Video Flashturbates Blog, Promotes Movie

It seems no one wants to see the Kristen Bell Pulse movie so the studio continues to pump out ever more odd promotional websites. Sent to us by Proximity Spain and created by, according to the Policy section, production house DeAPlaneta, a site called I Want to See A Ghost (customized Adrants version here) resembles a blog with the first post urging readers to view a video. After viewing the video, the site is taken over with Flashtastic drama incorporating your name (if it was forwarded to you by someone). The site follows an earlier effort that “attacked” a person’s computer with hundreds of IM windows.

It’s fairly freaky and an impressive use of Flash to turn the site into something other than what it’s supposed to be. After the Flashtastic drama subsides, the site then goes black, serves up more “shocking” imagery then reveals it’s a promotion for Pulse which opens in Spain February 2. It’s a nice effort. Even if the movie garnered poor reviews.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
