Editorial Review: This 1987 thriller was a predictable hit with the teen audience it worked overtime to attract. Like most of director Joel Schumacher's films, it's conspicuously designed to push the right marketing and demographic buttons, and granted, there's some pretty cool stuff going on here and there. Take Kiefer Sutherland, for instance. In Stand by Me he played a memorable bully, but here he goes one step further as a memorable bully vampire who leads a tribe of teenage vampires on their nocturnal spree of bloodsucking havoc. Jason Patric plays the new guy in town, who quickly attracts a lovely girlfriend (Jami Gertz), only to find that she might be recruiting him into the vampire fold. The movie gets sillier as it goes along, and resorts to a routine action-movie showdown, but it's a visual knockout (featuring great cinematography by Michael Chapman) and boasts a cast that's eminently able (pardon the pun) to sink their teeth into the best parts of an uneven screenplay. --Jeff Shannon
Strange events threaten an entire family when two brothers move with their divorced mother to a California town where the local teenage gang turns out to be a pack of vampires. DVD Features: Production Notes Theatrical Trailer

Average Rating: 
Rating: - '80s thrill ride with vampires!
The Lost Boys is a great horror flick from 1987. Featuring an all-star cast including Dianne Wiest, Jason Patrick, Corey Haim, Corey Feldman, Jami Gertz, and Kiefer Sutherland. I really enjoyed this film as a child, this movie is somewhat scary, it's considered a cult classic, buy this dark fantasy and see why. Enjoy!
Rating: - Cult film
It's funny to watch this film again now... since I now live near Santa Cruz (i.e. Santa Carla)
Music's great and the film always makes me laugh at the dry humour... a must watch cult following for this one.
Recommended viewing!
Rating: - Great 80s vampire flick that's still good today
You never grow old, and you never die. But you must feed! Kiefer Sutherland's words remain forever immortalized through this flick. Santa Carla has more than its fair share of missing persons. Michael (Patric) soon discovers David's (Sutherland) gang is responsible for the killings/feedings. Will Michael choose to save his family or succumb to becoming a vampire after having swallowed David's blood, this, following an etherical initiation rite? An excellent Schumacher film.
Rating: - A great set for a fantastic cult film!
I was so excited to see this set, this is one of my all-time favorite movies! The special features are fun, and I really needed to replace my worn-out VHS from 1987. I am so glad they put this out!
Rating: - One of the most fun times you'll have watching a movie
The Lost Boys is a movie that could only work in the 80s; while sometimes called a classic I don't think I would go that far, but it is a cult classic and one of the most entertaining films I have ever seen. While it is a horror movie there is nothing really scary here. And despite the R-rating it's a very light one at that. The Lost Boys is very much a product of it's time and a damn good one at that. I figured with the release of the sequel The Lost Boys: The Tribe due out this summer I might as ... Read More
