Pulse (2001) VS Pulse (2006)

In a cautionary tale to podcasters everywhere, the hosts of Don't Encourage Us survive just long enough to review the depressing 2001 Japanese horror film Pulse, directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa, along with the 2006 American PG-13 remake, and the two direct-to-DVD sequels. They discuss the differences among the films, including the changes in tone, message, and target audience, and then make unhelpful recommendations as to who should watch these movies, all while our hosts gradually fade into ash. Enjoy!
