Infestation: Fantastic Fest 2023 – Restore Point

Restore Point Movie Review

RESTORE POINT MOVIE REVIEW

In Prague in the year 2041, new tech allows people to upload their consciousness at regular intervals so in case they are killed, they can be resurrected with their memories up to that point intact. The catch is, if you don’t back up within 48 hours, you can’t legally be brought back. A young detective named Emma is after a terrorist group called “River of Life” who are killing people timed so they cannot be brought back to protest the ‘unnatural’ tech and wouldn’t you know it, powerful people are pulling coverups, things aren’t as they seem, and she has no idea who to trust. Chris and Wright thought this was a A+ sci-fi noir that needs to be seen by a LOT more people so they’re here to tell you about this Fantastic Fest treat.

Born in the wilds of northern Virginia, Chris managed to put all of his survival skills to use and barely escaped with his life to Austin Texas in 1992 where ever since he’s dabbled in everything from plumber’s assistant to sandwich maker, from band to bar management. An opportunity to see theatrical release films for free by becoming a critic on a local public access show called “The Reel Deal” turned into a full-time job when Chris and his friends decided to take it to the internet. They built the site Spill.com, adding multiple podcasts and animated features, to no small amount of success. During this time, a fortuitous friendship sprung up between Chris and young Brian Salisbury, who was also a local film critic, and they merged their forces of will, and their laundry list of ideas for shows, to eventually build this community of critics. While Brian eventually followed his heart to a new family, Chris continues on with a cast of colorful folks from all over the country (and a few others). You can also check out Chris in his videocast, along with Martin Thomas and Danni Danger, that One Of Us does with our friends at Bell of Lost Souls: Crossover Event. He also regularly guests on the video game website Rage Select. Follow Chris on Twitter and Facebook and check out his Amazon Wish List.

Wright hails from the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. His passion for filmmaking brought him to Austin to study and make movies. Since then he’s had his hand in acting, writing, and directing his own short films with numerous like-minded film geeks he’s met along his journey. His newest interest has brought him into the podcasting world. He co-hosted a few different movie related podcasts such as ‘And Now This’ and ‘The Match Cut’. He currently co-hosts with longtime friend, Eric Samaniego, where they talk shop about the grimiest, trashiest, lost gems of movies on their show, ‘Trash in the Can’. Wright also guests and hosts reviews on Screener Squad and Highly Suspect Reviews as well as co-hosts Digital Noise with Chris Cox.
