Today, Shout! Factory announced a multi-year agreement with CJ E&M, the leading film distribution and production company in Korea, to be the exclusive North American home entertainment distributor for two widely popular Korean motion pictures. Under the multi-property alliance, Shout! Factory has secured the rights to distribute the Korean 3D creature thriller Sector 7 and action-packed adventure Quick for all packaged media (DVD/Blu-ray) home entertainment releases and digital distribution in the U.S and Canada.
Is this the beginning of an endless string of Asian entertainment from Shout! Factory? Let’s hope so! Check out the trailers for Quick and Sector 7.
