Japanese director Kiyoshi Kurosawa, who solidified his standing in the horror genre with films like "Sweet Home" and "Cure," has long been a popular figure in the Western world. His 2001 masterpiece, "Pulse" (also known as "Kairo"), was previously acquired by Hollywood for a remake, resulting in the English-language film also titled "Pulse," which later spawned two sequels. Now, more than a decade later, "Pulse" is once again in Hollywood's sights, with a new reboot reportedly in the works.
