THE LAZARUS EFFECT (2015)

😾Dog Dies

Intense film that deserves a lot of credit for what it has done. Extremely polished and well developed though some of the deaths happen too quickly and don’t make entire sense with the progression of the plot? Not a bad film at all, the scene just before the ending is beautiful and intense

REWATCH REVIEW

A movie that takes place in a spooky lab where they are attempting to bring things back from the dead, what could go wrong? It really is a feast for the eyes, this film.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Scientists try to make a life serum but spoiler alert it fails. Olivia Wilde gets FUCKED but she turns into a spooky lady with a strange backstory. She is scary for sure. She kills everyone and then makes a little army for herself.

REWATCH REVIEW

A bunch of hot and sexy scientists are working on a serum that reanimates people which sounds like witchcraft but is also just science and depends on how long a thing has been dead I guess. They brought back a dog without telling us how long it had been dead. Either way they had started to figure out a creepy solution to death but some men with money stepped in so they only had one shot to do it in the middle of the night. The team snuck in to do science in the dark and… Big accident! Olivia Wilde (Zoe) got electrocuted and died! Very sad for Mark Duplass’ character, Frank. He tries to bring her back with conventional medicine but it doesn’t work now they must try The Serum.

The Serum is able to bring Zoe back but she is different somehow, her brain is firing at 100% power instead of 10% she can hear things she shouldn’t be able to. Zoe is becoming more and because of this she knows that the gang sees that she has come back different, come back wrong, so she is going to start going on the offensive when it comes to these silly skin bags. She tries to wash her hands and water hurts, the world is harsh on her and she doesn’t know why, I mean, she DIED for goodness sake and now no one is being nice to her!

Now our spunky recorder is being thrown into a dream sequence and we get a theory that maybe Zoe’s soul is stuck in a dream too? Theories about Zoe being ripped from Hell are one thing but her just having a little dream is another. Either way we get our first death and I don’t know why I said the deaths were quick before I guess I was just sad that Donald Glover was the first to go. It felt fast an hour in to say goodbye to that lovely man, I’m sorry. Anyway things really start to fall apart now, the gang start to realize Zoe is up to no good and she kills another member (sad!) before Frank and Eva can run away and try to hide. This works momentarily before Frank is outed when he attempts to trick Zoe which of course doesn’t work.

For some reason Zoe really hates Eva and keeps sending her to the Hell realm but Eva uses it to her advantage. They do that little fake out where you think that Eva solves the mystery of who set the fire in Zoe's nightmares and can get out alive but instead they just snap her neck real quick so that is fine. The scene in the hallway with Baby Zoe and Evil Zoe was really neat and fun so it felt kinda lame that it wasn’t “real” or whatever you would like to call it. In the end, Zoe lines up all her friends' corpses and starts to pump them full of serum to make an army of evil little serum babies. Yuck! Wack! Evil!

so i'm writing a new sherlock fic, and of course i need to double check what lazarus means

and google says it's a man resurrected by jesus, but also a syndrome where a person suddenly regain blood flow and "come back to life" after failed cardiopulmonary resuscitation

isn't that what happened when mary shot sherlock?

Crack prompt: Danny has declared war on the curses in Gotham. He is armed with a water balloon gun, but the balloons are full of medical-grade ectoplasm. He targets any location, ghost, or liminal being tainted by curses and/or corrupted ecto - absolutely drenching them before yeeting off again.

This includes the Bats. Danny is smart about it, though. He lived in Gotham for several months before acting, so he could get the lay of the land. He also waits for patrol to be finished before hitting the Bats - he doesn't want to interrupt their Quest to Better Gotham (or be labeled an invader to their haunt).

One night, Danny happens upon Batman patrolling alone and waits for him to finish cleaning up a crime scene before hitting they guy with a half-clip of balloons. Batman gives chase, like he always does, and Danny runs, like he always does. He knows by now that, for whatever reason, Crime Alley is off limits to Batman. The whole alley just gives off "no (other) bats allowed" vibes.

Red hood is just more territorial. Whatever.

At any rate, Danny is enjoying the chase, using just enough ghost powers to stay ahead of batman, almost-but-not-quite taunting him. Crime Alley isn't too far, so instead of turning invisible around a corner like he usually does, he makes his way to the Alley to see if the no-trasspassing rule is enough to stop Batman mid-chase. He leaps across rooftops and weaves through fire escapes, ecto-balloon-gun bouncing by its strap against his back, until finally he's at the border, slightly tapping into flight to make the jump across a slightly wider road into the alley proper.

He turns around immediately, spotting Batman skulking on the rooftop on the other side of the road, stopping the chase and suit half-covered in healing ectoplasm.

"Sanctuary!" Danny yells, pumping his fists in the air from getting caught up in the exciting rush of adrenaline, "I claim sanctuary!"

"Who the fuck is claiming sanctuary in my territory?" Red Hood booms from almost directly behind Danny. He would have yeeted out of his own skin from surprise if he hadn't spent years honing his ghost-fighting instincts. As it was, Danny instead whirled around and emptied the clip of balloons into Hood, purely out of reflex.

Hood stood there, drenched in ecto like his fellow Bat one rooftop over, glaring murder at Danny with glowing eyes. But his haunt betrayed Hood's true emotions.

Surprise, concern, impressed, you-little-brat.

Danny booked it to the fire escape and turned invisible the second he was out of sight.

Beloved Beyond Time

A DeadSerious Prompt where a young Damian follows his mother's advice about finding his future 'Beloved' and is smitten with a TimeTraveling Ghost King (Prince) Danny when his grandfather summoned the eldritch being.

Damian, despite being young, will want no other to be by his side once he takes over the League. Especially since the King was able to strike fear in his grandfather for even just for a moment.

Danny, whose just started taking up his soon to be Kingly title and duties, at first freaked out when a kid who just got out of toddlerhood is offering marriage. Who wouldn't. And well while he didn't fully encourage it, he found it a little adorable and tried to nudge the kid away from said... err crush feelings?

He was a little sad to have to say goodbye to the kid when his month long stay with the al Ghul's (mostly to see if they're worthy to keep the Pits) he was pretty for sure he'd never run into the kid again and if he did who knows how old they'd actually be because again.. time travel.

So Danny now at the age of 16 really wasn't expecting to be basically be cornered on his first day at his new school at Gotham Academy by a 17 year old Damian Wayne who is leaning over him and says "Hello Beloved. Time has been kind to you it seems."

Danny's poor half-alive heart is currently dying from being cornered by an older Damian.

Let this crazy train wreck begin.

[stars-obsession-pit]

Danny didn’t think about his early years prior to his adoption by the Fentons. Sure, he could still remember them, but he wanted that chapter of his life to remain firmly behind him. The part of him that had been Danyal was dead and buried.

But then his parents’ portal opened on top of him, and that history became all too important again.

His mind may have long since healed from the madness of the Pit Rage, but the taint of the Lazarus Waters from his resurrections still clung to his soul.

Guided, the addition of pure ectoplasm would have washed away those wounds. But there was no guiding intelligence behind what was happening. No grander plot. Just the energies of the portal taking whatever path was needed to complete their circuit.

And thus, as the ectoplasm rewrote Danny’s DNA into a half-ghost form, it also empowered the remnants of the Lazarus Pit’s effects.

Emotions from those whom the League had killed had long seeped their way into the ectoplasm of the Lazarus Pits, but they had been faint. Far weaker than full ghosts, barely even echoes. Enough to cause the Pit Rage, but no more.

But with the influx of pure ectoplasm, those echoes grew.

And so when Danny emerged from the portal, it was with a choir of countless angry voices screaming into his brain to avenge them, to raze the League to the ground until nothing remained.

THE LAZARUS EFFECT (2015) dir. David Gelb

[frownyalfred]

I have seen drawings of Robin Jason with a gap in his teeth, and even if it’s not drawn like that, kids usually have not very straight teeth. Do you think the Lazarus pit straighten Jason’s teeth for him or did he have braces for a while before coming back as red hood, or, of course, does he just have perfect looking teeth? 

Even worse. I think the Lazarus Pit made all his old teeth fall out (even the adult ones) and he grew back new, adult teeth while coming back to life fully. Maybe they’re even a little sharper. Especially the incisors.

Prompt 311

Alien biology is weird. Liminal biology? Even weirder. 

Ecto? Very much a wellspring for creation despite its association with death. Or rather undeath, but that’s a debate that many a realms denizen has tried to find the answer of. Usually there weren’t many liminals- ecto contaminated, yes, but enough to form Cores? No, only a few throughout history. Until the age of Heroes and Villains came about. But that’s a story for another time. 

See ectoplasm builds up over time in the human body, and even more so for those that have formed cores who create their own. And it’s not like it’s well studied, what with most not even being aware of the changes or the fact they aren’t fully human anymore. 

Why is this important? Well, what happens if two liminals (accidentally or not) mix their ecto together? Well, that depends on intentions, even if it’s just an impulsive thought at the time. Which in turns means that accidents? Yeah, accidents might’ve happened. Oops….

THE LAZARUS EFFECT (2015) + dir. David Gelb

[space-dreams-world]

In most DC fics, we have Jason after the pit can't stand to go out when Joker is out of arkham or there are other side effects to the pits.

So, in Danny Phantom, we can compare the ectoplasm in the portal to some form of clearer pits. There should also be side effects. With the death scar and whatever you headcannon, I feel like on some days or even on his death day, Danny can't stand being near his parents, the Portal or Sam (if you count the wish that they weren't friends anymore where Sam had to kill Danny to rebrand him).
