History

Twisted Pictures was formed after the box office success of Saw in 2004, which led to a nine-picture distribution deal with Lionsgate. The company went on to produce six sequels in the Saw film series. Carl Mazzocone served as president for four years.

In June 2007, the company formed a joint venue with RKO Pictures to remake four films out of RKO library. The remakes include, Five Come Back (1939), I Walked with a Zombie (1943), The Body Snatcher (1945), and Bedlam (1946).

In October 2009, Twisted Pictures landed a deal with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre rights-holders Bob Kuhn and Kim Henkel after discussions with Platinum Dunes fell apart. The deal is for multiple films.

On June 28, 2012 Twisted Pictures opened a new television division. The first production of Twisted Television is a television adaptation of Anger Management.
