- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: Yeah, “The Lazarus Effect” isn’t a groundbreaking film, and it follows a definite formula, but it does so with a fully committed delivery and some solid horror film moments.
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: [I]t’s not too much to expect that, if a movie is going to ask the big questions, it at least follow through in exploring them with some degree of curiosity.
- James Jay Edwards @ FilmFracture
- Excerpt: The Lazarus Effect’ Should Come With A Do-Not-Resuscitate Order

- Excerpt: The fright ultimately fizzles…

- Excerpt: Been to hell? Who cares, here’s some jump scares and flickering lights.
- Jeremy Kibler @ The Artful Critic
- Excerpt: At an efficiently paced but nevertheless undercooked 83 minutes, “The Lazarus Effect” isn’t entirely bad, but it’s cool for the ideas it initially flirts with rather than for what it ends up being. It’s a B-movie that very rarely jolts itself to life.
- [New – 1/28/16] | Daniel Lackey @ The Nightmare Gallery
- Excerpt: Of course there’s no way you’re going to travel back across the veil that separates death from life without turning evil for no appreciable reason whatsoever!
- Brent McKnight @ The Last Thing I See
- Excerpt: The Lazarus Effect isn’t a terrible horror movie, but it’s so by the book, and you see so many ways that it has potential to be much more interesting, that you can’t help but be disappointed by how flat and generic the final product is.
- João Pinto @ Portal Cinema [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: Olivia Wilde is stunning as always, but “The Lazarus Effect” doesn’t deliver those promised thrirlls
- Jason Pirodsky @ Expats.cz
- Excerpt: Flatliners meets Re-Animator in The Lazarus Effect, a dull, plodding, but mercifully short (clocking in at under 80 minutes, minus credits) horror film from Blumhouse.
