THE LAZARUS EFFECT follows a group of researchers led by Frank and his fiancé Zoe who've achieved the unimaginable - bringing the dead back to life. After a successful, yet unsanctioned, trial on a newly deceased animal, the team is ready to unveil their breakthrough to the world. When the dean of their university learns of their underground experiments, their project is unexpectedly shut down and their materials confiscated. Frank, Zoe and their team take matters into their own hands, launching a rogue attempt to recreate their experiment, during which things go terribly wrong and one of their own, Zoe, is horrifically killed. Fueled by terror and grief, Frank pushes them to do the unthinkable: attempt to resurrect their first human test subject. Initially, the procedure appears a success, but the team soon realizes something is wrong with Zoe. As her strange new persona reveals itself, the team quickly becomes stuck in a gruesome reality. They are no longer faced with the question of whether they can bring someone back to life- but rather, the wrath of her return. (Relativity Media)

Engels The plot and in fact the rest of the story, including the (rather sympathetic) ending, feels like something out of a better (i.e. not completely stupid) episode of Believe it or Not. But I liked the fact that the film, thanks to the sober runtime, quickly got to the point, did not delay and tried only to worry and frighten from beginning to end. Unfortunately, it didn't always work out. ()

Engels I was looking forward to the film mainly because of Olivia, who I still think deserves a really good role. And she didn't get it again. The story is simple, which wouldn't bother me so much, but the plot is just bad, too unoriginal, and too boringly executed. This is a horror where there are incredibly few moments when I could actually get scared. Overall, it's led so incredibly straightforwardly and, above all, uninterestingly, that the film simply can't do anything with you, and you'll just be watching without experiencing any emotion whatsoever. Except maybe boredom. It’s too bad, I expected much more from this. ()
