Review of Pulse (2006) by Marc5477 — 23 Jan 2016
If you dont know science dont write stories with tech at center stage. Simply as that. The premise of this movie is that some college kids discovered a "frequency" that had never been observed previously using a computer and apparently a computer hack can fix the problem.
.. Clearly the movie was going for some sort of wireless frequency and once the aliens arrived they took over internet servers. There is no such thing as a frequency we never knew existed, not within known tech.
There are only frequencies that are not usable for various physics reasons. So anyway, the premise is garbage but hey, its a horror movie... or at least it tried to be. The problem is that its not scary in any traditional sense.
There are no scary monsters, just some blurry human looking things that apparently take away your will to live. How? No revealed. Why? Not revealed. Who are these aliens? Not discussed. But hey, they are apparently afraid of the color red! So mysterious.
... oooh aahhh. Lame. Stick with Pinhead, Jason and Freddy.
