Anchor Bay (2009)<iframe align="bottom" frameborder="0" height="183" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/831dbdb2cb48cf4e3cb3a8a6e238c516ef929362" width="325"></iframe>

Logo: In a stormy part of the sea, we move along a waving sail from various sides, then release and zoom out to see a boat sailing on a calm sea surface, all in blue. The sun is on horizontally. The picture turns into the Anchor Bay logo which resembles an "A" in white and dark blue and 3D-folded, and a lens flare runs over its side. Below, there are the words:

A N C H O R B A Y
F I L M S

with the Starz byline underneath.

Variant: Some films feature a more bluish "A" and the company name tinted yellow.

FX/SFX: The sail and the light blink. Almost the same as the 2009-2016 Anchor Bay Entertainment logo, only with the "A" having a more 3D effect.

Music/Sounds: Sail weaving sounds, sometimes with a voice-over. None for the still version.

Availability: Common. Seen on Beyond a Reasonable Doubt and other films produced by the company.

Editor's Note: None.
