Not to be confused with Carrey Video (Greece), although that logo stole from this logo's logomark and name (the latter being partial).

Background: TBA

(December 1984-December 1985?)

Logo: On a black background, a white segmented "C" zooms out and stops in the center, almost taking up the whole screen. A blue one then zooms out and the rest of the logo plays out like the Carrey Video logo. After it forms, the blue text "CAREY HOME VIDEO" fades in, outlined in white. A byline saying "A DIVISION OF CAREY COMMUNICATIONS LTD." also appears below in the same style, but smaller.

FX/SFX: The cheap 2D animation is an obvious symbol of the 1980s, with the design of the logomark and the way it is being formed as well.

Music/Sounds: A long synth whoosh, then a shorter whoosh. This is followed by multiple "zaps" when the lines form the logo.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on pre-cert tapes from the UK which old pre-cert tapes have been known for being very obscure and very hard to find, especially when living in the United Kingdom. It did turn up on a VHS release for Murder: Ultimate Grounds for Divorce, released through Karl-Lorimar Home Video.

Editor's Note: None.
