    Whether or not to recommend the interactive film Dead Reset is not a simple task, because enjoying it depends on whether you're willing to accept certain questionable tastes. If you're expecting a production with cinematic standards, this is definitely not the place to visit. But if you're looking for fun with typical 1980s B-movie performances, a delightfully cliché narrative, and increasingly absurd choices, there's a gem to be discovered here.

    Dead Reset is worth experiencing for its performances, its tense atmosphere built on strong lighting and sound design choices, and well-paced story that makes you want to keep finding out what will happen next, but its entertainment value wanes after you've hit the credits. It's less enticing on replays or 'resets,' and its worst attributes don't help carry the experience beyond a single play through.
