Top 5 Creepiest V of Doom Variants.
Welcome to my very first top 5 video! This is a series I have wanted to do for ages, but previous attempts at doing these sorts of videos have kinda flopped. Nonetheless, I've finally done a good one (I think)
The Viacom "V of Doom" logo was Viacom's 2nd logo and used from June 1976 - 1986. Many have dubbed it as one of the scariest logos of all time. In this video, I count down the Top 5 most creepy V of Doom Variants.
Remember - The order of variants in this video has ultimately come down to my opinion - it may not reflect yours! Please refrain from leaving rude comments about the order I have chosen to put these videos in.
Music:
Kevin MacLeod - Ominous Intro
The Bob Newhart Show theme (over the end credits)
Credits to everyone who contributed a capture to this video, more specific information of those involved are listed in the end credits.

Very good list Luke! I think the most creepiest V of Doom logo in my opinion was the Vinegar Syndrome variant of the V of Doom, but seeing that being placed at #3, I'm fine with that.

Me Too! The Most Creepiest V Of Doom Logo Is The Vinegar Syndrome Variant
Number four has a kind of found footage horror feel to it. Like you watch it, and your family finds you dead a short time later with the V burned over your heart or inside your eyelids.
the scariest part about #4 to me is the poor vhs condition combined with the film. it’s kinda freaky.
2:58 Sorry V, You came to close to the Screen and Broke it

You're wacky...😛
For me, it's the Rankin Bass logo that gets me. We watch those movies every christmas, and every time, I either run out of the room during the credits or take the remote and go back to the main menu. My family makes fun of me for it, but for some reason it just scares me... I figure it's rooted in my childhood or something, because other logos, like this one, as well as Screen Gems, don't much bother me. The tune just sticks in my mind and haunts my dreams... I literally had a dream once that it was just playing over and over and over and i couldnt breathe. It's weird and irrational but goddamn is it unsettling lmao

I find the feeling of the past is a particularly strong one, and logos that appear lifeless, corporate and without character appear haunting and scary to us in our childhoods. And as we get older I think those feelings don't really go away despite us realising they aren't as scary as we thought they were as a child. Thanks for sharing :)

This logo never bothered me that much when I saw it as a kid, but it seems a wonder it didn’t, as my mother told me I would always cry whenever the Calgon commercials came on when I was a baby. The loud noises apparently bothered me.

Ah good old budget tape transfers, eh? They can't blame poor treatment of the film negatives for this error, as I'd assume by that point in the 80s the programming you watched was provided by videotaped transfers? A little poor on Viacoms behalf to transfer such poor condition negatives
Kind of funny how these for the most part weree damaged from being at the end of most film reels. Mainly from constant rewinding which within time warps the cellophane and rubs unevenly through the pinch rollers, causing the pitch to fluctuate.
All versions were downright scary. One thing’s for sure, I wouldn’t want to see any of those late at night before bed.
I Already Took A Screenshot On 2:59 With The Glue Part
On #5 you said it being faster makes it worse, on #1 you said it being slower makes it worse, which is it???

So you are a kid
TBH this V of Doom logo never scared me and I never even knew there were so many variants. The only one I'm really familiar with is the videotaped variant from the 80s. I vaguely remember seeing that one after the Andy Griffith Show as a kid before I took off for school. Though it did stand out to me, it never once scared me. Plus, I love how you mentioned vinegar in the no. 3 pick. Might as well be called Vinegar of Doom. LMFAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The one seen on MeTV's current prints of My Three Sons (the season 11 finale). Because CBS Television Distribution cuts in before, the logo begins with a big thump from a drum, which was the end of the M3S theme song. Before the usual jingle comes in.

They should have kept the print as it was instead of fucking plastering CBS TV in the middle.. screw that logo..
I loved the V OF DOOM as a kid.. mainly because it reminded me of the LOONEY TUNES "train out of the painted tunnel" gag.. i could not stop laughing when the music came on.. These versions wouldn't scare me.. except for that WARPED AS HELL fanfare one from the ANDY GRIFFITH video.. what the fuck was that????
2:49 yes i saw dat easily bc i eat carrots
1:08 Gold Key 1980 jingle
❤That's nothing! When I was younger, the Viacom endings reminded me of my late Dad. It sounded rough; I'll give you that. The logo which creeped me out when I was younger was the metallic logo for General Electric on my TV screen. I thought that the metallic G.E. logo was going to beam me into some creepier dimension altogether! I'm over that; now that I'm at a point that the medical technologists summoned by my doctors use G.E. medical equipment to make me feel better....or hypnotized!😵💫
1:52 bruh the actual damage is the vhs so it’s the vhs
number 4 is unsettling (the most)
#4 looks 3d, like most damaged film 2d logos
You were not joking!
i was scared at footage number 3, the “vinegar syndrome” variant of v of doom
What is that fot?
THE V OF DOOM ONCE TRIED TO DESTROY A FRAME? Luckily, someone fixed it!
My stars Viacom V Of Doom is vicious and scary
This is one of the main reasons why the videotaped version is superior for me.
i can,t sleep everytime i think about vinegar syndrome variant of v of doom
#2 was the scariest out of them all

"Guys the v of doom isn’t that scary" #2:well guys,take a look at my logo!
Yeah. The music was creepy
That is my name two
None of them were scary. But, if I had to pick one it would be #2. I don't think it's scary, though.
what was the dadada dadada dadada from
hi
Noice
WHERE'S TELECINE ERROR ?
I think #1 is actually the least scary one because the V actually stops before it cuts to black and the sound is funny
nakakatawa yung mga sinasabi mo!
I hate the bad words like sh-i am not saying it

#3 looks like “V in hell”
All of them is not scary
