Lazarus: Apocalypse

About This Movie

Lazarus: Apocalypse dives into this eerie 1950s setting, balancing horror with a noir-like investigative tone. The narrative kicks off with George Lazarus, an insurance investigator, who finds himself entangled in dark corporate secrets tied to the ominous Deadly Sin Cigarette Company. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it builds this oppressive atmosphere that lingers. The practical effects are commendable for a low-budget flick, adding a raw edge to the horror elements. The performances, particularly from the lead, give it a gritty realism that pulls you in. It’s all about the slow unraveling of the mystery behind these illnesses that feels like a commentary on corporate negligence, which gives it a distinct flavor compared to typical horror films.
