The mother of all Vampire movies and a sound track to kick ass. My alllllllllll time favourite movie on the planet deserves nothing more than extra heart to give an awesome 11/11

FUCKING AWESOME!

The Lost Boys is kind of a ridiculous and cheesy film, but it’s still a fucking masterpiece! Probably the only good vampire movie I have ever seen. The film’s aesthetic!! *cries* So beautiful!! Some great 80s actors involved in the film. AMAZING soundtrack! The Doors fits in with The Lost Boys so perfectly smooth. The movie’s theme song “Cry Little Sister” is also so chilling and beautiful. The setting of the movie was the perfect choice, and the cave! My god, if only that cave were real, I’d pay good money to go see it.

The Lost Boys is a typical vampire movie, however it still touches on comedy, drama, and is kind of a coming-of-age film, where trying to discover self-identity is involved. It is an extremely well-built film. And man, is it stylish!

Please watch this film instead of that cheesy ass romantic bullshit film called Twilight.

80s atmosphere and style, and genuinely good tension. Not really a full on horror, but it has its moments. Lots of light comedy. It's a very well made movie. Probably the type of wacky script that could only work in the 80s. Keifer plays the bully very well, like he did in Stand By Me.
6.5 but ill give 7. Not sure how much replay value this has.

Jason Patric was such an inspiration in this movie. What an iconic look he gave us we really were not ready.

The Comedy Button strikes again!

One of my favourite films of all time, just fun with vampires.

_The Lost Boys_ is an iconic '80s cult classic that blends horror and comedy, while captivating you with its unique charm. Kiefer Sutherland delivers an impressive performance as the charismatic vampire gang leader, David, adding depth to the film. With its memorable characters and nostalgic appeal, this is a must-watch for fans of '80s cinema and vampire flicks.

A Great Vampire movie overall, the music, humor and setting were all spot on, honestly I could have watched more.

A really enjoyable take on the vampire genre, "Kiefer Sutherland" was a great cast as "David" he really suited the role.


[spoiler] When the kids formed up to go to the vampires lair and essentially start a war with the vampires, I was thinking how on earth are they gonna pull this off, but the ending was great from the holy water pistols to the giant stakes. [/spoiler]


My only real criticism would be that [spoiler] I was disappointed by the fight between David and Michael or even Michael and Max for that matter as they were pretty short, I was expecting a longer fight sequence between these characters. [/spoiler]

A movie about vampire youth gangs.

>*"Drink some of this. Be one of us."*

So American, so late 80s and so stylish! From the eccentric clothes, wild hair styles, explosive soundtrack and character dynamics. ***The Lost Boys*** is essentially a vampire hazing gone terribly wrong. It's everything a vampire movie should be, it has romance, "teenagers", the comedy works, the characters really pop, some solid scares, great practical effects and the vampires are so cool. The brother dynamics between Michael and Sam are the heart of this movie, at least for me. One thing that bothered me was the exagerated name calling, take a shot every time you hear someone say mom, Sam or Michael. Some weird choices here and there, like that awkward sex scene. Love the storyline of Sam and the Frog brothers with the comic books. The grandpa might just be my favorite character. Amazing third act but I totally saw that twist coming a mile away. Best way to end the movie!

Full of things that made 80s movies a blast, but Joel Schumacher was never a great director and it shows here. Film is so-so other than it's style, until it's Home Alone-esque ending.

For some reason I had high expectations and those weren't fullfilled, it might grow on me after a rewatch.

I love the 80's setting and the music,all the actors do a great job. The story is okay. I knew it was a comedy/horror so I was not expecting a scary movie yet the balance seems off to me.

In the end I just felt really neutral and didn't care for many of the characters. If anything Corey Feldman would be my favorite cuz his parts reminded me a lot of "Stand by Me".

The screen could be black the whole time and I'd still give it a 10 the OST is just too good

There should be a drinking game for how many times they say "Michael" in the movie.

Also, when the song Cry little sister played, that was the most cinematic experience I had with the movie.

DEATH BY STEREO ... yes. Everything 80s stuck in one big vampire show with a kick ass soundtrack ..

"One thing about livin' in Santa Carla I never could stomach. All the damn vampires."
Best line of the movie.

I didn't grow up watching this movie. I didn't expect it to be a horror comedy like the Evil Dead franchise. I enjoyed it. I can see why it's considered a cult classic.

Actually more horror then I remember. Feels like one of those movies that just gets better

Simply a epic summary of 80ties childhood epicness. Surly overdosed from current POV but well. Dont care.

From director Joel Schumacher comes the cult classic vampire film The Lost Boys. The story follows a family that moves to the beach community of Santa Carla, California, and is soon preyed upon by a vampire clan that tries to seduce the oldest son into joining them. Kiefer Sutherland leads the cast and gives a seminal performance. And the Two Coreys (Corey Haim & Corey Feldman), provide a lot of fun comedy relief. Schumacher does a great job directing; creating a captivating surreal visual aesthetic that enhances the fantasy themes. Additionally, the soundtrack is exceptionally well done and includes the unforgettable theme song “Cry Little Sister.” The Lost Boys is groundbreaking film with a unique vision.

Every generation needs a good vampire movie. This is the one for Generation X. Sexy and brutal vampires set up shop in a coastal California community and seduce the local populace right out of their blood. Not sure how it will play with younger generations as it is very dated, but I like it just fine, thank you very much.

Yo Bill Preston is a vamp

Big hair and a great soundtrack, oh and vampires.

_The Lost Boys_ may be the most vampire goth movie ever made, but it's not perfect. The main drawback is that, being an '80s movie, it is a teen comedy first, and a horror movie second - in fact it's an hour before we get any full-on vampire action, and from there until the end, I think it's pretty solid. Tonally, this sits somewhere between _The Monster Squad_, and _Fright Night_.
Now, while I think this is a classic, and mandatory viewing for anyone who loves vampire movies, it feels like it needed to be longer.
I have seen _The Lost Boys_ so many times, and it was only upon watching it tonight, for the hundredth time, that I really noticed all the holes. If the biggest flaw in a movie is that I wanted more of it, that's pretty good.
Anyway, we get a young Kiefer Sutherland, the two Coreys, and a nice '80s soundtrack.

Definitely nice to go back and rewatch this movie from when I was younger. This is literally an 80’s time capsule. From the way they dress, to the type of music, and the list goes on. Lol! But it’s definitely a classic for nostalgic purposes!

The best Joel Schumacher movie which isn’t that bold of a statement but also one of the better vampire movies which explains its cult status. A very fun movie that feels very 80’s and also has a great soundtrack.
