Classic Thoughts: The Lost Boys

Lost boys posterThere is quite a vampire revival going on with the successes of Twilight and the HBO series True Blood.

This revival (and the season premiere of True Blood) resulted in quite a few vampire films being shown this month OnDemand.

Of those, I decided to check out the 80s classic The Lost Boys.

The film is essentially a combination of a vampire horror film and 80s teen movies. The film also moves back and forth from a dramatic scenes with Jason Patrick and to the more comedic ones with Corey Haim and .

Overall the film probably goes along with St. Elmos Fire as one of Joel Schumacher’s most memorable films and it is worth a look.

8/10
