General info :
Thorn EMI Video was the business name of the home video division of Thorn EMI PLC, a multimedia and electronics company, and was originally known as EMI Videogram until 1981.
Its North American division was formed that same year as part of a larger home video and television enterprise known as Thorn EMI Video Programming Enterprises.
In 1984, the parent company formed a joint venture with HBO that was known as Thorn EMI/HBO Video, later known as HBO/Cannon Video (when Cannon Films bought Thorn EMI Screen Entertainment and Thorn EMI's other entertainment holdings) and the U.S. unit was absorbed into the new partnership.
Thorn EMI Video remained active outside the U.S. until 1986, when it was absorbed into Cannon.
