Based in Bridgeport, Connecticut, this American label began in 2012 rescuing 1960s to 1980s adult and exploitation films and has widened into horror, action and other genre cinema. Its own lab scans surviving elements, usually original negatives, in 2K or 4K, so most releases are new restorations, many on 4K UHD. Sister imprints include Cinématographe for American art cinema and the production arm Vinegar Syndrome Pictures.
