Former Rhino Records executives started this Los Angeles company in 2002, and it has traded as Shout! Studios since 2023. Its disc imprints are Scream Factory (horror, since 2012) and Shout Select, which put out new 2K and 4K scans with commissioned extras, plus TV box sets and the North American discs for GKIDS and Studio Ghibli.
