===Background=== | |||
New World Pictures was founded by B-movie legend Roger Corman in 1970. However, they didn't use an on-screen logo until 1976. In recent years, Roger Corman has been reissuing parts of the pre-1984 New World library on VHS and DVD on his own [[Concorde Films|New Concorde Home Video]] label (Corman left New World in 1984). Shout! Factory has been re-releasing and releasing films previously unreleased on DVD for pre-1984 New World films, but some have also seen releases from Scorpion Releasing and Code Red, under license from Corman himself. The 1970-1983 films except ''Battle Beyond the Stars'' (co-produced with and released through [[Orion Pictures|Orion]]) were licensed to [[Viacom (pre-2006)|Viacom Enterprises]] (now "[[CBS Television Distribution]]") for TV distribution. The syndie rights to the pre-1984 titles are now owned by [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]] and licensed to [[Trifecta Entertainment and Media]]. The rights to most of the New World Pictures library, post-1984, are held by [[Lakeshore Entertainment]], while Image Entertainment (previously Anchor Bay Entertainment) holds the home video rights; however, Kino Lorber, Code Red, and Arrow Video USA have also released some post-1984 New World films on home video. | |||
