Its most popular releases include arthouse films Pop Skull and Threat; animated series Godkiller and Xombie; lifestyle-DVD franchise Fitness For Indie Rockers; and documentaries Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods, Your Mommy Kills Animals, N.Y.H.C., and . Formed in 2005 by filmmaker Matt Pizzolo and producer as a film production/marketing/distribution studio, the company has grown to include a comic book/graphic novel publishing division, two DVD Premiere shingles (indie-lifestyle sublabel DiY-Fest Video and cult/exploitation sublabel ), and fashion/branded-apparel division . HALO-8's film catalog is split roughly 50/50 between in-house productions and third-party acquisitions. HALO-8 made a name for itself by championing controversial films such as animal-rights documentary Your Mommy Kills Animals (the film drew the ire of the Center for Consumer Freedom, who waged a legal campaign to block its release) and by developing unique, tech-driven production and distribution strategies such as designing the \"illustrated film\" format (a cinematic style of limited animation that merges sequential art with 3D CGI, motion graphics and dramatic voice performances in the style of a radio play) and developing the non-linear film format \"Ether Films\" (which adds hypertext and multi-platform transmedia functionality to film)."@en . . . . .
