Sherpix, Inc. was an American independent film distribution company that operated in the US and Canada between 1965 and 1974. Louis K. Sher founded the distributor as a subsidiary of his arthouse cinema chain Art Theatre Guild (ATG), which owned dozens of theaters throughout the United States. Sherpix specialized in art films, foreign films, erotica, and later pornographic films. The company's porn releases challenged the prevailing obscenity laws in the United States. Sherpix oriented its marketing to open-minded middle-class audiences, including young couples, rather than the "dirty old men" typically associated with adult movie theaters.
