Editorial Review:
Director Joel Schumacher, who went on to helm many big-budget, tiny-intellectual movies, gave us an 1980s update of the story of the vampire. It was all hip, good-looking, and tremendously vacuous. Similarly, the music doesn't break any new ground or offer much that's timeless. INXS' collaborations with Jimmy Barnes are fine, for instance, but Foreigner vocalist Lou Gramm's "Lost in the Shadows (The Lost Boys)" verges on the painful in a way that only overwrought 1980s music can. Roger Daltrey's take on Elton John's "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" is by the numbers, and so wasted. It's only Echo and the Bunnymen's cover of The Doors' "People Are Strange" that warrants much attention, even if it's, erm, buried. --Scott Wilson

Rating: - lost boys fan
love the cd, if your a lost boys movie fan of cause you will love the cd, love the old songs goes really well with the film i still listen to it today in the car its a must have.

Rating: - Surprisingly Good
Bought it when it first came out on cassette. The cassette is long gone but the music haunts me still. A random bunch of covers and originals by mostly unknown musicians is not exactly what you'd expect to be *this* good. The charm lies in the eclectic feel of something slapped together by some really creative people who maybe didn't totally realize just how many people were gonna see their little horror flick. There's magic in it, maybe magic that seeped in from the filming location, or inspired ... Read More
Rating: - Who Doesn't Love The Lost Boys
One of my favorite songs is from The Lost Boys soundtrack. It's hard to find this soundtrack on the internet to pay for a download of a single song. However, to buy the cd and listen to my favorite song "Cry Little Sister" by Gerard McMann over and over again was worth it. There are other versions of "Cry Little Sister" by Gerard McMann and other artists from other albmus, but for some reason, the version from The Lost Boys soundtrack is the best. It hits all the right notes at just the right time. That's ... Read More
