Ra-Horakhty Films (India)

Background
Ra-Horakhty Films is a film company founded by Ra-Horakhty Ramsei (not related to the former CEO of Xilam Boss) in 1945, it didn't use a logo until 10 years later.

1st Logo (1955-1964, 2010)
Nicknames: "Ra of Doom" "Hellish Ra-Horakhty" "Naked Bird-Man of Doom" "Before Pingu Films, There Was This" "AAAAAAHHH!!!!" "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!" "Caution Video of India"

Logo: In a black background surrounded with fire, we see a naked man with a sun-surrounded falcon head with shackles and the left and right sides of his body and half of his arms being darker. The text "Ra Films" appears in Times New Roman, after five seconds a flurry of flashing images (derived from one of Hotdiggedydemon's Jerry cartoons) appear.

Trivia: The man is Ra, an Egyptian god of the sun.

Variant: In 1959, the text is replaced by the golden text "RA HORAKHTY फ़िल्में".

FX/SFX: The fire, the text fading in, and the flashing images.

Music/Sounds:


 * 1955-1961: A sitar tune before the flashing images appear, then a loud noise when the flashing images appear.
 * 1961-1964: An extremely loud horn sounder which was later to be used by the 1973 Balakrishna Movies logo.

Availability: Rare, since the logo got cut out in the current printings of their films.


 * The original B&W variant first appeared in the film Apanee Mehanat Karen (1955).
 * The remastered color variant only appears as a video in Vincent05's channel.

Editor's Note: This was known as one of the scariest logos in Bollywood history, due to the appearance of Ra and the flashing images. A concern was made by the Indian government to stop using this logo again.

2nd Logo (1968)
Logo: Only the text "आरए फिल्म्स" superimposed in the start of the movie.

FX/SFX: None, unless you would count what is moving.

Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the film.

Availability: Only seen in the film Edam aur Eev.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (1995-2002)
Logo: We see the 1977 Climb Films logo, but without the heart. The filmstrip starts to scroll down to the image of Ra as seen on ancient Egyptian art, the text "RA HORAKHTY FILMS" fade in after the filmstrip scrolls down.

FX/SFX: The filmstrip and the text.

Music/Sounds: Same as the Climb Films logo.

Availability: Seen on their films such as Chama (1995).

Editor's Note: It was a nice take on the Climb Films logo.

4th Logo (2002-)
Logo: In a black background, we see a blue lens flare. A black filmstrip appears when the background transitions to light blue, the filmstrip spins when it scrolls down. After a flash when the filmstrip disappears, the Ra-Horakhty Films print logo appears in a black background.

FX/SFX: Nice CGI.

Music/Sounds: Automatic by Utada Hikaru.

Availability: Common, seen on their films from 2002 to now.

Editor's Note: It's a much modernized version of the 3rd logo.
