Castle Films

American film company

Castle Films was a film company founded in California by former newsreel cameraman Eugene W. Castle (1897–1960) in 1918. Originally, Castle produced industrial and advertising films, and relocated to New York City. Then in 1937, the company pioneered the production and distribution of 8 mm and 16 mm films for home-movie use, starting with the phenomenally successful Hindenburg Explodes! (1937), a newsreel souvenir showing the recent airship disaster.
