Republic Entertainment, Inc. was a distribution company primarily concerned with the syndication of American film libraries to television, including the Republic Pictures catalogue and the National Telefilm Associates (NTA) film library. It was successful enough on cable television between 1983 and 1985 that it renamed itself Republic Pictures and undertook film production and home video sales as well.
