Pulse (1988, USA) C-95m. *** D: Paul Golding. Starring Cliff De Young, Roxanne Hart, Joey Lawrence, Matthew Lawrence, Charles Tyner. Underrated horror thriller about boy Lawrence, who comes to visit his divorced Dad in his new suburban home (with new flame Hart) and goes to realize that the neighbor across the street may have been killed by an energy pulse, something that made his appliances evil. Will their house be next? Not very logical or gory (it's rated PG-13), but special effects are terrific and direction showcases them approriately. Hard to believe this was writer-director Golding's only feature as he includes some intelligent references to key films.
