Genuine scare with a few character flaws
This movie was genuinely entertaining because it kept the thrill and scare up right until the very end. The only thing I really did not enjoy about the movie was that the characters were not developed very well. The cast members in this movie did a good job keeping up with the fright of the film but their individual characters were very static. The characters did not change much throughout the story and none of them brought too much to the story line that wouldn't have been there just with the basic plot. I wish we could have been able to see more of the characters and how they handled situations other than just how they freaked out when they got scared. I would not say that the acting is poor because I think the actors did well with what they had to play with, but I think that the story should have offered more development and insight into each character. Other than a character development flaw, I thought the film was pretty good. I would recommend it to people who like to be scared and don't mind static characters and a story that is similar to many that have been done before. If you just enjoy the thriller/horror genre, then this film is a good one to see.

A Young Kristen Bell - What's NOT to Like?
Bell delivers a powerful and emotive lead role in this dystopian film. While dealing with the suicide of her boyfriend, Mattie (Bell) has to uncover the reason why he did it. He left clues that the heartthrob Dexter (Ian Somerhalder) finds, and together they have to outrun the evil forces pouring through the door left open for them by her ex.The ending makes a statement on technology that resonates today. But PULSE came out in 2006.

Ehh.. it was okay.
Typical early 2000s horror/thriller movie. Pretty good.

Great Version: More Kudos for the UNRATED versions
I had wanted to see the Theatrical release, but now I am definitely glad that I did not.The amount of material deleted in the theatrical edition is not only substantial, but it is also pivotal.Make very sure you listen in 5.1 to this film, because several scenes make the most of this technology.More and more, the invasive edits that destroy stories are making unrated versions the defacto quality versions.The story is pretty straight forward, but the scare factors come from the slow build, and the theatrical edition had the slow build elements deleted.Also, the DVD menu is a great design. The deleted scenes are, once again, ones that should not have been. The making of, and the Special FX elements are very good. Also, with two commentaries, forget about the directors, and focus on the second one with Joel Soisson and others... not only is the second one more informative, but its damned entertaining.Another first rate Romanian shoot, just goes to show that low cost does not mean low value, just that MPAA approved means the story is eviscerated.This is pretty cool in many ways: one of the subordinate characters is now in THE REAPER on one of the Broadcast networks, as they busily and somewhat sardonically collect souls for return to Hell on behalf of the Devil ( Shades of "Constantine" and GHOST RIDER , I think ? Anyways, loads of fun and all great movies ).ENJOY

Blu Ray Transfer review
This not a review of the film, its a review of the Blu Ray TRANSFER itself from a non-tech language savvy guy.If you've ever seen an 80s movie where the scenes take place in a smoke filled bar, then that is exactly what you are gonna be watching in this so called"Stunning Hi Def 1080p transfer".... Uh....Yeah...Right. Hi Def mosquito noise more like it, but if you like watching mosquito noise in HD, then this is for you.If you've ever watched the Blu Ray of Predator then you know exactly what I'm talking about.This is worse.In my opinon there are no artifacts or "jaggies" like you get watching an upscaled dvd. So its actually above an upscaled 1080i dvd, but below a true 1080p BD.The colors are flat, they are not bright, but the picture is sharp in the sense that there are no artifacts. Just that never ending cloud of smoke, mosquito noise etc.You feel like you need to wipe your tv screen down. These movies actually look ten times better on dvd watched on a standard tv (which thankfully I kept)You have been warned.

I really liked this one, but I might be in the minority on that
I really like this one. The cause of the trouble is kind of creative, and I love the way it builds slowly in scale as it goes. Watching it a second time, you spot a bunch of little things you missed the first time around, which is also fun. I don't find it scary, but I saw a lot of horror movies as a child and have kinda lost the ability to feel afraid of movie monsters, so YMMV. This movie isn't without its flaws, of course, but it's easy to get sucked in and overlook the problems. Fair warning though - apparently my opinion is weird and most people find this movie slow and dumb. Dunno what to tell you there.

Love My Pulse DVD
I really like my new "Pulse" DVD. I always check the rating first thing and when I saw this movie was PG13 and starring Ian Somerhalder I loved it. To tell you the truth, if Ian Somerhalder wasn't in this movie, I would not have bought it. This movie is also the full-screen edition. In my opinion "Pulse" is more of a suspense movie than a horror movie. I don't like scary movies at all so this works out great for me. I loved all of the actors in this movie. They are very believable. I was a little surprised at the end of the movie. Most movies go for the happy ever after, or you think the worst is over, but not this one. This movie also comes with special features. It has deleted and additional scenes, creating the fear: making "Pulse", the visual effects of "Pulse", "Pulse" and the paranormal, 2 feature commentaries with the filmmakers, theatrical trailer. My favorite is the commentaries and watching how they made it. Over all, it is a great movie and if my copy of it gets destroyed I would buy it again.

Pulse
I liked Pulse... It wasn't great but it was still decent and made for a brainless movie night with a friend. It's another movie about the dead meeting today's technology... It's been done before but Pulse pulls it off better than some other variations ie the really crappy "One Missed Call". I paid $5.99 for this title... I suggest you find it cheap like I did or rent it first.
