the Weinstein Company’s Pulse in Los Angeles.
A remake of Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s 2001 Japanese film — which is entitled Kairo and screened theatrically late last year in limited release from Magnolia — Pulse details a series of increasingly horrifying supernatural events that consume the life of Mattie Webber (Veronica Mars‘
Kristen Bell, above) after she receives an e-mail from her boyfriend
begging for help beyond the grave. Her investigation of the mysterious
e-mail leads to unexpected answers and terrifying conclusions.
The screening is scheduled for tonight, Thursday, July 27, at 9:30
p.m. at the Harmony Gold Theater, 7655 Sunset Blvd. As an added bonus, free
pizza and beer are also being served beforehand, thus necessitating the
21-year-old age requirement for all attendees. Ample parking is
available directly behind the theater and in the surrounding
residential neighborhood, but be sure to arrive early to guarantee
admittance, as seats will be doled out on a first-come, first-served
basis. Pulse releases in theaters on August 11.
