Misr International Films (Egypt)

(1982, 1997) Nicknames: "Rooster Of Doom", "Pathé's Scarier Egyptian Brother", "Egypt International Films" Logo: On a black background, we see an orange popular-like drawing of a rooster zooming right at us. Then when it stops, it flashes. After around a half of a second, two texted circled lines in orange which are the text in arabic, and it's traduction, "MISR INTERNATIONAL FILMS" zoom out in the borders of the rooster, and then flash.

Variant: On Destiny (1997), the rooster is in yellow and the texts are in light red.

FX/SFX: The zooming in and out, the flashing of every detail on this logo.

Cheesy Factor: Very primitive animation and strange flashing effects used (which are blurring and then modeling). The rooster also looks very tacky though, along with it's cheesy translation, which would say "EGYPT INTERNATIONAL FILMS" as opposed to "MISR INTERNATIONAL FILMS"

Music/Sounds: A gong that echoes repeatedly until the logo fades into black.

Availability: Seen on The Sandstorm/العاصفه كامل and Destiny.

Scare Factor: Medium to high. All of the schemery of the logo looks very strange, even if you aren't expecting it. The flashes can also scare many, and then run in fear. Also, the almost-red scheme of the logo may get it worse for some, but the short length of the logo may get people to get used to easier.
