[Andrew Lyle Global Moderator]

the best part of this movie was the ending.. when "Matty" aka kristen bell, looks at her phone, and it has a full signal.. so they drive no more then 15 meters, and there is no signal.. YA RIGHT..

It's watchable, but I wouldn't pay money to watch it, only if it's free on TV or something.

Only real highlight was Brad Dourif in the diner.

Brad Dourif = Chucky from the Chucky movies.

[Shuu]

it's a pg-13 remake... you can't expect much.

EDIT: damnit... i've got to start reading the dates on these posts....

I haven't seen this movie, but is it worse than Hostel?

Nothing can be worse then Hostel :pinch:

I didn't think it was anywhere near as bad as some of you are claiming (I'd give it a 2/5 or 1.5/5 because it has a few redeeming qualities), but it's definitely not a good movie.

was a horrible horror movie. the only thing i thought was neat, was at the very beginning, if you look at the numbers on the guys door, they equal up to 23 if you add them or multiply, its something odd though.

I came in here expecting you to be talking about the Pink Floyd concert DVD "Pulse". I had no idea there was an actual movie named Pulse too.

Even the english cover/poster art of Kairo is more frightening than that horrible none-remake.

Kiyoshi Kurosawa is amazing. Anyone interested should check out Kyua (Cure) - That's one of my favorite films.

I love how subtle and sad he is... Reminds me of Hitchcock at his best and Bergman's Persona.

OK now this is funny...

I watched the original (Kairo) some years ago, and then some years later I saw that someone's shooting a remake, so I thought "ok let's check the trailer and see what it looks like".

TBH it looked like the typical horror movie for teenagers, but now is when we get to the funny part: look at what I've found in the trailer:

Looks familiar? Yes, that's part of a sequence from Kairo, and it's in the Pulse trailer!! :rofl:

You can check it yourselves here (near 02:20): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu8OLBcyEQk...ted&search=

I didn't actually realize it was from the original until I watched Pulse and saw that the new airplane sequence is quite different (and nowhere nearly as well made as the original).
