Monterey Home Video

Monterey Home Video

Monterey Home Video is a home video company co-founded in 1982 by Scott Mansfield, founder of Monterey Movie Company, and Noel C. Bloom, founder of Family Home Entertainment. Monterey is the second sub-label of NCB Entertainment, after FHE.

Its first release was Deadly Games, a film made by Mansfield. He went into discussion with Bloom about releasing it himself, and Bloom agreed to let him found his own division of NCB. Mansfield then released more titles under the Monterey label; early releases included a Dorsey Burnette tribute concert, a Sandahl Bergman aerobic dance video, Dynamite Chicken, a concert by The Tubes, Oh, Alfie!, Werewolf of Washington, Can She Bake a Cherry Pie?, And Nothing But the Truth, Tomorrow, The Children of Sanchez, and Autumn Born.[1] They also distribute some Grateful Dead concert films, including The Grateful Dead Movie and Dead Ahead.

Currently, they sell their catalog on DVD, including documentaries, self-help videos, and PBS programs.[2]
