A lot better than ratings might suggest.

Every so often comes an offbeat movie that begs to be seen over and over again, which is now possible because of cable and satellite.  "Pulse" is such a movie.  Don't over analyze it.  Just get a lot of popcorn and whatever and sit forward on your seat, grip the arms of your chair, and immerse yourself in it.  If you're looking for more of the same, similar feelings without it being a slasher movie (yuck!), add "Final Destination" to your viewing evening, another 10 in my book....  Of course, I'm talking about a different standard than great drama, I'm talking about a movie that makes you grip your seat and exclaim "Holy S..t!"....

score 10/10
