene music, but especially the sudden start of all this, will definitely startle and scare more than a few; it worsens for those prone to epilepsy (though this logo fits perfectly with the nature of Twin Peaks).
