I can't believe that I've never seen The Lost Boys from beginning to end. Made in 1987, it's a cult classic of my generation. The cast is great with Dianne Weist, Keifer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, and of course, the Coreys (Corey Haim & Corey Feldman). Dianne moves her sons Jason Patric (hot!) and Corey Haim to "Santa Carla" (aka Santa Clara), the murder capital of the world. Lo and behold, vampires are the source of all the missing people. The story is predictable, but vivid and fun. It's not for children, but not as scary as it could be. The sets are cool and the make-up is very good. The acting is solid. Basically, it's a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon in pjs with popcorn and your high school friends.
