Trimark Home Video
History Edit
Trimark Home Video was originally started in 1984 as Vidmark Entertainment by Mark Amin. The company released its first videos in 1985. Earlier on, the company had a pact with Republic Pictures Home Video for distribution and duplication, although Republic continued to duplicate tapes even after the split before Republic's duplication division was sold to Rank Video Services America in 1988.
The company entered film production in 1987, as an international sales broker and eventually a film distribution. The film distribution branch adopted the name Trimark Pictures in 1990, for the releases of Warlock and Scissors.
Vidmark, Inc. continued to diversified and soon renamed to Trimark Holdings in 1992. The company acquired International Broadcast Systems and rebranded under Trimark Television. In 1993, the company entered its foray onto video games by launching Trimark Interactive, the label was soon sold in 1997 to Graphix Zone.
In 1995, the company launched Kidmark as a label for children's releases. In 1997, the home video division was renamed to Trimark Home Video and soon started producing DVDs.
In 2000, Trimark merged with Lions Gate Entertainment, and in 2001, was one of the labels alongside Avalanche Home Entertainment, Eaton Entertainment and Studio Home Entertainment that were consolidated into Lions Gate Home Entertainment. The Trimark label quietly disappeared in 2002.
