About It traps you in your house...Then pulls the Plug.
Starring Cliff De Young, Roxanne Hart, Joseph Lawrence
Directed By Paul Golding
Written By Paul Golding
SONG: "Everybody Wants to Rule the World"
by Tears for Fears (1985)
Plot Outline A malevolent, paranormal intelligence in the electrical system is moving from house to house. It terrorizes the occupants by taking control of the appliances, either killing them or causing them to wreck the house in an effort to destroy it. Then it travels along the power lines to the next house, and the terror restarts. Having thus wrecked one household in a quiet neighborhood, the pulse finds itself in the home of a boy's divorced father whom he is visiting. It gradually takes control of everything, badly injures the stepmother, and traps father and son, who must fight their way out.

A forgotten film. Good music, very period-correct.
I agree. And thank you!
Someone should do a remake of this film and call it "Voice in the Wires" or something instead of Pulse since other movies have taken it, it has an awesome premise and while I love the original nobody remembers it.
It would make more sense with today's technology (Computers, cell phones, WiFi, smart home tech, etc.) the "Pulse" could essentially exist not only on the wires but in the airwaves as well and "anything with ears to hear it" would include all the wireless toys we use everyday. Everything from your smartphone exploding its battery in your pocket burning you or setting you on fire while driving, or your kids toy drone attacking you and cutting you up. The potential is there just someone needs to take on the challenge of a remake.
With today's CGI and real world technology basis embedded in all our thoughts and everyday lives now, a remake of this movie would cause people to second think buying "The next best thing".
Another good movie to remake would be "The Day After" - Not the snow storm one but the nuclear war movie from the 80's.
I would love to see a remake, however, today's morons already have fried brains, and do we have enough intelligent people remaining in the world to properly tell the story? And then, it would probably get dangerously close to some compelling conspiracy theories and might get censored. They need to do some movie about those mysterious "smart" meters that strangely suddenly need to be located within 50 feet of where most everybody sleeps, or the world will supposedly end horribly, or so the control-freak enviro-wackos seem to think?
I doubt that toy drones have enough power or intelligence to attack you, however, those smart meters have way too much power, if there is found to be some sinister evil plot pushing them.
Would cause people to think twice before buying "the next best thing"? Oops. There went the advertising budget. How did they get away with the first "Pulse"? Already it makes me think twice about having a garbage disposal. Do you want to deal with repairing the thing, when it gets jammed? What could possibly go wrong? Electricity and water in the same appliance. At least a washing machine can be loaded onto a hand truck and carried out of the house, without having to do a major plumbing job just to disconnect it.
ElfNet Gaming no, it would just end up being an anti cell phone and anti internet propaganda film. Just re release the original
Yosef MacGruber what the hell are you even talking about? Sounds like you're the one with the fried brain conspiracy theory
Sorry this is late, but thank you for the compliments on the video! It was a great honor to meet Paul. This movie changed my life before it even began. I agree with your thoughts on the movie. For me, the music, sound design, and visual effects were and still are quite stunning.

Hi, I agree & I far prefer the cinematic visual effects, imagery, & techniques to today's CGI & digital motion cameras.
The Cinematic Style, the sound design, & the visuals are all beautifully sinister & fun & timeless.
I couldn’t agree more. Movie probably has a lot with who I am today lol. I was obsessed with it back in the late 80s to early 90s. Told my mom I didn’t know the name of it but she found and recorded it off HBO for me. I watched it tirelessly. Didn’t really scare me, but I was just fascinated with the electrical substations and whatnot. I used to go checkout the electrical substation by my house, and search for them in general after this.
The power plant at the beginning is the Intermountain Generating Station located just north-east of of Delta, Utah. Despite being out of state, it is partially operated by Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and sends electricity to Southern California though the Path 27 High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission line which runs to the Adelanto static inverter plant where the high voltage DC is inverted into AC before continuing over the San Gabriel mountains to Los Angeles.
ɷ I Havee Watched Thisss Movieeee Leakedd Versionnn Hereeee : - t.co/e6QlTccFx6
Thank you for this. The one image at the beginning of the film is what I believe was supposed to portray surveillance footage of the thyristors at an AC/DC interconnect. Never knew what this plant was but interesting to know what it is after all these years.
I always would look up at a transformer near my parents house after seeing this film ...... top 5 80's songs in my book 80's fan for eternity I have the 80's pulse in my blood for eternity!!!
OMG, Thank you for posting this. I literally just asked Yahoo for the name of this movie. I KNEW it was called Pulse but everytime i searched for it i got the latest movie and the japanese version of the latest movie.Mega lame.
That's a good explanation.
Aliens! is the only explanation i got for the "Force" that moved through the power grid. Same can also go for Maximum Overdrive.
Stephen King's MaximuM Overdrive - Evil's Wheels, is just ridiculous as I recall. It has been a long time since I watched it, but I have the DVD, hence the more detailed listing of the movie's name. At least Pulse tries to be at least a little plausible. In Pulse, it is obviously not aliens, well unless you think that electricity is a mysterious "alien"?
The thing with the TV shining a beam of light onto the boy's face, suggest that electricity is studying the human, and perhaps not so much understanding nor accepting the alien entity that is called "human". Although that scene is about the most fake-looking scene in the movie.
That scene with the solder melting and flowing to change the circuitry of the TV such that it would no longer turn off, that was just amazingly creepy. During power outages, I go and turn off the surge suppressor switches, because the power-on surge is supposedly not very kind to your sensitive electronics.
i wonder what the amish were feeling when this came out?
Where can I watch this movie ❓❓
Not bad, but I would have used "Burning Down the House"
justin castillo - thank you for your opinion, but the tone and emotion of that song don’t speak to me in the same way the song I chose does in regards to how this picture moves. I wanted something that felt right with the visuals and timed well and this just happened to work. I wish I could redo it and choose other better scenes to include and have better picture quality but at the time this was all the material I had to work with and I was new to editing.
Thanks for watching!
Why Tears for Fears?!
Why not??
@@delcabone because it is ill-fitting.
@@royfontaine5526 - In more than 10 years - and 15k+ views (including the previous original upload and the festival it was played at) you’re the only person to ever make that comment about it. (The film Director himself was quite pleased with this.)
I’m genuinely curious to know - what do you think would be the correct song choice, since you obviously have a different feeling than everybody else thus far?
*I appreciate everyone’s opinion and like being given the opportunity to be exposed to something different - in case it might lead to more creativity. I am not insulted by or angry about your opposing opinion...quite the contrary, actually.
@@ddotcdot6892 because it’s far too upbeat for a fairly creepy film. I love both the film and the song btw.
@@royfontaine5526 - I think you missed the whole point of this particular video, no offense.
