The Lazarus Project

2008 · Film · 99 min

Directed by John Glenn

DramaThriller

After Ben Garvey foolishly turned back to crime, he thought his life was over when he was sentenced to death by lethal injection. But his death sentence isn't quite what it seems, as Ben regains consciousness near an eerie psychiatric ward, where he's told he's been hired as the groundskeeper. With the state of his soul in question, and the love for his wife and daughter all the more real and powerful, Ben must figure out if he's truly cheated death, or if he's become part of something far more sinister.

    I find it likely that our consciousness is in some other plane or dimension. Cells emerging full on consciousness and personal experience just seems too... simplistic?

    And while it was kind of a dumb movie at the end, the beginning of The Lazarus Project had an interesting take: if the law of conservation of mass / energy applies, why wouldn't there be a conservation of consciousness?
