De Laurentiis Entertainment Group (DEG) was an entertainment production company and distribution unit founded by producer Dino De Laurentiis. The company is notable for producing ''Manhunter'', ''Blue Velvet'', the horror films ''Near Dark'' and ''Evil Dead II'', ''King Kong Lives'' (the sequel to De Laurentiis' remake of ''King Kong''), and ''Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure'', as well as distributing ''Transformers: The Movie''. The company's main studios were located in Wilmington, North Carolina, which is now EUE/Screen Gems Studios. The studio's first releases were in 1986 but went bankrupt two years later after ''Million Dollar Mystery'', among other films, failed at the box office. ==History== In 1983, Dino De Laurentiis produced ''Firestarter'' in Wilmington. The governor of North Carolina, James Hunt, claimed that the filming increased economic activity in the state. Hunt used incentives and loans to allow De Laurentiis to buy a local warehouse to convert into a studio. In early 1984, De Laurentiis founded the North Carolina Film Corporation, with Martha Schumacher as president. In 1985, DEG acquired Embassy Pictures from The Coca-Cola Company. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「De Laurentiis Entertainment Group」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
