Pulse 2

I have never seen a movie like this one. I really do like horrors of any kind, but after seeing this movie I thought that I wasted one and a half hour from my life. First of all, I would like to mention that I enjoyed the first Pulse movie, and that's the only reason why I watched the second too. In contrast with the first one - which got a good story, some mysterious scenes and great effects -, the second is about some phantom women, who died, but they came back to life for some personal revenge. I always watch the IMDb's votes for a movie, and I think that barely all the votes were objective and understandable. Than how could this movie got 3.9 votes? In my opinion even the 1 point is too much for this production. Sorry, to say this, but don't watch it!
