Code Red DVD was an independent American home entertainment company specializing in retro grindhouse, exploitation, and horror films, operated by Bill Norton Olsen. The company originally began releasing films on DVD in 2006, and later began releasing and re-releasing titles on Blu-ray.

History
Code Red was begun in 2006 by president Bill Norton Olsen. The company's first release was Don't Go in the Woods... Alone!, released on October 24, 2006.
