When newly-divorced Lucy moves her sons to her father's house in Santa Clara, California -- "the murder capital of the world" -- her teenage son, Michael, quickly falls in with the town's bad kids: a bike-riding, Jim Morrison-worshipping gang of blood-sucking vampires. Her younger son Sam and his buddies, the Frog brothers, are the only ones who recognize the signs of vampirism in Michael, and they plot to battle the legions of the night before they take over the entire town.

Reviews for The Lost Boys
The picture affirms that the only thing truly important is this image of the older brother with his arm around the younger.
With its cool cast and classic kiss-off ending, The Lost Boys will forever be a cultural touchstone of '80s cinema. [Blu-Ray]
The movie may not offer a lot in the way of serious frights or even originality, but it is most definitely weird and decidedly funny.
The Lost Boys is not a movie you want to put in a time capsule or even revisit, unless your name happens to be Corey.
