Pulse (movie, 2006)

About This Movie / Film

A bleak exploration of technology and loneliness, Pulse arrived in theaters on August 11, 2006. Directed by Jim Sonzero and produced by Dimension Films and The Weinstein Company, this supernatural thriller is a remake of Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Japanese cult classic. The screenplay, co-written by horror icon Wes Craven and Ray Wright, envisions a world where the dead find a gateway into our reality through wireless signals.

The story follows Mattie, played by Kristen Bell, as she and her friends—including Ian Somerhalder and Christina Milian—realize that a computer virus has evolved into something far more predatory. These entities don't just haunt; they harvest the human will to live, leaving behind only shadows of ash. As the global infrastructure fails, Pulse captures a specific era of techno-paranoia, suggesting that the more connected we become through our screens, the more vulnerable we are to a profound, soul-crushing isolation.
