Pulse is a 2006 American techno-horror film directed by Jim Sonzero from a screenplay co-written by Wes Craven, and starring Kristen Bell, Ian Somerhalder and Christina Milian. It is an English-language adaptation of Kiyoshi Kurosawa's 2001 Japanese film of the same name.

The film was released by Dimension Films on August 11, 2006. It received generally negative reviews, with more critics considering it inferior to its source material. It spawned two straight-to-DVD sequels: Pulse 2: Afterlife and Pulse 3, both released in 2008.
