hello! i'm asian.. my mother is thai and my father is filipino.. i agree that asians are really great when it comes to movies. especially HORROR movies. we asians don't abuse the power of technology because we like it realistic. "less is more". i don't hate western movies but i think whenever they recreate movies from asia, they tend to exaggerate it. :( i'm sorry, but it makes us laugh about the remakes because it sucks bigtime.
Ima watch this today!!! I watched like 20 Asian movies this summer, so I'm used to it. I'm 13 and when I say "I love to watch scary movies, I watched -movie name- last night." my friends think I'm scary and weird.
I'm not going to watch this. I almost shit on my pants with the trailer so I'm not going to take the risk to die with a heart attack watching the movie. This is scary as shit, I'm outta here.
THIS MIGHT MAKES YOU THINK THAT THIS MOVIE IS BAD:
Ive seen it and dont get me wrong. It was scary at some parts but most of the time it was not scary at all and you get the hang of what is going to happen next :( The trailer already shows the best parts. The end kinda disappointed me somehow. Even laughed sometimes.
It was a really good movie and it IS much scarier than most movies but it does not impress a hardcorehorrorfilmfan like me.
Pls somebody tell me a movie that actually scares me :)
@Norbi224466 Thanks man but ive seen that one too :) Liked it very much. Do you know more good ones? Except for ju-on because ive watched that one like 100 times :)
I am sure you've also seen Shutter, amazing movie! Well what about Tales of Two Sisters, One missed Call, Nightmare Detective and A Slit Mouthed Woman?:D
@Norbi224466 Ive seen A slit mouthed woman before but i cant remember it anymore. and ive seen one missed call too :( And ive heard of the others before but they were not appealing to me :) Thanks for the effort btw i may give them a try if i have time :D Do you know the movie [Rec]? pretty awesome
Yes, I've seen Rec. 1st one was quite nice, 2nd was real crap. If you like zombie movies I really recommend: "Dead Set". BEST ZOMBIE MOVIE I EVER SEEN:)
@Norbi224466 i did not like rec 2 neither. And dont be upset but ive seen dead set too :D Ive seen like almost every horrormovie thats worth watching i guess :( If i were a director i would make a sick horrormovie but nobody asks me for ideas of cause.
Ive only seen the remake of "Let the right one in" but even though i am not into that stuff it was an really great movie and it was well made. highly recommend it. "Let Me In - Trailer "
jajaja el video es de alguien de habla hispana, y la mayoria son comentarios de habla inglesa!xDadmas,discuten!jajajaja tdos sabmos qe, sin menospreciar culturas ni nada, los americans no tienen ni una pisca de imaginacion...las pliculas qe "asustan" americanas teniiian qe ser remakes, mas encima malos, por qe las peliculas creadas por ellos la mayoria dan asco...gracias por el trailer, y me encantan las peliculas asiaticas, y el cine asiatico en cuanto a terror, es el mejor.no discutan weas!xD
keep in mind, there was no "america" before we got here. it was just land.
...land filled with nomadic people, and other natives who fought over each other and their territories.. The land did not "Belong" to one people. There is no "we were here first" because they were fighting each other anyway. Whites were just the people who won the land.
So no, they are not the "only real americans". I don't know why people have this delusion of natives.
The UK and France and countries in Asia I know for sure has been influenced by AMERICAN music like hip hop. and hollywood movies, etc etc..
In fact the uniqe parts of American culture shows it's influence very much throughout the world. all the crazies from other countries going gaga over lady gag.
Which proves, EVEN MORE, that America has just as much culture as any European country that's for sure.. (Obviously). It shouldn't even have to be debated. So take care and live in ignorance ^_^
I think the US version was more entertaining and gave more detail, but this movie is like what some said...it F up your mind. Part of it is scary as hell. I don't remember the US version being scary. U left knowing what the US versioni s all about, but you're clueless with the J-version. I generally like Japanese horrors more, but not this one. It's scary, but ya clueless.
I love Japanese Horror (and Korean). They are so good compared t that hollywood trash, the last good horor movie produced in the west was Nightmare on Elmstreet in 1984. Isn't it just sad that they haven't been able to make a decent horrormovie with huge budgets ever since...
Looks like @jprithvi is in the minority here. I wish I could find this at my uni library!
I guess the question comes down to, would you less want to be damaged mentally or physically. Psychological horror gives me the honest-to-god creeps, torture porn and jack-in-the-box Hollywood horror on the other hand only makes me lose the game. Each may prefer their own, but I have an idea which resonates more deeply
man i just saw the trailer for both this and the remake trailer and they even used the same camera angles in some of the shots. Lame. I can understand converting the story, but copying the camera shots? That's just lazy. If it aint broke, don't remake it.
This movie is awful. Probably makes more sense if you are Japanese but for me it was tedious, boring and cynical. This isn't a scary movie but more of a social commentary. Film critics thought will love t his kind of crap.
jprithvi "this movie is awful" --> Kaïro is a master-piece. The yanks can't appreciate such japanese or european cinema. Too intellectual and sensitive for them.
@DaFawky "the lack of freedom of speech in France" lol Don't try to compare censorship in USA and France ha ha ha. You yank don't need freedom of speech when the major part of time you have a big mac into the mouth...lol
@DaFawky "It's much better than France" --< what a fucking good argument !!!!
Shit food, ugly girls, no healthcare, uncultured people, yes FATmerica is great !!! Yes, we can !!!! ha ha
"doesn't even make sense" --< engliche isn't my mother tongue. Don't try to make fun of me, you're so stupid that you're unable to speak any foreign language, fat prick. - the mouth full of bigmac- now do you see any sense, Kubiak ?? I think so.
@DaFawky "the MOST CULTURED people EVER" --< ha ha fat yanks are known to be the most uncultured people in the world, let me laugh, a half doesn't even know that Europe is a continent and not a country ha ha
"Engliche" --< engliche is a deliberate word to make fun about english.
"I'm not even fat" --< impossible, you're american.
"what the hell is a Kubiak" --< don't you remember Kubiak in Parker Lewis ?? this is american culture ha ha
@AttackTheGasStation1 Actually Americans are the most cultured. French people just have one culture, while Americans have their own culture PLUS many other cultures combined. That's more culture than you'll ever have. Your ignorance about American culture doesn't mean Americans don't have culture, it just proves your ignorance about the culture.
Saying "Engliche" just makes you look retarded.
Obviously you don't know much about Americans since you think everyone is fat. LOL,you are probably fat
@AttackTheGasStation1 That's because you talk about nonsense. You know nothing about America, and you made yourself look like a dumbass.
There's no fat guy around here.
You probably feel like you are talking to a wall because you are talking to a non-existent fat guy. You're probably projecting your fatness because they dont accept you in France.
I think you are schizophrenic and have something wrong with your sight or something. You might need to get that checked out. I suggest psychotherapy.
@DaFawky Americans are not the most cultured, sorry to say. They have a mixture of many other countries that MADE UP America. I don't agree with the French dude, but I don't agree with you either. America is way far from being culture in its' own, unique way, like many other countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia etc. I do not want to get involved in an argument, I am just verifying some things to you. Cya pal. :3
@PouresMaggie Actually, America is one of the most cultured. And no, many other countries have things that are a combination of other cultures, it's just been so damn long that they don't even know it. (great example, Japanese and Koreans). Don't give me BS that European countries' cultures aren't a mixture of other things. cough*McDonalds*cough.
cough*Scotland's "fried Pizza"*
So don't worry you have not verified anything, you just proved my point even more. :)
@DaFawky The examples were poor. McDonalds are exclusively American, they got more chain stores around the world, simply cause they're popular and sell a lot. I'll use what you said, America is a combination of other cultures nothing more or less. The only true American inhabitants are the Indians long proved and verified, THOSE people had a unique culture. This is my POV which I've longed studied. Take care, dude. (^_^)
@PouresMaggie exactly, and European countries are filled with them. Adding on to the mixture of different cultures in Europe. They were great examples actually!
European countries is a combination of other countries around them, it's just been so long that they don't even know it.
Oh no no, white Americans and black Americans are just as American as Indians(We're not obligated to move). Most natives were nomadic people anyway, & some even fought for land. Sono, just cuz whites won means nothing.
@AttackTheGasStation1 So one person's opinion turns into "The yanks"? Pretty shallow for someone who considers themselves "intellectual and sensitive". Try addressing the individual and keep your bigotry to yourself.
why hollywood is still copying our original horror movies, this one also have the similar one in hollywood, right, they should create their own story, in my opinion, i admit they have high technology and good at making effects, but sucks at creativity !!!!!
@aungkyawtun92 they don´t suck at creativity, they want make lot of money, so, they can´t take risks, they prefer buy or just copy the story, that´s sad
compré hoy la versión americana creo y en el interior viene que es basada en Kairo y definitivamente la original es decir la asiática se ve que está mucho mejor que la porqueria de remake gringo que compré hoy.
@2prize lmao asian horror films started my sleep paralysis disorder. even though i get those i still watch it... i just need someone to watch it with. hollywood horror films are shit compared to asian horror films (thai, jap, korean)
Truño de pelicula en cuanto a terror se refiere, no da miedo en absoluto, si acaso unos 15 segundos de las casi 2 horas q dura el film. Innecesariamente lenta, no se porque la tildaron como la pelicula más terrorífica, ¿q es lo q da miedo? The Ring sí q da miedo, o La maldición, ¿pero esto? Q decepción...
yes , this is my BEST and scariest horror movie ever , and yes , i've seen Thai version of "Shutter" , Alone, 4bia , or Japanese Ring , Ju-On , or Korean A Tale of Two Sisters and A LOT OF Asian horror movies , but "Kairo" still my BEST horror movie . EVER .
One of the all-time greats. The writer/director, Kurosawa Kiyoshi [no relation to Akira] is a one to watch. His other films like Cure and Moonlight Sonata, have been praised by critix, the latter given a good rating by none other > Roger Ebert himself. His film, Sakebi, aka Retribution, is... go check it out. Sayonara!
There's so many Forbidden Rooms because every person who go to the website or otherwise has an encounter with a ghost eventually makes a Forbidden Room, and then turns into a black stain, trapped between life and death, trapped by loneliness. So by the time the film ends, most of the population have become black stains.
I agree, many J- horror movies create an "atmosphere" that makes the viewer feel helpless, intimated and lonely. it`s a feeling like one is trapped alone in a dark tunnel. Hard to describe. Those Japanese directors are good!
I read somewhere that director Kiyoshi Kurosawa likes to pace his films in such a way as to draw the audience into a trance-like state. This movie definitely achieves that objective. I think it is best watched alone in a quiet, darkened room.
Overall I found it to be exhilarating, depressing, and intellectually stimulating. Not to mention incredibly creepy and affecting.
Pulse is exactly what cinema should be: a total experience.
You mean this version or the American remake with Kristen Bell? There's no doubt about it, this version! The American remake doesn't even come close. Infact, the only American remake of J-Horror movie that surpasses the original is The Ring(IMO).
if any1 can name some awesome sick scary movies to me that would be gr8:D i rarely get scared of horror movies since i seen almost all but any tips of movies from year 2000+ would be nice:D
I still have my nights where I am in bed, and jsut imagine my computer turning on automaticlally and the words appearing on the screen "Do you want to meet a ghost?"... D: This movie is the best.. BUT SCARY XD
LOL the only originals that were good was The Eye and the Grudge,- Dark Water, the Ring, annd Pulse were FAR better when they were remade. ESPECIALLY THE RING annd Dark Water. Pulse (original) was like 2 stars, with the remake at 3.5.
lol this movie doesnt scare me -.- and also the remake one =/

This movie was so good, I loved it. I just watched both Kairo and Pulse and in my opinion, Kairo is a far more superior movie.

Truño de pelicula en cuanto a terror se refiere, no da miedo en absoluto, si acaso unos 15 segundos de las casi 2 horas q dura el film. Innecesariamente lenta, no se porque la tildaron como la pelicula más terrorífica, ¿q es lo q da miedo? The Ring sí q da miedo, o La maldición, ¿pero esto? Q decepción...

One of the all-time greats. The writer/director, Kurosawa Kiyoshi [no relation to Akira] is a one to watch. His other films like Cure and Moonlight Sonata, have been praised by critix, the latter given a good rating by none other > Roger Ebert himself. His film, Sakebi, aka Retribution, is... go check it out. Sayonara!

There's so many Forbidden Rooms because every person who go to the website or otherwise has an encounter with a ghost eventually makes a Forbidden Room, and then turns into a black stain, trapped between life and death, trapped by loneliness. So by the time the film ends, most of the population have become black stains.

this movie was awesome
but i didn't get the story at all
why were there some many forbidden room's?
and at almost the end of the movie why is the whole city empty?

It's not that scary as it looks, there's just a constant feeling of fear, like, ominous- it's atmospheric.

I agree, many J- horror movies create an "atmosphere" that makes the viewer feel helpless, intimated and lonely. it`s a feeling like one is trapped alone in a dark tunnel. Hard to describe. Those Japanese directors are good!

I read somewhere that director Kiyoshi Kurosawa likes to pace his films in such a way as to draw the audience into a trance-like state. This movie definitely achieves that objective. I think it is best watched alone in a quiet, darkened room.
Overall I found it to be exhilarating, depressing, and intellectually stimulating. Not to mention incredibly creepy and affecting.
Pulse is exactly what cinema should be: a total experience.

One of the best horror movie ever made.
Philosophical, deep, and different than any other films.
One of my fav movie since Martyrs, Let The Right One In, Noriko's Dinner Table, Irreversible..

Whats better this version or the other one
GuineaGoblin 2 years ago
You mean this version or the American remake with Kristen Bell? There's no doubt about it, this version! The American remake doesn't even come close. Infact, the only American remake of J-Horror movie that surpasses the original is The Ring(IMO).

I don't even compare the Ring movies to Ringu, they completely took out the psychic element- it's totally different.

in a way the trailer is misleading - if you're expecting yet another film about ghosts or whatever killing people, look elsewhere
this is a top class movie - watch the american remake if you really want to, but it's really crap, like all the remakes

LOL the only originals that were good was The Eye and the Grudge,- Dark Water, the Ring, annd Pulse were FAR better when they were remade. ESPECIALLY THE RING annd Dark Water. Pulse (original) was like 2 stars, with the remake at 3.5.
