DVD Description
The Lost Boys:

The Lost Boys is one of 80's cinema's iconic vampire films about two new-in-town brothers who discover a local gang of motorcycle youths (including a young Kiefer Sutherland) are more undead than alive. Younger brother Sam (Corey Haim) works hard to eradicate the ghouls but his older brother (Jason Patric) falls in love with the group's lone female (Jami Gertz). Soon, he finds that he's gradually becoming a vampire himself. Shot on location in the coastal California town of Santa Cruz and directed by Joel Schumacher (Flatliners), The Lost Boys became a pop-culture phenomenon thanks to its attractive young stars, offbeat soundtrack, and hip, clever marketing campaign. The film's tagline: "Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die. It's fun to be a vampire." perfectly captured its knowing mixture of attitude and gore.

The Lost Boys 2: The Tribe:

Risking everything in search of the ultimate rush is fun when you know you can't die. In The Lost Boys 2: The Tribe Angus Sutherland takes up where brother Kiefer left off in the original cult favourite as the lead vampire in this modern re-imagining of The Lost Boys. The seaside village of Luna Bay is rife with outcasts and plagued by an outbreak of missing persons. As the sun sets the Tribe rises: a group of adrenaline-fueled, thrill-crazed vampires who tear up the surf and the streets with non-stop action. But when a champion surfer (Tad Hilgenbrinck, American Pie Presents Band Camp) and his sister (Autumn Reeser, The OC) move in, dark secrets erupt into hot-blooded passion and full-blooded fear. Helping fight the forces of hell, Corey Feldman reprises his signature role of vampire hunter Edgar Frog. Once you join the Tribe there's no turning back.

2.0 out of 5 stars Classic first film, poor sequel., 9 Sep 2008
By Mr. D. Bell "Dan Bell" (Northampton, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The first film in this set is a masterpiece. There are enough reviews on here stating just that, so this review will concentrate solely on the sequel.

When I first heard about this sequel I had mixed feelings. The original is arguably one of the greatest vampire movies ever made. Done with the originals atmosphere and energy, a sequel could be very good. However, I also felt it could be total disaster because some films should never be remade or spawn sequels, and lost boys is a prime example of this.

Sadly the film didn't live up to either expectation. As a vampire movie on its own it would probably sink without a trace. By calling it a sequel to the lost boys, it will guarantee that suckers like me will watch it that have such fond memories of the original. There are so many problems though, I don't know where to begin. Whilst the original was an adult film, it never became offensive whereas in the sequel, the characters are not likeable or cool, and talk in such a profane manner it borders on the offensive. Its seems as if the writers were going for a record on how many times the "F" work could be used before the opening credits roll. I do my fair share of swearing, but, when it's used with such frequency in a film it just doesn't sound real and becomes tiresome.

Another issue is a dreadful performance from Angus Sutherland. In the original, Keifer Sutherland gave a masterclass in how to portray a charismatic, and at the same time terrifying, lead character. In this sequel Angus (Keifers half brother) gives a performance devoid of any charisma or menace and seems to think that by whispering and mumbling the audience will not notice just how dire he is.

But, the biggest problem of all is the one thing that actually links this to the original; Corey Feldman. If anyone was wondering why he has done hardly any acting in the last 20 years or so, here is all the evidence you need. Sometimes watching him his embarrassing. He puts on a ridiculous, gravely, growling, old man-esque voice that makes him sound likes he's 80 years old. It doesn't help that he still looks 15. His one liners are poor, and any potential he had years ago disappeared when he chose drug taking over acting. It's a real shame as he was brilliant in the first film and was genuinely seen as a future star.

To sum up, I don't think it takes a genius to work out I didn't think much of this film. Those who remember the original with such fondness will probably still watch this regardless of any reviews, but please don't expect to be wowed like we all were with the original, otherwise you will be extremely disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Death by stereo..., 18 Sep 2008
One of the 80s' greatest movies and surely one of the most imaginative vampire movies of all time finally gets a sequel but is it worth the 21-year wait?
The original breathed new life into the increasingly stale bloodsucking genre back in 1987, resulting in a film that still holds its own today.
The makers of the sequel appear to have reasoned that what isn't broke shouldn't be fixed, hence their decision to peddle exactly the same story, albeit it with a Noughties makeover. Gone are the hairspray, shoulder pads and Kiefer Sutherland. In their place are surfboards, floppy hair and The OC's Autumn Reeser.
Fans of the original will either find the homage's, cameos and references to the original cringe worthy or chic cool. Saxophone man from the original is here in one of the film's most disturbing scenes. Corey Haim does appear in the movie in a brief role, but it's Corey Feldman reprising his role as Edgar Frog, which every 80s child surely wanted to see back, he doesn't disappoint for a moment and hasn't changed, still delivering his lines in a gravelly voice and still wearing that trademark bandanna.
Before he went all 24, Sutherland was the coolest, most terrifying vampire to grace the screens since Christopher Lee. His younger half brother Angus plays head Nosferatu this time around, he has the pretty boy looks but is about as terrifying as the thought of him starring in Flatliners 2.
So, nowhere near as good as the original but rent them both with a few beers and enjoy a silly yet enjoyable straight-to-DVD sequel.

2.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Horror/Unimpressive Sequel, 14 Oct 2008
By Dismal Angel "Ash" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
  
The Lost Boys (original movie) is one of the most popular vampire movies of it's time, and it's success relies not just on the pure brilliance of it's story, but on the wonderful comedic timing and impressive performances by Keifer Sutherland, Corey Feldman and Jason Patrick.

A divorced mother of two is forced to move to Santa Carla to live with her father in financial defeat. Her two teenage sons, Michael and Sam are dismayed to find that their grandfather lives in a ranch-cabin style house with no TV, miles from anywhere, amongst an impressive array of stuffed animals.

At first it seems life doesn't seem as exciting in Santa Carla, until Michael falls in love at first sight with Star, a dark-haired beauty distracted with a bunch of loud trouble-making bikers who seem to be interested in initiating Michael into their gang. Sam, too finds trouble when he enters a comic book store to meet a pair of unusual brothers by the name of Edgar and Allen Frogg, who push vampire comics on him and try to convince him Santa Carla isn't a safe place to be.

After Michael's initiation into the gang - led by a bleach-blonde mullet-donning Keifer Sutherland - he finds he has an aversion to sunlight and a thirst for something he can't quite put his finger on - his little brother's blood!

Realising his brother is a vampire, Sam - with the help of the Frogg brothers - tries to find a solution to fix things before Michael makes his first kill and crosses the point of no return. It means killing the head vampire, but they need to find him first.


The Lost Boys 2 - The Tribe: This is probably the only sequel I've ever really seen that feels less like a sequel and more like a stand alone movie with a familiar character in it. Brother and sister Chris and Nicole move to a small town to live in an aunt's guest house after their parents are killed.

The town is apparently overrun with vampires, and vampire leader Shane seems to have a great interest in Nicole, passing on the vampire curse to her. Chris realises quickly what is going on after Edgar Frogg, a gruff-talking mercenary who carries stakes and holy water, tries to kill Nicole. It becomes a race to find the head vampire before Nicole turns into a full-fledged vampire, and Chris realises he may have to make an ultimate sacrifice to prevent it from happening.

While the first movie is a cult classic, the sequel doesn't hold a candle to it. This story does not follow immediately after The Lost Boys but jumps past many events that happened without explaining what they were (check for the original comics for explanations). Missing the dark humour of the first one, and with very little of the original cast to support the story, it quickly becomes another gore movie with far too much female nudity - there's a barely noticable cameo at the end by one of the first movie's characters which suggests a possible third installment, but this might have bombed so badly that it might have burned out it's chances altogether.

Part of me wishes I hadn't watched the sequel as it ruined the magic of the first movie so much more.
