[KEYSERSOZE1965]

@DrRoseKismet sounds like somebody needs a hug.

[RacerXGTO]

Ahh the mammeries, Skinamax in the 80's after 10pm with all those Shannon Tweed movies

[eddiegfan22]

I love livin out west, Cinemax becomes Skinemax at 7:00 PM

[HarvestmanMan]

@hamursh I was going to say Digital Effects , but you could be correct.

[elementz1986]

The 80s were all about weird geometric shapes.

[eriggs1228]

Remember when one week of the year both HBO and CINEMAX gave us a free preview for the whole week and they would have spokepersons insist that we buy HBO and contact our local cable provider and have our credit cards ready?

[cameron20101000]

the new cinemax sucks this one is better i know they change the music of this logo in 1992 or 1990?

[cameron20101000]

this music of 1988 cinemax feature presentation was used from 1988-1992 the second music was used from 1992-1995 was it on vhs or betamax?

[JHollowayNetwork]

@Jac2Mac Sounds Funky.

[hamursh]

I think Pacific Data Images did the animation for this.

[ndndrunk]

used to watch the nasty movies and keep my finger on the channel button on remote in case my parent walked in lol

[JHollowayNetwork]

1988, I think they changed the music Around 1989, or so.

[Jac2Mac]

@JHollowayNetwork What did the changed 1989 music sound like?

[cameron20101000]

@JHollowayNetwork actually they cinemax changed this music around either 1990 or 1992.

[77guitarist77]

CINEMAX GALAXY!

[mrpapafunky7879]

[CapPicard]

Ah, skin-emax! :)

[kargaroc386]

nowadays i could make this animation on my PC

[MrMorningside125]

The only reason why I watched cinemax because of the soft porn late at night ;)

[Benedingo]

Hi from MX...

What a moments came to me when I see this intro... especcially Friday´s night :)

[MGR1900]

@MrMorningside125 Some of those movies were actually very well made. It seemed like it was a very unique genre of film. Most of those movies as I recall were from Europe. I miss those days big time.

[JDOGFTW]

@MGR1900 Do you remeber a movie from like 1996 it was about a girl in south america or something they showed it during the spring or summer of 1996 I wish I could remeber the name.

[MGR1900]

@JDOGFTW I didn't have Cinemax during that time. Do you have any other information about the movie? You might want to do a search at the IMDB.com.

[AlienX99999]

@MrMorningside125 You Satanist!!!

[MeanGreenQueen2007]

@MrMorningside125 Skinamax LOL

[TheActionheat]

@MrMorningside125 glad im not the only one....lmao

[DarkWolf77]

@MrMorningside125 ah yes right around 10 pm is when Cinemax turned into Skinemax

[stage51manager]

@MrMorningside125 I agree 100%

[Feerulace]

@MrMorningside125: It was called "Friday after dark".

[VickyAnkles]

Those letters are so 80's it hurts.

[HurricaneDylan]

0:09 the C looks like pac man

[RedStormProduction]

This intro looks so similar to the CBS Movie intro from the same era.

[DJCandyManMike]

I don't remember this logo. Then again, we didn't get Cinemax for long after it become a channel you had to pay extra for. It's a neat logo, though.

[CamiloSanchez1979]

neat..it sucks!

[abrahamWCE]

I liked this logo for Cinemax, because I feel scary the present one (with the "max" part in big letters in a circle)

[chuckface06]

man, this takes me back . i remember when u had to pay for Disney

[Lawless66007]

Yeah I remember this one. They played this when there was a Sespense or a love movie was coming on. They played the upbeat one when a horror movie or a comedy was coming on. Memories.

[mw717]

This and HBO's intro are the greatest from the 80's!

[IRONBLOODxMECHANIQUE]

WOOH look at that awsome CG!

[Remisser77]

For me this brings me back to when I was little living in Central America. We didn't get cable and during Christmas, while visiting Guatemala, we stayed at a hotel and thats when we got Cinemax, Disney, and HBO.

[russelli1]

these graphics are as 80's as you get.cool i remember this shit.thanx.if it wasn't for youtube,we could'nt see all this.

[javoman13]

[Jabarten]

Ah yes, the intro just before the beginning of the 70's or 80's Emmanuelle flick late night....oh well....

[Jabarten]

Ah yes, the intro just before the beginning of the 70's or 80's Emmanuelle flick late night....oh well....

[sofapapa]

I only remember this music being used only in the late night movies.

[nowheyjose2]

Oh man, so typical of 80s graphics style.

[LoparXL]

Yeah, I love those New Wave graphics.

[Kargaroc286]

just HOW did they make the graphics? computers were SLOOOOOOW back in the 80s.

[LoparXL]

I don't know, but they were mostly likely NOT the IBM PCs, Commodores and Apples that were available to the average end user.

[SpongLena]

I agree. Even on today's computers, it still takes a lot of work to make it look this good.

[thedamntruth]

Oh yeah, I remember this! lol...
