JANUARY 11 VHS HISTORY LEASON : REGAL VIDEO, INC.
Not much is known about this New York City-based label (Rumor has it that is was started by two furniture business owners), but they are notorious for many reasons, including the legality of their releases, the crappy transfer quality of the films and the garish artwork on their clamshell cases during their short run in the mid-80's. They are most famous for unleashing THE REVENGE OF DOCTOR X, a film that no one can really agree about except that it stars James Craig and bears the credits for THE MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND. Some sources state that it is actually a 1970 film titled THE DOUBLE GARDEN (a.k.a. THE VENUS FLYTRAP) directed by Kenneth G. Crane and written by Ed Wood Jr., while other sources list it as a 1966 production titled BODY OF THE PREY, directed and written by Norman Thompson (as "Earl Norman"). Until a proper print of this film is found bearing the true credits, we just have to revel in its awfulness sans knowing the truth. Regal Video also unleased BLOOD FREAK for the first time on VHS, as well as THREE ON A MEATHOOK, THE DEVIL MASTER (a.k.a. THE DEMON LOVER), NIGHTMARE CIRCUS (a.k.a. BARN OF THE NAKED DEAD), DEATH WISH CLUB and various other horror and martial arts titles before going out of business and selling their library to budget label Video Treasures. One thing was for sure: Whoever did the artwork on their video boxes was obsessed with blonde-haired women and used them unsparingly on the covers, whether they had anything to do with the film or not. One of the true standouts on video shelves during the 80's, but not always for good reasons. Most Regal tapes are highly collectable today. { text from critcononline.com }
