Rolling Thunder Pictures

Rolling Thunder Pictures was a short-lived film distribution company, set up under Miramax Films by producer Lawrence Bender and Quentin Tarantino, that was headed by Tarantino. It specialized on releasing independent, cult, or foreign films to theaters. The company was created in 1995 but closed in 1998 due to poor sales. The company was named after the film "Rolling Thunder". The following films were re-released under the Rolling Thunder Pictures label:

*"Chungking Express"
*"Switchblade Sisters"
*"The Mighty Peking Man"
*"Sonatine"
*"Detroit 9000"

The label also released the independent films "Hard Core Logo" and "Curdled". The 1994 Jet Li film "Fist of Legend" had been scheduled for a Rolling Thunder Pictures release, but eventually Dimension Films released it. Finally, Rolling Thunder Pictures only released the 1981 film "The Beyond" for a theatrical run. Other production companies re-released on DVD later.
