Center
Primary
The film explores themes of technological alienation and the breakdown of human connection through a supernatural horror narrative. Its critique of modern society's reliance on technology is presented as a general societal observation rather than an explicit promotion of any specific political ideology, leading to a neutral rating.
The movie features visible diversity within its supporting cast, though its primary protagonists are white. The narrative focuses on a supernatural horror theme, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering DEI themes.
Secondary
The 2006 film "Pulse" is an American remake of the 2001 Japanese film "Kairo." The original Japanese characters, canonically established as East Asian, are portrayed by actors of different races (e.g., white, Black, Hispanic) in the remake.
The horror film 'Pulse' does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its narrative. The story primarily explores the dangers of technology and supernatural phenomena, with no elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 2006 film "Pulse" is a remake of the 2001 Japanese film "Kairo." A review of the main characters in both versions indicates that no significant character's gender was changed between the original and the adaptation.
