Overview
フランクは婚約者のゾーイと共同でラザロという名前の血清の開発を行っていた。ラザロは昏睡状態にある患者の治療のための薬品として認知されていたが、実際のところは死者を蘇らせるための血清であった。 友人でもあるニコ、クレイ、エヴァの協力の下、2人は死んだばかりの犬を蘇生させることに成功する。しかし、犬は生前には見せなかった動きをし始める。目から生気が失われ、食欲も喪失してしまったのである。それどころか何らかの特殊能力を取得しているようであった。検査の結果、ラザロ血清が犬の脳内に新しいシナプス回路を形成したことが判明した。 2人の極秘研究の存在を知った学部長はその中止を命令してきた。しかも、2人の研究に出資していた企業が大手製薬会社に買収されたせいで、2人は研究成果をその会社に奪われてしまった。 実験の成果を奪い返すべく、フランクたちは研究室に忍び込んだ。しかしこの危険な試みの最中、事故が起こりゾーイが感電死してしまった。ゾーイを死なせたくないという一心で、フランクはラザロ血清を彼女に投与する。ゾーイは無事生き返ったように見えたが、フランクは何かがおかしいと思い始める。ゾーイは「自分が死にかけたとき、私は地獄の景色を見た」と主張する。

Well, it's not terribly original with some obvious connections with Frankenstein and other horror films of that type but I enjoyed it overall. It was quite scary in places and even though the scares were quite contrived for the most part, it did make me jump at times. The special effects were quite well done but could have been expanded a bit more. I gave it 3 1/2 stars.
**The stimulated brain terrorising!** Actually, this film was made before 'Lucy', but released after that. So I first saw that and now this. Basically, these two films are similar thematic, except the genres are different. I liked Scarlett's film, a very much enjoyable. This film too looked nice, and watching it after that makes to understand it better. I meant scientifically, rather than a supernatural way. So what's extra in this was the usual horror film style jumpy scenes, with loud and sudden sounds. Limited cast, and one day event based film. Not a bad writing or the direction and performances. The settings were perfect, and the film did not require strong graphics. The story followed a small medical researcher team who is working on a serum that brings the dead back to life. When their entire work was ceased by the company they were working for, they decide to recreate everything to prove its theirs. Then something goes wrong, following a series of destruction before it all ends. Like I said, it was more a science-fictional thriller than your regular horror film. But it borrowed the same style to present on the screen. The events are simple to understand, except that scientific thing. Because there won't be any difference for those who are weak in basic science. It'll be another normal boring horror flick. For me, it's an average film, watchable for once being short and well paced narration. _6/10_
**The Lazarus Effect showed some promise but couldn’t decide what to do once the horror began.** The Lazarus Effect had a decent premise - scientists attempting to discover a method to resurrect the recently deceased are forced to test their new experimental treatment on one of their team after she dies in an accident. Only she doesn’t come back the same. She returns sinister, malevolent, and murderous. That concept with a production company like Blumhouse and a cast boasting Olivia Wilde, Donald Glover, and Evan Peters made me think this had to be a solid horror flick. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to my hopes. The writers of Lazarus Effect couldn’t decide the rules for their own movie. Is evil Zoe battling with the darkness trying to take over, or just evil? Is she superpowered? Is she demonic? Is she preying on the others or just twisted? The script never seemed to figure out what they wanted the character to be. With Zoe being the central focus and character, the failure to solidify and develop her character sunk the rest of the film. Still not the worst. I liked the open ending with the terror multiplying for a potential sequel, but with a mediocre response to this film, a sequel will never happen. The Lazarus Effect doomed itself never to be resurrected.
