About

Pulse is a terrifying jolt of techno-paranoia from auteur Kiyoshi Kurosawa. When plant shop employee Taguchi suddenly commits suicide, his friends and colleagues become haunted by ghostly images transmitted through the internet. Soon, more people across Tokyo seem to be disappearing without a trace, as even greater numbers of malevolent cyber apparitions begin to spread. A haunting treatise on loneliness and the existential quandaries posed by the then-burgeoning power of the internet, Kurosawa's film is a prescient and at times shocking slice of twenty-first century horror.
