Pulse 3

This seems to be one of those sequels that got shot back-to-back with another. And like strangely so often enough, this sequel turned out much better than the other one actually.

This time it actually does follow a decent story, that offers some tension and mystery as well. It's the last part of the trilogy and I don't think any other sequels will come, since the story got pretty much closed. And it's not like this is a profitable enough franchise for the studios to cash in on anyway.

It also probably is the least confusing movie out of the trilogy. It's pretty much being straight-forward and it doesn't spend too much time lingering, or trying to give the story multiple layers and deeper meanings to it all. It makes this the most pleasant one to watch out of the entire trilogy, as well. The movie keeps flowing well at all time and manages to remain interesting throughout, though it still perhaps falls kind of flat toward the end.

Its effects also work out better in this one. It actually all serves a purpose and I can also say that this movie works out better as an horror as well. Not that the horror fans or anyone else will go crazy about this movie but it just happens to be so that it's all being a positive improvement over the previous sequel.

Unlike the second movie, this movie pretty much follows the events of the previous movie. It of course helped that both movies got shot back-to-back. It pretty much continues on the same story and follows some of the same characters but also introduces some new ones. These are all good things for this movie.

Simply a good and watchable third and final(?) installment.

What it gains in a slight improvement in style & execution over its predecessors, it loses by continuing the trilogy's tradition of a confounding script with boring dialogue, dim-witted performances, cheap VFX, & mundane direction.

Here we go again with PULSE. Now we have more ridiculous crap to watch. The first PULSE was good, the second was garbage, but this one takes the cake.

Much like PULSE 2, the acting was wooden, the story was extremely weak, the effects are lazy and green screen shots. But this time, they really made this series suck. The characters are now total idiots, and the story can't stay consistent.

Now the PULSE series is dead, THANK YOU DIMENSION FILMS. You guys took a decent horror movie and turned it into a shitty trilogy.

Never see this movie. It is utter garbage. It's even worse than PULSE 2.

1/10

Whoever did this: quit cinema. It's not interesting on any level. It even makes me doubt which film is worse: the previous or this one.

PULSE 3 is the awful final chapter in the awful PULSE trilogy. The original PULSE was an effective lo-fi Japanese ghost story while the American remake was a sub-standard rip-off. However, PULSE 2 was even worse; an entirely dumb slice of semi-horror in which everything in the film was CGI-ed, even the backdrops.

Unfortunately PULSE 3 is much like the previous film and just as appalling. Once again ghosts inhabit the world like a disease, appearing through wireless Internet and other digital communications. There's a story of some sorts about a girl trying to track down her boyfriend, but overall this is a mess: messy characters you don't care about, messier effects, and an entire lack of incident. The whole film looks unrealistic and that's not just the ghosts. There's a stand-out scare sequence involving a woman blowing her head off which obviously wants to be as terrifying as that TV set-piece in THE RING, but it doesn't even come close. PULSE 3 is junk, and as near-unwatchable as a film can get.
