OctoArts Films (also known as OctoArts Films International for foreign films) is a Filipino film production and distribution company founded in 1989 by Orly R. Ilacad.[1] A veteran record producer, Ilacad only decided to establish the film company when producer Simon Ongpin agreed to be its head.[2]
In 2024, OctoArts Films established its YouTube channel making available online the movies they have produced and released since 1990. In addition, the production company also acquired some of the film libraries from defunct movie productions (CineSuerte, Moviestars Production (co-distributed with Solar Pictures with few exceptions), Four-N Films, Tagalog Ilang-Ilang Productions, Lea Productions, etc.) making them available also online.
