Dimension Pictures was a film studio that existed in the 1970s and primarily worked in the exploitation field. It is not to be confused with the later Dimension Films.
History
Dimension was founded in 1970 by Lawrence Woolner, an exhibitor who had made a number of films, including several with Roger Corman. He hired the husband and wife team of Stephanie Rothman and Charles S. Swartz to run the filmmaking division. Rothman and Swartz left in 1975 but the company continued until about 1981, when it filed for bankruptcy.[1]
