Family Home Entertainment
U.S.A. Home Video (1983–1987) |
Family Home Entertainment (FHE) was an American home video company founded in 1980 by Noel C. Bloom.[1][2][3][4] It was a division of International Video Entertainment, which had its headquarters in Newbury Park, California.[5]
History
The company was founded by Noel C. Bloom as a direct opposite to an earlier company he founded,
The Lone Ranger, Shazam!, Blackstar, and The New Adventures of Zorro, plus the only Filmation movie released at the time, Journey Back to Oz.[58][59]
Early FHE releases were distributed by
MCA (most notably in Canada).[72]
In 1982, the company introduced USA Home Video as a non-family division of the company. Two years later in 1984, both FHE and USA became part of Noel Bloom's NCB Entertainment Group (which also included Bloom's other labels
Barbie film series, Crayola Home Entertainment product and Baby Einstein (until the rights to that franchise were acquired by Disney). It also had a one off theatrical release division, FHE Pictures, established in 2002; its first and only release was Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie.[79][80][81] Ultimately, the brand was discontinued in 2005 by new owner Lionsgate (who had purchased Artisan in 2003[82]), as the division restructured into Lionsgate Family Entertainment (an internal name only; from that point forward, all family-oriented releases carried the normal Lionsgate logo).[83]
