I liked Flatliners and the RE franchise, and, at best, really couldn't get into Event Horizon or Lucy. But even if I liked all of them, doing a mash-up of all four is so derivative as to leave no room for any originality. And they swapped the only real chance at resolution in the story (the little girl maybe opening the door as being able to move on) for the cheap and obvious set-up for a sequel ... Lazarus Effect is a bust as far as I'm concerned.
Batting
50-50 with horror panned by the critics - totally disagreed with them on
As Above, So Below, but totally agreed with them on this one (and I
really wanted to like Olivia Wilde, since I really liked her in Tron
Legacy, and this was done by the makers of Paranormal Activity, of which
I thought the first two movies were good, so I wanted to like it on
those grounds too, but it's just no good ... not as horrendous as
Prometheus, but getting there)
