Wrekin Hill Entertainment is an American independent film production and distribution company based in Los Angeles, California. [1] Since their latest film released somewhere around the late 2010s, the company seems to be dormant.[ citation needed ]
In September 2010, it was announced that Chris Ball (who founded Newmarket Films in 1994) would leave the company to start a new distribution company. [2] This comes after Newmarket was acquired by Exclusive Media Group in 2009, though the company would release titles together. [3] [4] Ball also brought two colleagues from Newmarket to the company. [5] Two months later in November, Lionsgate announced that entered an agreement with the company for DVD home entertainment distribution. [6]
In March 2011, it was announced that Wrekin Hill launched a subsidiary label called Underhill Films (shown as Underhill Entertainmet on releases) and both will benefit from home entertainment distribution output deal with Lionsgate. [7]
