Pulse
 

Has anybody seen the previews for Pulse? I went to see Silent Hill and when that preview came on it actually was kind of disturbing. I guess the movie is another japanese remake in the same vein as The Grudge. It's one of my must see picks.....

Oh boy...this ain't gonna be pretty.

I saw it last week or so. It looked decent. Of course that's a trailer's job :D

from the trailer it looks like they changed a lot of the emphasis to be more reliant on the 'ghosts in the computer' aspect which really wasnt the focus of the japanese version.

its hard to tell .. it could be ok ... but i dont think its the same movie.

I forgot all about the ghosts on the computer part. That's what I didn't like. I'll rent it eventually and re-edit it to my tastes :D

Sorry, in my miserable ignorance I didn't realize it was a remake. Huge duh there....

when I saw the preview anyway

sounds interesting, do you guys kno where i can see the trailer?

It looked pretty interesting. I'd like to get my hands on the Japanese version first, but that probably won't happen. So, I'll go and see Pulse and then see the Japansese version. (That's how my luck generally flows, but it ain't so bad).

the Japanese version got a commercial release in the states not too long ago. I know Netflix at least carries it.
Every time a topic about this movie (Kaïro) comes up I pimp how it's one of the greatest movies of all time, so I'm not gonna do that this time (except that I just kinda did)
