Original Twilight, Vampire Cult Classic: The Lost Boys

What other movie could one be referring to? The Lost Boys (1987). Without a doubt, this has to be one of the most brilliant of vampire movies ever made. Jason Patric and Kiefer Sutherland are at the center of this Vampire masterpiece, and destined to show you their chops. However, one may have small complaint with the semi-transparent twist at the end of the movie. But over all it has to be seen as a relatively small complaint. Joel Schumacher does a beautiful job directing this low budget (at the time) piece of history.

The frog brothers did a great job of adding humor to this otherwise, mainly serious film, without spoiling the suspense. Offering a chance at bringing in some interest from those maybe not used to his genre. Jami Gertz looks absolutely heavenly in her role as Star. However, the show is undoubtedly stolen by Kiefer Sutherland, in the role of David, the rebellious, dangerous, and rambunctious, teenaged vampire, who seduces Michael (Jason Patric) into joining his gang of vampires.

The story is of a Mother (Dianne Wiest), and her two sons, Sam (Corey Haim) and Michael (Patric), who move to a small Californian town, called Santa Carla, often referred to as the murder capital of the world, to live with her father after getting divorced. Little so they know the reason for all the murders. The town happens to be inhabited by motorcycle gang rebellious, teenage vampires. While the mother begins to fall in love with her boss from the video store, where she has been employed, Sam spends his time reading vampire comics, which were given to him by two brothers (Corey Feldman, Jamison Newlander), who claim the town is infested by vampires. He of course does not believe them, but is brought to the reality of the fact that it is very likely true when his brother, Michael, has been seduced by the beautiful half-vampiress, Star (Gertz), and joins the gang, led by David (Sutherland). He realizes that neither Star nor Michael is a full vampire until they make their first kill, and they will not become human again until the lead vampire is killed.

So, he calls up the brothers Frog, and gets them to come in and help him solve the problem, even though he is scared that he might have to kill his brother. Making this film an overall thriller, and piece of art! The directing, acting, writing, camera work, special effects, stunts and, of course, the epic cinematography work with the breathtaking score to bring together one best loved vampire films in history. A classic that deserves respect, even from its contemporary partners.
