This week the topic of discussion is Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Pulse (2001, AKA Kairo), a movie that is equal parts about a ghost apocalypse and depression.

Show notes:
The red tape in Pulse is unique to the movie, though it has been copied later.
Wes Craven did in fact co-write the Pulse remake.
Kurosawa's film Loft is from 2005, not later.

Next week's movie: Ugetsu (1953)
