Seven Arts Pictures was a low-profile/B-movie distribution company established on July 19, 1990, as a joint venture between Carolco Pictures and New Line Cinema, and was headed by Mario F. Kassar. Today, the entire Seven Arts library is now owned by StudioCanal. This studio is not to be confused with UK's "Seven Arts Entertainment" and its division "Seven Arts International" and Ray Stark and Eliot Hyman's "Seven Arts Productions", who merged with Warner Bros. Pictures in 1967 forming "Warner Bros.-Seven Arts". | '''Seven Arts Pictures''' was a low-profile/B-movie distribution company established on July 19, 1990, as a joint venture between [[Carolco Pictures]] and [[New Line Cinema]], and was headed by Mario F.

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' A French VHS of ''The Dark Wind'' presumably overlaid the film's French audio track onto what was supposed to be a U.S. theatrical print (it went straight-to-video in America). As a result, the Seven Arts jingle is replaced with that of UGC, the film's French distributor. | '''Music/Sounds Variant:''' A French VHS of ''The Dark Wind'' presumably overlaid the film's French audio track onto what was supposed to be a U.S. theatrical print (it went straight-to-video in America).
