Killing Lazarus offers a raw glimpse into the underbelly of friendship intertwined with crime. The pacing is deliberate, almost languid at times, mirroring the characters' slow descent into their own moral quagmires. Thurgood Jacobs, or T, is played with a subtle intensity, while Lazarus embodies a more conflicted soul, and their chemistry is palpable. The film's atmosphere is thick with tension as each scene builds upon their shared history—deeply entrenched in both loyalty and betrayal. The practical effects are surprisingly effective, enhancing the realism of their world. Themes of necessity versus comfort resonate throughout, creating a stark portrait of lives caught in the crossfire of their choices. It’s gritty and unrefined, but that’s what makes it distinctive.
