Pulse

Horror. Thriller
Imagine our wireless technologies made a connection to a world beyond our own. Imagine that world used that technology as a doorway into ours. Now, imagine the connection we made can’t be shut down. When you turn on your cell phone or log on to your e-mail, they’ll get in, you’ll be infected and they’ll be able to take life.

"Sonzero’s 90-minute version feels longer than the two-hour original, its turgid pacing and lazy generic ticks inducing the same boredom and lethargy as the onscreen virus" | |||
"If Pulse is unsurprising as a horror movie, as a campaign against the Internet, digital piracy, cellphones, and anything that computes anything, it's a riot" | ||||
"Ultimately, the glacial pace kills Pulse. What was dreadful and trance-like in the original feels here like nothing-much-at-all sandwiched between some stock horror jolts" | ||||
"Pulse isn't nearly as scary as watching your hard drive crash or having your BlackBerry conk out in the middle of a vital call." | ||||
"An unrewarding experience that won't scare you, but might make you think twice before opening email attachments." | ||||
"'Pulse' mimics the plot fundamentals, but lacks any traces of Mr. Kurosawa’s creepy minimalism and conceptual rigor." |
