Théo Christine Plays The Lead Role In Infested
While French movies may not compare to Hollywood’s, they have created timeless masterpieces. Our review team at The Road To Peace Films puts Infested on that list.
Théo Christine’s acting was a cherry on the already exciting plot. From his loneliness in the beginning to his rivalry with his sister to his determination to turn things around at the end, every action resonates with viewers.
While Christine got his much-needed breakthrough with Infested, this is not his first movie. The guy starred in Gran Turismo, BRI, Summit Fever, By Your Side, and La derniere vague.
The French actor’s impeccable acting prowess is all thanks to his drama classes at the Cours Florent.

A big fan of the Spider-Man franchise, this rising acting sensation felt right at home filming Infested, also called Vermins.
Théo Christine Nears 30: The Same Age As His Character Kaleb
28 Years Old Théo Christine was born in Vendee in 1996.
Having built up so much suspense around Infested, let us soon break down the movie’s plot.
Well, the movie stars 30-year-old animal-obsessed Kaleb (Théo Christine). He comes across a poisonous spider, which adds to his growing weird collection.
Kaleb asked for more than he could handle, as the spider was a dangerous species that reproduced in haste and killed without remorse.

Our review team also found that the people living in Kaleb’s building all had stories to tell. They belong to a lower-income group that the government ignores.
Although he is still in his twenties, Theo Christine perfectly portrays a 30-year-old man’s emotions.
Infested director Sébastien Vaniček cast Theo while the movie was still in its early stages of writing. He loved Christine’s previous roles and knew he could take the movie on his back.
Théo came really in the early process of the writing, because I knew his work, and I knew I needed someone who would have the shoulders to bear the movie, to take the movie on his back.

And he’s also the flesh of the movie, he is the movie, he’s everything, he has to be the image of the movie.
Vermins, aka Infested, premiered in Shudder on April 26, 2024. Théo Christine, Finnegan Oldfield, Jérôme Niel, Lisa Nyarko, and Sofia Lesaffre starred in this arachnid horror flick.
Our final thoughts: Infested is an underrated movie that delivers more than it promises. There are many eww-inducing moments, jump scares, and sexual chaos, making the film feel like a rollercoaster ride.
