What happens

Pulse is a 2006 American techno-horror film directed by Jim Sonzero, written by Sonzero and Wes Craven, and starring Kristen Bell, Ian Somerhalder and Christina Milian. It is an English-language adaptation of the 2001 Japanese film. The film was released on August 11, 2006 by Dimension Films. Despite being a moderate success, grossing $30 million on a $20.5 million budget, it was poorly reviewed by critics, who deemed it inferior to the original. The film spawned two direct-to-video sequels, Pulse 2: Afterlife and Pulse 3, both released in 2008. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
