Pulse 3: The Invasion
Regie Joel Soisson
- jackmeat27. September 2025My quick rating - 3.7/10. Judging by how crappy the second one was, I am sure this will be fine for viewing while I am working. If you need background noise as well, click the poster below, or you can catch it on TubiTV. I have to just assume this is the last we will hear from this trilogy. Admittedly, this one was better than the previous sequel, but it still suffers from the same problems. The horrendous use of CGI backgrounds for scenes is still rampant in this flick, which is so distracting. You really won't realize how annoying it is until you see it so blatantly used for no apparent reason. At least this time, they decided to develop a story around two of those who were affected by the initial flix story. Here we have Justine (Brittany Renee Finamore), who is living with her foster parents and just yearns to escape the technological void world she lives in and make contact with some guy whom you meet in the opening that has survived the "pandemic" and wishes to meet up to save her from her boring life. I personally found the whole thing, making fun of people on AOL, meeting in chat rooms, and believing who the person on the other end actually was, but this slowly turns into seeming like the dude on the other end is a pedophile. Not sure what they were actually nagging at, but it doesn't much matter to the story. She ventures off on her adventure to the city, which they name Houston, on foot. From where? No idea. What this movie and the sequel do not address is how in the world, after most of the population has been wiped out, there is a magical wifi network that still exists. There isn't really any power to speak of outside from personally generated, so who knows? But again, this is more about trying to meet up with this guy, Adam, for reasons only known to her maturity. The jump scares are in limited amounts, and the whole movie plods along to an even more implausible ending. The ghosts aren't focused on enough and do not appear that often, but for one scene that really does give a good jolt. The time she spends with the preacher along the way is by far the highlight here. If you made it this far, you may as well watch, but it is only marginally better than the last.

Einige Jahre nachdem eine durch über das Internet agierende Geister ausgelöste Suizidwelle einen großen Teil der Menschheit ausgelöscht hat, lebt Teenager Justine (Brittany Renee Finamore), deren Eltern in der Geisterwelt weilen, nun bei einer Pflegefamilie in einem abgelegenen Flüchtlingslager. Sämtliche Segnungen moderner Technik, die Elektronik beinhaltet, wurden verbannt, um den Kontakt mit den tödlichen Geistern zu vermeiden. Doch dann findet Justine einen alten Computer, mit dessen Hilfe sie sich auf einen Chat mit einem gewissen Adam (Rider Strong) einlässt. Der vermittelt ihr den Eindruck des Verständnisses und weckt in ihr die Sehnsucht, aus ihrem isolierten Leben auszubrechen. Adam wohnt allerdings in der von den Phantomen beherrschten Stadt und fordert sie auf, ihn dort zu besuchen. Das Verlangen ist stärker als die Furcht, und so begibt sie sich ausgerechnet an den Ort des Ursprungs von allem Unheil...
