AVID note: "Not only is this logo perhaps the most infamous Russian logo, but it has earned the reputation as one of the scariest logos ever made by the logo community, even among adults. This is due to the transitional component featuring the rings and black circle, the sudden appearance of the unnerving-looking mask of Guo Xiang, and the dramatic 5-note fanfare that accompanies the mask's appearance (similar to a jump scare). In spite of (or perhaps because of) its infamous reputation, this logo has developed a cult following, especially in Russia, and has been the subject of various memes and even a screamer known as "VID of Doom". It is also a favorite to many, especially fans of "scary logos"."
CLG note: "The logo is possibly the most famous Russian logo of all time, and has been both been feared (and memed) in the logo community due to the extremely creepy mask, zooming circles, and the 5-note fanfare, and is declared as one of the scariest logos ever made. The April Fools variant's mocking face is also seen under this light, as well as its several other variants, but they're slightly tamer. However, it has developed a cult following, especially in Russia."
