Herzog Film (German: Herzog Filmverleih) was a German film distribution company active in West Germany during the postwar era. In the Nazi era the release of films had been heavily centralised, but during the Allied occupation new distributors began to spring up across the country as the film industry gradually recovered. Herzog was based in Munich rather than Berlin which had historically dominated German cinema. One of the company's most notable releases was the controversial 1951 film The Sinner. It also released Austrian productions in the West German market.
