Lazarus Effect trailer rises and brings evil with it.
TrailerThe goal is simple, to bring someone back from the dead. That’s what the new Lazarus serum is for. But when scientists play with life and death, there is always the temptation to play god, especially when they rise again in their evil incarnation.
Relativity Studios just dropped their new trailer for Blumhouse Production’s new horror movie The Lazarus Effect. The movie stars Olvia Wilde as a dog-loving scientist who gets thrown a bone after being fatally electrocuted during an experiment. The Lazarus Effectalso stars Mark Duplass, Donald Glover, Evan Peters and Sarah Bolger.
According to their press release, the film tells the story of “researchers led by Frank (Mark Duplass) and his fiancée Zoe (Olivia Wilde,) 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 (Donald Glover, Sarah Bolger and Evan Peters) 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.”
Blumhouse Productions is responsible for the thriller film franchises The Purge, Insidious and Sinister. The Lazarus Effect was directed by David Gelb.
The Lazarus Effectopens in theaters on February 27th.
