Background

This is the production company of Samuel Hadida. It is best known for producing the Resident Evil series of films.

1st Logo (September 14, 1995?-July 24, 2002)

Visuals: A white outline of a rhombus is drawn by a light dot. The word "DᐱᐯIS" flies into the logo. "F I L M S" flashes in below. A blue whirlwind is seen behind the logo. The end result looks like this:

DᐱᐯIS
F I L M S

Technique: CGI.

Audio: None.

Availability: Most films produced by Davis at the time had no logo. It appears at the end of Sueurs, the start of American prints of Beyond Hypothermia and possibly appeared on the original release of Crying Freeman, but newer DVDs remove it.

2nd Logo (March 12, 2002-)

Visuals: Against a brown-green-blue gradient sky, the same logo from before flies in, while "DᐱᐯIS" flies in, letter by letter. A red box with "F I L M S" in it fades in.

Variants:

There is a metallic version zooming in through a ton of clouds that snow.
There is a short version where some parts of the logo are cut.
A closing print version appears on Resident Evil films starting with Resident Evil: Extinction.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: None or the opening theme.

Availability: The regular version is seen on Resident Evil (though American prints don't use it), Resident Evil: Extinction and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. The shortened version appeared on Domino. The metallic version has appeared on Silent Hill, Resident Evil: The Final Chapter and Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City.
