    From Blumhouse Productions -- the micro-budget movie company that brought you Paranormal Activity, Insidious and The Purge -- comes The Lazarus Effect, a resurrection horror film directed by David Gelb (Jiro Dreams of Sushi) and starring Mark Duplass, Olivia Wilde, Evan Peters, Donald Glover and Sarah Bolger.

    The film follows a group of researchers on the brink of creating a serum that will bring the dead back to life and give people "the second chance they deserve," according to the project's leaders Frank (Duplass) and his fiancée Zoe (Wilde). But after a successful trial on a dead dog, the team's research is confiscated by a generic "evil corporation" led by a smarmy Sam Wise (who is promptly never seen again). Left with no other options, the researchers decide to duplicate the experiment, only this time -- after a devastating mishap -- they use a human subject. As these things go, the results are... undesirable.

    At its core, The Lazarus Effect is straight, junky horror, but the movie does at least hint at its inherent morality issues. Frank is an atheist, Zoe a believer, and each of them have their own theories for what happens to you after you die. As Zoe posits early on, "If you're going to ask the big questions, you have to be prepared for the answers." Alas, those questions aren't fully explored, although they do get a bit more play towards the end. Overall though it's pretty standard, sophomoric stuff.

That's a shame, considering it has some cool ideas and a creepy setup. But despite a good cast and a short running time, Blumhouse Productions' latest mi...

The site's consensus reads "The Lazarus Effect has a talented cast and the glimmer of an interesting idea, but wastes it all on insipid characters and dull, recycled plot points."
