Amazon.com:
This 1987 thriller was a predictable hit with the teen audience it worked overtime to attract. Like most of director Joel Schumacher's films, it's conspicuously designed to push the right marketing and demographic buttons, and granted, there's some pretty cool stuff going on here and there. Take Kiefer Sutherland, for instance. In Stand by Me he played a memorable bully, but here he goes one step further as a memorable bully vampire who leads a tribe of teenage vampires on their nocturnal spree of bloodsucking havoc. Jason Patric plays the new guy in town, who quickly attracts a lovely girlfriend (Jami Gertz), only to find that she might be recruiting him into the vampire fold. The movie gets sillier as it goes along, and resorts to a routine action-movie showdown, but it's a visual knockout (featuring great cinematography by Michael Chapman) and boasts a cast that's eminently able (pardon the pun) to sink their teeth into the best parts of an uneven screenplay. --Jeff Shannon
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - A Satisfying Horror-Fantasy Flick (Rating: 3.5 of 5)
Far from being a perfect film, or even great for that matter, it is none the less a movie that will live on. As with anything, time can be very revealing. But things that seem pretentious and awkward now, were felt wholly different circa '87. But that happens with any film as it dates, and that is not the reason why I give it a 3.5 rather than a 4 or 4.5 (on to that later).
Whatever its faults, this film has a lot going for it, including a stellar cast. This film, as you should know, ... Read More
Rating:  - Love this movie!
I've loved this movie since I was a teenager, and watching it again as an adult, it is still a great movie!
Rating:  - Essential viewing for vampire fans
The Lost Boys stands out as one of the finest examples of an 80's teen horror/comedy movie themed around vampires that this reviewer has seen, (amazingly other movies that fall into that category actually exist!). While it ocassionally treads into some rather corny territory as far as the humor goes, it still maintains enough seriousness to go down as a solid vampire movie.
In short, a mother and her two sons, Sam and Michael, move to the town of Santa Carla, the "murder capital of the ... Read More
Rating: - Blu review only...
I have had the most difficult time in rating this release fairly. I live here in Santa Cruz County and this film is a time capsule for the area, but I was watching this to check the Blu transfer, which unfortunately was limited to original quality shortcomings.
The special features are all similar to the 2-disc set, and the sound was not mixed to anything new (sounded worse in some parts). The positive though is the clarity improvements for the backgrounds and recognizing all the extras. ... Read More
Rating: - Lost Boys hi-def is outstanding
Being a huge fan of the original (DVD), I couldn't wait to get my hands on the blu-ray release... and I wasn't disappointed.
Some of the close up or darker scenes show a little graininess, but overall the movie is gorgeous looking.And the audio soundtrack (which fans of the movie will appreciate) has received the sounds tweak that blu-ray movies are becoming accustomed to - it sounds spectacular.
Old school fans of the movie will be in for a treat with this blu-ray feature ... Read More
