A vision of the apocalypse where civilization ends not by atomic destruction but atomism: people retreating into themselves. To Donnie Darko's "Everybody dies alone," Pulse counters that, hey, everybody lives alone, too, & insofar that loneliness is an invariable aspect of human experience, dead or alive, what's the difference between the two? "Do you want to meet a ghost?" Turns out we're all ghosts; the Internet, promising connection & belonging, only clarifies our essential loneliness.

Maybe the scariest movie I've ever seen. Very unique and creepy-looking ghosts. Also, I felt it had the kind of depth that the original Godzilla did, considering the social changes Japan has undergone in the last several decades; it seemed like a big allegory for hikikomori, the declining birth rates, etc., and, of course, with this WWII shadow hanging over it.

Interesting. Quite an enigmatic, eerie number with a variety of themes and no firm explanation for what is going on (confession - I quite like things being left ambiguous) . There was some solid camerawork, doing a good job of capturing the increasingly decayed locations in washed-out colour. I found it creepy and unsettling, like something was always going to emerge from the shadows, and it occupied my head for some time after it had finished. Fans of the better-known J-horrors might like this.

Recommended for two amazing drawn out takes involving ladies, one on her way out and one on her way back in. A jump from a ledge that never looks away for the former, I don't know how they filmed it. The latter's shot is patient enough to let itself become terrifying the longer it goes on, sort of like my dietary history.

I thought this was quite a bit better than the typical J-horror flick. The incomprehensibilty associated with the genre was not as bad as it usually is, I feel like I've got a pretty good grasp on what happened. I liked the end-of-the-world business too, that was a fresh twist on the standard fare. I also appreciated the themes of isolation and loneliness. It was a little on the slow side, and there weren't as many as jumpy-scary parts as, say, Ju-On, but otherwise I approve.

It might be easy to dismiss this film over platitudes about how the internet has turned us into the walking dead, but it does altogether feel more significant than that. On loneliness and suicide, and how interiorized existential threats turn into social malady in a connected world. The imagery here just absolutely fucks me up. This is one of the most terrifying films I've ever seen.

this prescient dive into the ontology of the internet age remains the most hauntingly, oppressively shot 21st century film this side of lynch, drawing a line between hiroshima and facebook in mapping the relationship between our new digital structures and those huge, dehumanising totems of industrialisation looming abandoned in the backdrop (hitch and antonioni abound). that THIS ending is seemingly a happy one says a lot about the horror with which kurosawa regards the collective modern psyche.

Concerns the relationship between the feeling of being alone in the world and the feeling of not existing, seeing these as originating from our mortal condition, but where this mortality is always already a technical condition, and, today, consists in a process of disappearance into networks of spectral images, networks operating via electronic circuits that short-circuit psychosocial circuits, inducing suicidal behaviour not just individually but collectively, that is, apocalyptically.

Vague plot, slow pacing, strange musings on the concepts of loneliness and isolation in the digital age; it's all rather boring. But I'll admit, the idea of the apocalypse coming about through ghosts simply making everyone slowly vanish is a very interesting concept that could have been milked for many more scares and an eerier atmosphere than this film does it.

So much melancholy, so much dread towards certain loneliness -- which means death -- that we the only thing characters can do is just sit and silently scream or cry, waiting to become a blur on the wall or a ghost lingering in haunted computers. Tokyo as a wasteland of souls with nowhere to go but our realm, because the dead land is just packed. And then the final characters get on a ship to Latin America -- oh, boy, here is hell too! Just neat, precise, absorbing existential horror.

Top badass moment? The sound of a modem. In the future, it'll be people like me who can answer that question in the "what sound is it?" round in pub quizzes. The young from their 'always on' world won't know it; and all old people despise technology because it reminds them of trying to programme video recorders, so they won't know it either. So this film, well it wasn't that great; some black smudges and trousers that look like baggy long johns. No cats, chainsaws or decapitations.

Kurosawa manipulates J-horror cliches to serve his own unique vision of a technologically induced apocalypse. The visuals have a thick hazy sheen that's borderline impenetrable, as if the film was shot through a foggy glass pane. K.K creates an unsettling atmosphere in dark murky environments by obscuring objects in the frame to heighten the tension and mystery. The pace is a tad leisurely, but K.K's depiction of future alienation is unusually low key and spare with tense abstract moments.

Not sure why I waited so long to watch this. Basically two films in one: a horror story which evolves into apocalyptic sci-fi. It shares imagery and themes with J-Horror films, but it's more ambitious and requires your attention. It's also not as clearly crafted as e.g. Nakata's films, and characters mainly seem to serve the concept. Some scenes feel amateurish while others ooze with atmosphere. Technology already looks outdated, but the themes of loneliness and detachment are still valid.

Uses a creepy enigmatic ghost story as a framing device for an exploration the isolating effect of the modern world, and it's effective in creating a disconcerting mood. The characterizations are really good and the air of mystery meshes very well with the film's themes as the characters alternately come together and distance themselves. Eventually, though, the film is more interested in furthering the ghost story than developing its themes, which is fine, but not what I would have preferred.

Pulse gets better as it goes along, slowly expanding its premise until presumably all of Tokyo is afflicted with, umm, uh, whatever it is that's actually happening. I'm still not sure. I feel like this is a movie that's terrifying only to those who know nothing about the internet. But even if you're not sold on the story, and even if the characterization is subpar, its survival horror feel and apocalyptic gloom gives it a lot of flavor.

Agree with most viewers that opening 1/2 hour is quite good. Also has a bit of 2001 premonition right at the end, so maybe Kurosawa was communicating with the dead while making the film, and that lets me give the film an 88 for visual design. Pretty hard to see what's going on when watching on Netflix.

A pretty ambitious use of the traditional J-horror toolbox, spinning itself out into a disaster film by way of extended metaphysical monologues. And as unlikely as that sounds, it certainly gives it more weight than your average horror film, and it's shot quite well in places. Bonus points for mind-numbingly accurate depictions of Windows 95 usage (a never-ending dial-up service installer? count me in!), and the most unsubtle atomic bombing reference in Japanese film I've seen yet.

This one's strengths are definitely clustered into its first act, while the second and third are a lot messier. But that first act is some of the most nightmare-inducing (or nightmare-recalling, rather) stuff I've seen in a film. The shadow people... and I'm a sucker for themes of isolation and loneliness (and here it resonates with particularly Japanese subtext like post-WWII anxieties and hikkikomorism in the age of the internet). The way apocalypse was brought about was bizarre and unique.

Pretty effect stuff! For a film that’s deliberately paced, I was very entertained. There’s something really unsettling and fascinating about Kurosawa’s atmosphere and use of liminal spaces. I was surprised the movie was as layer/deep as it is, and the concept was executed way better than any ‘internet horror’ movie should be. It thankfully has some fairly memorable characters and performances as well. A creepy film that perfectly showcases the depression and loneliness that was/is the internet.

The movie feels like missed opportunities to me, as the start and the ghosts were the good kind of creepy, and an interesting take on the lore. The slow creeping worked very well. The visuals seem really creepy too. But then it turns into a story about loneliness and existential dread, and it is slow and not horror anymore to me. It is just philosophy while running around town, and it ends without explanations but one sort of cares less about this world anyway

I guess this is trying to say something about the Internet and loneliness and... (sigh) "existentialism", but... is it really? It has a neat, gritty, low budget, minimalistic feel to it that feels intentional. It's technically competent and manages to steward a couple of genuinely creepy moments. The problem is weakly developed characters and a narrative that doesn't unfold in a way that's remotely compelling. And that ending. Oh my goodness. THAT ENDING. Tonally jarring to the point of mirth.

The cinematography was probably the biggest highlight for me, with haunting visuals aplenty & a lot of really cool shots that convey the dull, dreary vibe of the overall story quite well. The gradual loss of bright colors was neat, too. But the story is...well, it's really incoherent & it borders on pretentious & I just didn't care for it. The characters had nothing to them, & the pacing dragged horribly. So many threads just got dropped randomly. This will work for many, but not so much for me.

Ryosuke is the original himbo and I wont be taking any other questions at this time. Pulse has expertly crafted horror scenes with existential dread about the loneliness of technology and death. So perfect to watch alone, at 2am, during a pandemic. Sadly Pulse's plot takes an interesting risk, by splitting up into 2 stories, it underdevlops its great ideas and has a cast of characters that are basically cut with the same cookie cutter, and who I confused with each other multiple times.

As M_A said, it's not frightening after the first 30 minutes, which is a shame because there is some genuinely creepy imagery on display and it feels like it's building at that point. It only leads into a drama, perhaps horror-tinged but that's only because there are ghosts (ghosts don't automatically mean scary). But even the reflective nature of the drama isn't compelling, and by the time the (spoilers) apocalypse starts it's too late, and then it ends. Cool ending but a slog to get there.

Interesting themes of loneliness and isolation, and some creepy scenes, but most of the plot mechanics felt really random and inconsistent. It was stupid characters that really got to me, though. No, actually, literally stupid. The main guy processes thought at the speed of chilled butter, if at all, usually only uttering, "what? ... huh? ... duh ..." or the japanese equivalents. His mouth never closes, rather is in a perpetual vacant, half-opened state. The girls were only a bit better.

Kiyoshi Kurosawa is a good director, however after having first seen a few of his non-genre films, the added horror elements here can't help but seem rather superfluous and heavy-handed when he's essentially tackling the exact same themes of technological and urban alienation as he always does. Like always, he's not much for plotting, so it's basically just a philosophical meditation on loneliness and the internet with some clumsy supernatural stuff thrown in.

An incoherent torrent of postmodern masturbation that presents us with an important question: "Do you want to meet a ghost?" The answer of course involves pulling the rug from under your own feet and exclaiming "YOU ALREADY HAVE!" while staring at a mirror. It's also possible that you're the ghost--a good way to check is to see if, on occasion, you transform into a black stain on a wall and shatter into a million ghost particles.

The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous - this is a scary horror film where nine tenths of what happens happens in broad daylight giving the film a slightly spiritual edge. And the scares really do deliver with the film teasing you and being tense and captivating throughout. The film does proceed to lose its way more and more as it goes on but the ambition is very satisfying. Pulse is frightening, beautiful and a bit shoddy all at the same time.

The protagonists start seeing ghosts in computers and people killing themselves. As the ghost sightings increase, people begin to succumb to the despair or...disintegrate into ash. This film is slllooooowwww. With that being said, you do get a great sense of dread and hopelessness that never lets up. The CGI doesn't hold up at all, but a few scenes do work pretty well.

Neat idea, some truly creepy moments, a bit slow though, it could have used a little more action.

terribly effective...watch it alone, in middle of the night, and you will not look at your computer in the same way any more ...

Eh... you've seen one of these modern Japanese horror movies, you've seen em all. If you really have to see one, better Ringu than Kairo.
