Regal International[]
1st Logo
(1987-1988)[]
Logo: On a purple (Or, on Pilipinas Kong Mahal, a blue) background, we see the words:
"REGAL INTERNATIONAL
PRESENTS"
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Extremely rare. Appears on their very early VHS tapes, including Anak Ng Cabron.
2nd Logo
(1988-1992)[]
Logo: On a background with a large and moving blue star, the same "R" from the Regal Films logo, but thinner font weight, falls to the center of the screen. The blue words Regal International, Inc.(in a similar font, and in capri) fade in. The word "Presents" (in a modern-styled font, and also in Capri) crawls down from below the "Regal International, Inc."
Variant: On I Have 3 Eggs and Pretty Boy Hoodlum, a shorter, green-tinted version appears.
FX/SFX: The moving star in the background, the "R" falling in the center, the "Regal International, Inc." fading in, and "Presents" crawling.
Music/Sounds: Same as the 2nd Regal Films logo.
Music/Sounds Variant: On Ikasa Mo, Ipuputok Ko, the logo is silent.
Availability: Same as before; once again, can be found on some Filipino films made by Regal Films, Solar Films and Seiko Films releases. Sometimes appears before the first logo. This strangely plasters the Seiko logo on the 1991 VHS of Kristobal: Tinik sa korona right after the Live Home Video FBI Warning.
Editor's Note: While not as cheesy as the Regal Films "R from Hell" logo, some of the effects are rather dated, specifically the moving blue star (which looks like an amateurish Scanimate effect) and "Presents" crawling down (which looks a bit choppy).
