Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Gripping story with well-crafted characters

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

"Lazarus Man" had such an original plot that I was rapt at every episode. The mystery was intriguing and the pacing of the mystery was suspenseful. I also liked Robert Urich as Lazarus. His heartfelt performance was only made more poignant by his subsequent illness.The plot involved a man who wakes up in a shallow grave with no memory of his past. As the show evolves he is haunted by the past he cannot remember. He begins to remember fragments of his past life and the conspiracy to kill president Lincoln. He was there that night at Ford's Theatre, but he doesn't know why. This is only one of the masterful subplots that season this show. I miss it.Brodie

This western is full of surprises. Followed up by the series with a great plot, keeping you guessing and hanging onto every episode. Robert Urick puts depth into this character bringing this Lazarus to life. The Series was a great success, only ended due to Robert's Poor Health. Lazarus's new lease on life has morals & good family values. If you like Mysteries, Robert Urick or Westerns it's a must see.
