Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSanta Cruz, where Santa Carla takes place, was once plagued with the reputation of being "The Murder Capital Of The World" because of a series of very brutal murders by three different very disturbed men in the early 1970's. Because of John Linley Frazier, Herbert Mullin and Ed Kemper, Santa Cruz endured 28 murders over a 30 month period between 1970 and 1973.
- GoofsAround one hour into the film, when David and his gang attack a group of people while Michael watches on, one of the victims is the punk with a gray stripe in his hair who was killed earlier in the film.
- Alternate versionsWhile the 1984 Warner Bros. Pictures logo is retained in the pre-2004 prints and 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, it is replaced with the 2003 variant in the most other prints.
- ConnectionsEdited into The Lost Boys: The Lost Scenes (2004)
Featured review
What THESE guys would have done to Captain Hook!
OK everyone agrees THE LOST BOYS was way ahead of its time. Dead set right! In essence it hasn't aged at all, only the fashions! By far Corey Haim's best flick, Cory Feldham's too, although I rather liked TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES (The original, that is)
Schumacher's concept of placing the vampire myth in sleepyville USA was commendable, it really worked. Sutherland took his role in both teeth and gave us a stylish vampire-on-a-Harley with Jami Gertz in tow. God does SHE look young here compared to her role as Bill Paxton's neurotic fiancee in TWISTER?)
Absolutely outstanding soundtrack that my kids have totally worn out the last decade or so. As a family we have probably watched THE LOST BOYS more than any other film. Everything gels, gr8 fx and, given the subject matter, a literate script.
Deserving of the relatively high rating it has received here. WE have the same problem here in Castle Hill, WAY too many damn vampires!
