Intervision Video Ltd was a short-lived but infamous British home video distributor of the early 1980s, remembered for its lurid VHS releases of horror, exploitation, and cult films that became entangled in the UK’s “Video Nasties” moral panic. Founded by Mike Tenner and Richard Cooper, the company specialized in eye-catching box art and controversial titles like Dawn of the Dead, Maniac, and Shivers, which drew the ire of censors and campaigners. Though it folded by 1984 as bigger players dominated the market, Intervision’s logo, bold packaging, and underground catalogue left a lasting mark on VHS history, making it a cult name among collectors and horror fans.
