saw the new terror-flick "Pulse" which unnerved both of us with its apocalyptic prediction of mankind's fascination with technology - especially that of 'cell phone' and this new 'wifi' technology, which according to this movie, will end with the eradication of civilization as we know it. humanity to be hunted down and eaten (kind of) by wraithlike being from another frequency - our loved ones transformed into cold shades of the people they were... The movie is based on the Japanese horror movie "Kairo," and centers on a group of college students who discover that a computer hacker friend of theirs unwittingly pirated a strange wireless signal that opened a doorway for a terrifying evil to cross over into the world.

A strange call from a friend of Eli's sister at 1am when this friend did not show up at home. I was worried as well and suggested a few places to try.
