Pulse 3 (US)
Synopsis: 
The story sets in the present time when the undead from the spirit world makes into our world via telecommunication systems & TV, as in Pulse 1. It goes to shows that a tech savvy single guy named Adam uses real-time TV-webcam to communicate with her girlfriend from Cairo, Salwa. However, during one night when the spirit attack, Salwa was seen heading to the top of the building and plunge to death while telecast
live to Adam. Then, we are shown 7 years later, where all humans has fled the cities and out of touch from technologies that bring the dead to life. Then the focus is on a teenage girl called Justine who dreams of life out from the refugee camp and toward the city. When she discover a laptop that is working and communicate with a person online (Adam), who urge her to leave the camp and to the city to meet him, she decided to run-away. Along the journey, she met with many individuals such as a man who offer her place to stay but ended wanted the laptop for himself in order to bring his wife back, or another guy who manage to capture a spirit and in meeting Adam herself with dreaded consequences.  
 Review:
The plot sound nice and interesting. In fact, the beginning few minutes are truly engaging between Adam and Salwa before and during the attack. It has all the promise of a good horror movie, heck it sounds like a good sequel to the original Pulse. I was waiting for the rest of the movie to thrill me but alas! it didn't really come. In fact, it became worse and the storyline somehow spiral neither here nor there. It is as though the movie has been sucked in to the spirit world by the phantom of the movie itself. There is practically no sense of logic in-between takes like when Justine was taken prisoner by the man offering her shelter. One minute the guy was preaching her about the danger of technology, the next minute he was stealing to use the technology via laptop. Confused? There are many plot holes and the whole story does not gel well. The actress portraying Justine, Britanny Finamore is weak and unable to provide the necessary frustration of a teenager without technology, or the fear factor when encountered the spirit. In short, there is nothing worth in this movie to think of.

Verdict:

I give this a 1 star out of 5. At least its a bit better than the horrible Apocalypse of the Dead.
