Early on (with a few exceptions), TriStar's films were released on home video by either [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment|RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video (now Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)]], CBS/FOX/[[Key Video]] (now [[20th Century Fox Home Entertainment]]), occasionally [[Vestron Video]]/[[Lightning Video]] (now [[Lionsgate Home Entertainment]]), or [[Thorn EMI Video (UK)|Thorn-EMI]]/[[HBO/Cannon Video]]/[[HBO Home Entertainment|HBO Video (now HBO Home Entertainment)]], among other companies. In 1988, following Columbia's buyout of TriStar, home video distribution of films produced by the studio moved exclusively to RCA/Columbia. From 1985 until 1994, TriStar also distributed films produced by [[Carolco Pictures]]; these were released on the [[Artisan Entertainment|International Video Entertainment and Live Home Video]] labels (now Lionsgate Home Entertainment), often with TriStar's logo cut. ''Cliffhanger'' is the only Carolco film in which the rights were retained by the original distributor. The [[Taft Entertainment Pictures|Taft Entertainment]] movies they released (such as ''The Monster Squad'' and Stephen King's ''The Running Man'') now belong to [[Paramount Pictures]] after Taft merged into [[Republic Pictures (1985-2010)|Republic]] and then [[Viacom (1952-2006)|Viacom]].
