Review of Pulse (2002) by David C — 19 Jun 2008
The build-ups worked quite well I'd say, and the (female) cast was hot... but at the end of the day, the scary monsters in this one are pasty white flickering old people! And the soul sucking seems anticlimactic.
As a side note though, the BASS in the movie is CRAZY! I would probably buy it just to put the woofer on my DVD's sound system through its paces. I was shaking my dorm room with this movie.
Unfortunately, I can't pull the reviewer's cliche and say "the original was far better and this film is yet another example how American cinema fails miserably at ripping off Asian horror" (the newest example of which, I believe is "The Eye" of which I have seen the original and probably will say this exact line in a review about the remake). But either way, it works for a "scary movie night" I suppose... especially if you want to show off your awesome speakers.
