In 1990, [[New Line Cinema]] established its own video label as New Line Home Video (later renamed New Line Home Entertainment in 2001) and started releasing its videos the following year through [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment#RCA.2FColumbia_Pictures_Home_Video|RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video]] (which became [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment#Columbia_TriStar_Home_Entertainment|Columbia TriStar Home Video]]) while Laserdisc releases were exclusively distributed by [[Image Entertainment]]. Prior to this, RCA/Columbia had been releasing some New Line films on video including the first two ''Critters'' films, ''Alone in the Dark'' (1982 version), ''Quiet Cool'', ''My Demon Lover'' and ''House Party''. Other distributors had also been releasing New Line films on video such as [[Media Home Entertainment]] (''Nightmare on Elm Street 1-5''), [[HBO Home Entertainment|HBO Video]] (''Xtro'' and ''The Blood of Heroes'') and [[Artisan_Entertainment#Live_Entertainment|LIVE Entertainment]] (''Babar The Movie'', ''Chicago Joe and the Showgirl'' and ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles''). Even after forming its own video label, New Line still licensed some titles to LIVE such as ''Drop Dead Fred'' (a PolyGram/Working Title production which New Line released theatrically in the US), ''Glengarry Glen Ross'', ''London Kills Me'' (a [[Fine Line Features]] release) and all [[Seven Arts Pictures|Seven Arts]] films which New Line released (Seven Arts was a New Line/[[Carolco Pictures|Carolco]] joint venture which resulted in video rights going to LIVE). New Line's acquisition of [[Nelson Entertainment]] in 1991 enhanced its home video library; they distributed some [[Castle Rock Entertainment]] films and reissued several former [[Embassy Home Entertainment]] titles in addition to the main studio's selections. On January 28, 1994, New Line's video distribution shifted to [[Turner Home Entertainment]] after Turner acquired New Line. After Time Warner (now "WarnerMedia") bought out Turner in 1996, New Line's video distribution shifted once again to [[Warner Home Video]]. In 2008, it became a division of Warner Home Video and folded 2 years later. | In 1990, [[New Line Cinema]] established its own video label as New Line Home Video (later renamed New Line Home Entertainment in 2001) and started releasing its videos the following year through [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment#RCA.2FColumbia_Pictures_Home_Video|RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video]] (which became [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment#Columbia_TriStar_Home_Entertainment|Columbia TriStar Home Video]]) while Laserdisc releases were exclusively distributed by [[Image Entertainment]].

'''Availability:''' Scarce. It's seen on New Line/Castle Rock releases by Columbia TriStar/Turner Home Entertainment on VHS and Image Entertainment on Laserdisc. Titles with this logo include ''City Slickers'', ''Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare'', ''Mr. Saturday Night'', ''Late for Dinner'', ''National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1'', ''Above the Rim'', and ''North''. This was used on a few titles distributed by Turner Home Entertainment such as ''The Mask'', ''Dumb and Dumber'' (only some prints, later printings use the next logo), ''Corrina Corrina'', ''8 Seconds'' and ''Wes Craven's New Nightmare''. This can also be spotted on Comedy Central's print of the film ''Honeymoon in Vegas'' and Starz/Encore's print of ''Year of the Comet''. Strangely, MGM Home Entertainment's 2000 VHS release of ''Honeymoon in Vegas'' retains this, but not on the 2000 DVD release. This also appeared on the VHS screener retailer of ''Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins'' (the actual video release of this would use the next logo), as well as the UK VHS release. | '''Availability:''' Scarce.
