Very good low budget retrotech dystopian sci-fi

A lot of ideas here and they are crushed into a single film.

The cyberpunk elements and dystopian vibe is way better than Hollywood has ever been able to capture in their big budget flicks.

Some John Carpenter pulse synth, a kind of 80's feel and some weird salvage tech that feels somehow familiar.

Most people wouldn't have enough cultural context to get a lot of this movie. It's too dense for most viewers nowadays.

I found it engaging and the visuals were convincing. The effects for the EMP burst and the exposition were really well done.

The acting was not cringe at all. Great characterization.

I am a big fan of 70's science fiction and this reminded me of the very best films from that era.

Everybody liked it? Well I don't.

Once again I got tricked into watching a movie by reading positive reviews. I should have known better but you never know, sometimes there are really good low-budget indie movies. Unfortunately this is not one of them. Even though the actors are unknown to me it wasn't their fault because their acting was actually not bad. It's just the story and the lack of explanation that makes this movie just mediocre. Slow paste with almost no action, no sci-fi scenes at all probably due to the low budget. Instead you get a couple guys with old computers, the kind of computers you would not even find on the thrash pile anymore. It doesn't make any sense since we're in a far future. Like the whole movie that doesn't make any sense. Waste of time for me.

Unknown host is hacking your computer

The film takes place in Austin, Texas now known as "City 6" twenty-five years after "the reset." The reset was never fully explained and provided one of those mystery aspects that was unnecessary. The world lost most of its modern electronics (we see VHS and record players) and there is a constant cloud cover over City 6. Announcements about the dangers of airborne radioactive contamination that is present is made daily. People take iodine pills.

The story centers on Simon (Josh Caras) an electronic geek who recently got a job with VODO, a corporation that are the benign rulers of the city. Currency is all electronic bits. Food and gas is available in supply, enough to prevent a Mad Max world. After the suicide of Eric, Simon meets Max (Ian Christopher Noel) an anarchist type electronic wizard who wants out of the city. He gets a coded message that sends him and Simon out to look for the mysterious answers following obscure clues.

THEME PLOT SPOILER: The film asks the question of security vs. freedom. VODO provides for the people and keeps them alive. "Technology maintains stability." They don't want more people to come in and overload their capacity to produce. Nor do they want people to leave and risk telling people about the City. There is something else out there, but what? Other cities? Desert? Radiation?

Note: Iodine pills would no longer be needed after 25 years. The question would be was there something else in the pill, or was this something the script writers flubbed on their research?

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. The back of Joslyn Jensen neck was the only eye candy
