Most of the film is in black and white and is a flashback to 1957. A man is confessing about 1957, a man who can barely speak as he gives us details of people and places he could not have known about. An insurance detective named Lazarus is investigating a claim where a baker's dozen of people have disappeared and they all got the same illness. The film went overboard in attempting to duplicate the era and the Hitchcock spoofs were not well done. It used Biblical names such as Cain and Abel and went silly at Beelzebub.
The film opens with a Rev. 9:6 quote, something that has been done before. The lighting shadows were horrible. There was an attempt at camp, but it just wasn't funny. Notice the woman "typing" as there is typing noise, but the paper never moves.
The director's commentary was boring as Thomas J. Churchill speaks in a dull boring monotone. He definitely enjoyed the scenes far more than I did and his constant comparison to PSYCHO would have been funny if it wasn't so sad. No, this sound track isn't the second best horror film soundtrack out there. It wouldn't make the top 100. Churchill created a film with all the elements of a good movie, but it didn't come together. It was like listening to a great joke told by someone who can't tell a joke. It was better on paper.
I predict this film will quickly be on a multi-pack. The film the director refers to is "Lazarus: Day of the Living Dead." They didn't even bother to change that when they settled on "Lazarus Apocalypse" as the title.
