Item 7.01  Regulation FD Disclosure

         On June 12, 2006, Image Entertainment, Inc. (the "Company") referred to
the June 5, 2006 Delaware Court of Chancery ruling that Image's Board of
Directors will become classified at its next annual meeting. Under the Court's
ruling, all six of Image's Board seats will be up for election at the upcoming
annual stockholders' meeting scheduled for October 10, 2006.

         Image noted that in September 2005 the Board of Directors of the
Company appointed a Special Committee made up of independent directors to
explore all potential strategic opportunities in an effort to maximize Image
stockholder value. Thereafter, Image, in April 2006, engaged Lazard as its sole
financial advisor to assist in that effort.

         The Company does not intend to provide ongoing disclosure with respect
to the exploration of strategic alternatives or the progress of the Special
Committee's process.

         Unless otherwise required by law, the Company disclaims any intention
or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
