Ramsay Films (India)

Background
Ramsay Films was an Indian film company founded by brothers Shyam and Tulsi Ramsay, specializing in horror movies. Shyam Ramsay is credited with pioneering the horror film industry in India with this company.

1st Logo (December 30, 1972)
Logo: On a red background, there's a sculpture of Pluto and Prosperpina. Above it, there is a curved text (in the form of an arch): "RAMSAY FILMS". The camera zooms out and the sculpture is fully revealed along with the rest of the background, which is a sunset.

Trivia: The statue used in the logo is "The Rape of Proserpina", by Bernini.

FX/SFX: The zoom out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen only on Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche.

Editor's Note: The statue may be off-putting, but it's mostly a beautiful logo with the sunset.

2nd Logo (August 1, 1975-January 21, 1978)
Logo: On a sunset background, the statue from the previous logo appears from the right and moves to the left side of the screen. Right after the statue stops moving, "RAMSAY FILMS" appears with a moving blood-red color to it.

Variant: On Darwaza, the text instead says "RAMSAY BROTHERS'" and is plain yellow.

FX/SFX: The statue appearing and moving, the text appearing, the color moving in the text.

Music/Sounds: A howl of a wolf, with two bangs of a drum and a LOUD gong. After this, there are more drums pounding along with another LOUD gong, with another howl of a wolf. There is the sound of a horn playing throughout.

Music/Sounds Trivia: The music in this logo is heard at the beginning of Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche.

Availability: Seen on Andhera and Darwaza, all of these which are horror movies.

Editor's Note: This logo is known to be infamous among the logo community for the off-putting statue from the previous logo, dark atmosphere, sounds (especially the extremely loud panther roars) and the bloody text in the original version. However, the scariness of it is likely intentional, considering that it appeared on horror films.

3rd Logo (May 3, 1991)
Logo: On a space background with a galaxy on the leftwards side of the screen, including a starfield which shines rapidly, we see a cyan, white-striped square, with a red christian cross with the white crescent-and-star emblem and a white word on Urdu on it (if you see closely there is a transparent minus sign among the bottom of the cross), and the texts "RM" on green-yellow, the text "RAMSAY" on it's black shadow and in the bottom of it, the text "MOVIES", zooming right at us. It stops at the middle of the screen and then zooms out and goes out of the screen, leaving only the background, causing the logo to cut.

FX/SFX: The starfield shining and the striped square zooming in and out.

Music/Sounds: Some ascending and at the same time beeping sounds and an alert long-beep repeat, all in conjoint with a loud drumroll and a very loud synth whoosh (to the point of being titanic)

Availability: Seen only on Aakhri Cheekh.

Editor's Note: This logo is tamer than the 2nd logo, thanks to its calmer atmosphere and the absence of the statue from the previous logos, though the animation on the logo sliding is very rough.
