Swan's Japanese Horror Reviews 5: Pulse

Review of the 2001 J-horror film Pulse (Kairo), by Kiyoshi Kurosawa. This is a great piece of Japanese Horror that deals with isolation.

The official English site for Pulse where you can see the trailer and some pictures can be found at: www.pulsefilm.net Pulse was released by Magnolia Pictures, and they did a good job overall! www.magpictures.com

fuck yer man this is the best youtube series! You're just awesome! Oh and did you like the remake of one missed call? (i need to know thizs coz the one missed call review video is no longer available :(((((((((((

[rodgerswan]

never seen it to be honest haha. fans of the original japanese versions really just aren't the intended audiences for the remakes, so sometimes I think it's best to just save myself a headache and stick to the original heh.

Did you know that they made a sequel to the american remake?

[rodgerswan]

yeah, i thought i saw a dvd at best buy last week that said 'pulse 2' and i shook my head in shame heh.

[Craving4perfection]

i agree!!! pulse (the american remake) sucked sooooooo badly and the worst part is that i couldnt get my money back when it was over! and pulse two??!?!?!? id rather cut off a toe before i watch that crap lol

[jaythestingray]

And that remake sucks pretty bad

[AIMJenova]

A good majority of remakes of good Asian movies to american cinema are awful. It could just be the restrictions he US has on the content of movies and the need to peak the interest of short term attention audience from losing interest hence putting Scare scenes in every five minutes.

Awesome review Swan!

@Hijinx1982 he died? How?

[jpenny18]

@rodgerswan They made a Pulse 3 as well...I think one of them was COMPLETELY green screen. Like, they literally just shot the whole movie against a green screen and put in all the backgrounds later...I think. Well...that's what it looked like to me lol
