Boje Buck Filmproduktion is a German production company founded by Claus Boje and Deltev Buck in 1991.
Logo[]
(November 14, 1991-): On a country landscape background is a close-up of a blue-white rabbit with a snake in its mouth and a predatory look in its eyes. The screen then slowly zooms away, revealing the rest of the rabbit and snake and a brown rabbit behind. Then on the left, "BOJE BUCK" and "präsentiert" with a black shadow under the text fades in. The upper text is black and in the Stencil font, with a red separation line and appears creased.
Variants[]
- Starting around 2009, the logo was modified. After the screen has finished zooming out, the text splashes in and is slightly rotated. Also, the "präsentiert" below is removed. In addition, the logo's colors look contrasted and is zoomed out a bit further.
- On Knallhart, the background is black, there was only the one rabbit with the snake, and they are in black and white and more darker, and the white name was in a different font (like from a crayon from a blackboard) and just slided in from the left, and has a crayon white separator, and the text präsentiert doesn't appear.
- On the trailer and the film of Same Same but Different, the rabbit and the snake appear inside some high grass in a landscape with palm trees in the background. Only the upper half of the bodies of both animals are visible due to the height of the grass. In addition, the text has a blue separator and just splashes in. And the logo begins with the transition of a circle zooming-in on a black background.
Music/Sounds[]
None (which adds to the creepiness) or the opening theme of the movie.
Scare Factor[]
- Original variant: High to nightmare. you might feel as if the rabbit is staring into your soul or ready to kill you, especially at the beginning with the close-up of its face. The silence and the disturbing corpse of the snake don't help at all.
- Knallhart variant: Nightmare, thanks to removal of the colors and darkness.
- Same Same but Different variant: Low to high. The rabbit is still evil, but the tamer background than the previous one, and the nice sounds of the crickets (the opening theme of the film) make this variant much tamer than the other variants.
Trivia[]
- The picture of the rabbit is actually a painting by German cartoonist and author Ernst Kahl, called Balsam und Gift. It originally had the rabbit with a tired expression, but he then released books titled the same name with the rabbit having the current predatory expression in the covers.
- As scary as this logo is, it is unrealistic. Rabbits are herbivores. Snakes also eat rabbits in real life and not the other way around, regardless of what you might see in this logo.
