Release date mix ups

Made a mistake in the last update. “The Tesseract” is being released in Japan this fall, not “Octane”. “Octane” did recently premiere at the American Film Market Festival on Feb 22, 2003.

There is no confirmation regarding this and I’d take any news reports about this with a grain of salt. Every week, you hear of some actor who...
