Pulse (2006)

In the vast world of digital communication, a brilliant hacker named Josh stumbles upon a powerful wireless signal being developed by the enigmatic Douglas Ziegler. In his exploration, he unwittingly releases a chilling force that begins to drain the life essence from humanity. This dark power swiftly triggers a horrifying epidemic of despair and self-destruction, feeding itself and growing stronger with each life it extinguishes. In the midst of this terrifying phenomenon, Mattie, a psychology student and Josh's girlfriend, witnesses their friends succumbing one by one to the relentless force. With the modern world crumbling around her, she finds an unexpected ally in Dexter. Together, they are mankind's last hope to combat this soul-crushing entity. Their only weapon? A virus carefully designed by Josh before his untimely demise. Their mission is to introduce this virus into the network, in a desperate attempt to pull the plug on the system, halt the spreading darkness, and save what remains of humanity. But in this high-stakes game of survival, the duo faces an unimaginable challenge. The invading force has made our wireless technologies their portal, our e-mails, and cell phones their gateways. This connection, once made, seems impossible to sever. And with every digital interaction, they invade, infect, and rob us of the one thing they no longer possess — life. In this chilling techno-thriller, the question remains: Can Mattie and Dexter successfully execute their plan before it's too late? Or will the sinister force continue to consume life unabated, turning our own technology against us, and plunging humanity into endless darkness? The future of mankind hangs in the balance in the gripping narrative of "Pulse."
