Makes you think it really might be time to "pull the plug". May be a little intense for younger kids.

The film keeps you at the edge of your seat. If you've never seen it, you'll like it. Just the thought of an intelligent Alien life form manipulating, tapping into circuitry and recking havoc, is disturbing enough. Pretty cool sci-fi 80's movie. Definetely an eirie one.

The movie was pretty good overall, but some of the scenes didn't make sense. Like the scene where the boy is in the garage and the "pulse" splits the gas pipe and jams the motor of the garage door opener. If the thing only moves through the electrical wires, then how did it get into the gas line? Also the door to the kitchen was mysteriously locked. The shower scene is also far fetched. I understand how the pulse could make the water heater kick on, but thats it! How could it increase the water pressure, make the water scalding hot, jam the nozzle so the water couldn't shut off, and jam the shower door? It's all bacially bad luck.

Its a shame this video isn't out on DVD yet. My VHS copy is slowly deteriorating. But anywho, I first saw this film in kingergarten (yeah haha), and to this day, still love it. Its basically about an almost supernatural "pulse" that invades homes and turns every electrical appliance into a weapon under its control. I won't spoil anything, you'll have to see it for yourself. I certainly enjoyed it.

This was a very entertaining thriller and should definatly be released on DVD. It's somewhat similar to "Maximum Overdrive" but it only involves electrical home appliances, no trucks. It's about a demon or some evil spiritual force that travels through the wires and wrecks havoc on a cluster of houses in a small Arizona suburb. Moving from house to house it is now haunting the home of a young boy (Joey Lawerence), his father (Cliff De Young), and step-mother (Roxanne Hart). The young boy is just visiting for the summer and is told that the man that lived across the street went crazy and destroyed all of the appliances before being electrocuted to death. Trying to find out more about what happened, the boy talks to another kid in the area while skate-boarding and is told that the man went crazy because his wife was killed in an accident with a malfunctioning garbage disposal. The boy also meets an old man in the boarded-up house who tells him there is a "voice in the wires" that is causing home appliances to malfunction and hurt people. The boy then becomes parinoid and wants to get the heck out of the doomed suburb. But it's already too late, for the pulse has already began to take over their home. It's in the garbage disposal, television, water heater, furnace, power tools, etc. basically anything that plugs in. The force is growing and becoming stronger by the minute as it begins it's campangue of terror on the innocent household. The scene where the step-mother (Roxanne Hart) almost dies in the shower from the scalding water is disturbing. As well as the broken glass, garbage disposal, and power-saw scenes. Watch it if you dare!
