Human panic

The last picture of PULSE is a large urban ghost area. After watching it, I think of urban panic, the panic of the current civilization, not the fear of ghosts. The most impressive words in the play are that they invade our bodies and only Remaining the body, sucking all our vitality, all our happiness, we lose our strength, and finally the whole body turns black, turns into ashes and disappears... The description of the ghost virus is very similar to the dementor's feeding scene .PULSE's script comes from Japan, Japan's ghost movies are famous, The Grudge, The Midnight Bell...I think those who haven't seen it have at least heard it. Create a scary atmosphere, sound, color, flashing light, Those fears come from people's hearts and from the unknown. The fear in PULSE grafts the traditional ghost fear on the current civilization. It is the fear of the Internet, the fear of mobile phones, and the fear of all kinds of things that are transmitted through radio waves. Watching your friends in Died in front of me, watching the ghost appear next to my voice, I searched for the reason in fear. In the end, all my efforts failed to resist the appearance of the ghost realm. In the end, I could only escape to a safe place - a place without radio waves. Bell invented the telephone, von Neumann established the structure of the computer, and electrical engineer Presper Eckert and physicist Dr. John Mauchler made the computer a reality. In today's life, we are accustomed to the Internet, How will we live without the Internet, how many people are we used to contact by mobile phones, and how many letters do we exchange? If we lose these, what will we have in our lives? Maybe this film reminds us to return? We have lost clear thinking , loses his mind, becomes a walking dead on the Internet, and is numb in the ghost realm.

What is the greatest fear in human nature? Losing oneself?

Pulse quotes

  • Mattie Webber: [to Dexter] That computer belonged to someone I know. You found his computer. Now you're messing with the people in his address book? That's a really shitty thing to do.

  • Mattie Webber: Just like Josh said, he pulled something through...

    Dexter McCarthy: Pulled ghosts through the Wi-Fi? I just doesn't make any sense.

    Thin Bookish Guy: [adding to their conversation] It makes all the sense in the world. Do you have any idea of the amount of data that's floating out there? The amount of information we just beam into the air? We broadcast to everyone where we are, and we think we're safe? The whole freakin' city is going insane, and we're acting like it's nothing. Well, it's not nothing. It's something we don't understand, and it is coming for us.

    Goth Girl: You're freaking us out, man.

    Thin Bookish Guy: It's the end of the world. That's what it is.

    Goth Girl: Maybe it's the booze in your coffee.
