Background
: Concorde is a Los Angeles based B-movie company founded by Roger Corman, who previously started New World in 1970. The company was originally named Concorde-New Horizons, because Corman combined his new companies Concorde Pictures and New Horizons Pictures in 1983. In early 2000 the company was renamed New Concorde, and the New Horizons branch was sold out.
