[@ariellakahan-harth8831]

It's interesting to me that Claudia from 'Interview with the Vampire' was an inspiration for the (at least initial version of) the screenplay; she becomes an adult woman in a child's body and yet in this movie the vampires' minds seem to freeze at the ages at which they were turned. They're not adults in teenage bodies who behave like teenagers to keep a cover, they really are teenagers. I often think that 'The Lost Boys', more than other vampire fiction, really digs into the idea of vampirism as eternal youth specifically, and the 'Peter Pan' allusions are the perfect way to explore that.

[@box0choco593]

Yeah this also makes a lot of sense because naturally the lost boys 1980s vampires would represent like teen peer pressure i guess

[@isobelduncan]

Claudia was based on Anne Rice's daughter who sadly died young of cancer. She was five years old, same age as Claudia in the book.

[@StarrChild.]

Just a few details about the The Lost Buys in case anyone is interested. There was a book released along with this movie that gives more info on characters and backstory. - When Michael was being hazed by the guys and convinced he was eating maggots, he was high as David offered him a smoke. He was sitting down having visions before the scene so he was more open to accepting the things he saw weren't real. - Star was never dating David. David found her while she was homeless on the beach and she feels like she owes him. Star was actually closer with Paul who she said always made her laugh and assured her they were getting Michael and Sam to join them as brothers. She comments that the other two members of the gang, Marco and Dyawne, usually ignored her. - Michael spent a lot of time with the gang in the book. It shows his transforming happening over months and some extra scenes like Star piercing his ear and David coming across Michael and Star after they spent the night together. it awkward but David's just chill with it which i guess further proves he wasn't dating Star (or is super open). - There's more scenes of Lucy and Grandpa including backstory. Lucy was a hippie who ran away to be with Michael and Sam's dad and Grandpa was uptight. The last time Lucy saw her dad was at her mother's funeral where he fought with her husband but she says he was smart and proper like always. So when she sees how easy going and laid-back he is it is a shock to her. - There are hints in the book that the boys kidnap/kill/feed so much because they just like the slaughter. They typically tear their victims apart rather than bite at the wrist or neck which means they don't actually drink that much blood.

[@Jerome889]

😮 Is it a comic book?

[@Lanetgm]

You misspelled boys btw

[@tomero12]

24:11 Not only is this a reveal that Grandpa knows about the vampires, and might be a vampire hunter, but there's subtle hints that he might be a half-vampire himself. That extremely red "root beer" is forbidden from the rest of the family. Theory is that's animal blood from all his taxidermy work. He might have been bitten in a previous encounter but has since managed his symptoms. That he reaches for a bottle after slaying the head vampire would suggest he's still affected and there's still another head vampire out there.

[@somegirlnamedcat9977]

I’ve got two fun facts: 1.) Michael’s actor Jason Patric is the son of Jason Miller, who was Father Karras in the Exorcist. 2.) Joel Schumacher was going to make a direct sequel called The Lost Girls, but he never got the chance to make it. It would’ve brought back David, which is why his death is the only onscreen vampire death that doesn’t end with the body getting destroyed.

[@haiz768]

The cringe is unbearable. 😳

[@OddOneOut665]

I'd love to see The Lost Girls still happen, even if Joel is no longer with us. Maybe someone out there can honor him with it though. I like the idea that David is leading a group of Lady Vamps. Might be a good way to tackle the issues of prostitution and sex trafficking.

I’m glad you mentioned that a lot of filming was done in Santa Cruz. The movie is a big thing here. There are posters for The Lost Boys and Us on the boardwalk next to the Giant Dipper (the main roller coaster). The scene in the comic store was actually filmed at a local comic shop. It’s changed a lot since then but there’s a bunch of Lost Boys stuff in the store. I love that Santa Cruz honors the movies that were filmed there.

R.I.P. to Corey Haim, Barnard Hughes, Brooke McCarter, Edward Herrmann, and Joel Schumacher. Corey Haim is the reason why I watched it when I turned 12, and The Lost Boys is my number 1 horror movie. "You never grow old, you'll never die, but you must feed." Best vampire quote.

Fun Fact about Tim Capello's appearance: Joel Schumacher really wanted "I Still Believe" to be in the movie, but the original band, The Call, was a Christian band that didn't really want anything to do with vampires. Schumacher knew of Capello from Tina Turner's music videos so he asked Capello if he wanted to be in the movie. Capello loved the song and already knew it backwards and forwards. He did his performance in one take, in and out in an hour.

I 100% agree with you man, i mean, Batman Forever is at least enjoyable thanks to Carrey's Riddler and Tommy Lee Jones Two Face. Falling Down and The Lost Boys are his two best movies, i also very found of 8mm as well. Joel Schumacher's work will live forever. RIP

[@PeachMintz]

Yes! I’ve been wanting y’all to do this movie for a long time! Also fun fact about the saxophone guy, in the comics he’s a vampire hunter

[@tohkritxhaln2703]

NGL, I’ve never seen this movie and always thought that “You’re dead meeeaaat!” clip was actually Spike from Buffy. Also, James looks really good as a biker with an earring.

[@TheNumbersGuy-bm6bt]

You're missing out my friend

[@BigScheer]

You make a great point. If it was any other song, I'd be saying, "Really, again?" but feel free to play CRYYYY LITTLE SISTER as many times as you need. It fits this movie so well, like Top Gun and Danger Zone or Transformers the Movie and The Touch.

[@ProShidder]

YO YOU COVERED THIS MOVIE? Awesome, since this was my first ever experience with the horror genre!

[@Smoothy10]

17:24 it’s like eating an apple

[@usedhalfcart]

8:00 “yer’ fond of me lobster ain’t ya?” cracked me up man. love the editing of these vids please keep it up :)

[@Nightlark100]

I've never appreciated James dressing as characters more than I have today Also i love Molly's little jumper

[@partofit6915]

This is my one of my favorite movies! Thank you so much for finally covering this.

[@magiccookies420]

Finally!! I’ve been asking for this, the Hitcher, and Psycho kill counts forever

[@coyoteclockworkstudios3140]

I would love to see a People Under the Stairs Kill count! The theme is SUPER relevant, and as a huge Rottweiler fan and owner, Prince is one of the best Rotties to ever appear on the silver screen! A gimp suit and shotgun? What more do you need?

[@TishaC89]

I’ve been emailing requesting The People Under the Stairs since the channel first started

[@LastTheNoel]

8:00 GOD I was not expecting that Lighthouse audio edit. That cracked me the hell up, great joke

[@breadcupgaming]

I LOVE THIS MOVIE! You have no idea how long I've wanted you to cover this!

[@ravenforshee1046]

I have been waiting forever for this!! The Lost Boys is one of my absolute favorite films of all time and I'm so happy to see it getting recognition and discovered by a new audience

[@FFVison]

Something worth noting. You had mentioned that garlic has no effect on the vampires in this movie, but Max points out that this was only because he was invited into the house which renders any attacks on him powerless. At least that's how I remembered it being explained.

[@christopherdash9077]

The vampire that died in the bath said that garlic didn’t work

[@FFVison]

@@christopherdash9077 yep. You're right. I was going off memory thinking it was just from the "Parmesan" test after Max was invited into the house.

[@sarahhenry1845]

​@christopherdash9077 the water was holy water. Holy water still works.

[@christopherdash9077]

@@sarahhenry1845 I know

[@RLucas3000]

If no attacks work after being invited in, why did he die when staked by grandpa? That seems a massive loophole

[@GamingSaturnMoonManBoy]

I met both Kiefer Sutherland and Jason Patric at a comic con. Two very nice guys. I also went to the Santa Cruz boardwalk on a trip to California once as a kid and I found out years later that it was also where The Lost Boys was filmed and thought it was so cool

[@MetalThrashingMan13]

4:26 Thank you I needed that laugh so bad today 😂

[@viperdmk1483]

Tim Capello I actually met few weeks ago, nicest guy I ever met. he was doing a solo set at a bar and a bunch of people were there. Yes he performed I still believe from the lost boys. Afterwards he took the time to meet some people. I hopped in line early so I was near the front, my turn comes and I told him about seeing the lost boys a few weeks ago and telling him “I still think that scene you were in is my favorite from the movie. You were groovin so hard. The fact you had to go up there in the movie shirtless and oiled up man, I want your confidence.” We took a pic together afterwards.

[@Rubysoho907]

I had a friend who used to call me Michael because of this movie. She and I had quite the fascination with Feldman/Haim, we would watch either The Lost Boys or Stand by Me almost every Friday night for more than a year.

[@Animeguy300]

This movie is the reason why I love vampire and werewolf movies

[@whistlingstarlight2942]

One of my absolute favourite movies, super excited you decided to cover it!

[@falibat]

so happy to see a kill count for this movie, it's one of my uncle's favourites and it's helped us bond a bit :]

[@MrTonyman79]

This is one of my favorite movies ever! I also think that the relationship between Sam and Michael is the cornerstone of the film and that is why it is such a classic.

[@deniskadlic1162]

I never knew I needed to see James in a leather jacket.

[@esperensnare]

Gay goth Lost boys/dead meat fans rn: 👀 🔥 🥵 🥞 ♨️

[@rjkerving7152]

Just wanted James to know that i have been a huge fan since the OG days !! Sometimes when bored i will just go through and click on old Dead Meat videos and let them play for like 12 seconds and repeat thos process like 50 times just so the view counter goes up on each video lmaoo !!

[@Truckingcool]

Finally!!!! I’ve been waiting for you to do a kill count on this iconic movie! Thank you

[@brandongamingtv7545]

24:29 YESSSSSS THE SAX THATS WHAT WE'RE WAITING FOR BABEEEEEE

[@sweetleaf634]

When James confirmed Lost Boys in the Horror Royal Rumble I had no idea he meant so soon

[@SkyThePegasus]

An absolute classic so glad you finally did a video of this movie!

[@valleygirlhepkat]

I've been waiting for this video for a few years now and I love it

[@KenL414]

This movie holds the record for me seeing one film the most times in the theater - 29. A theater near my house was going out of business at the time, and had $4 tickets that also included all you can eat popcorn and soft drinks with it - I think a group of friends and I went every night for 3 straight weeks at least haha. The movie never got boring to us, either. James - magnificent "to the numbers" transition - definitely a top 10 for me hah

[@hazardem_]

After my dad introduced me to this movie when I was a kid, I proceeded to watch it every single night for 6 months straight. And even now I’m never tired of watching it

[@DodoRibeiro-ts6po]

I still believe The Lost Boys is at least 1000 times better than the entire Twilight saga

[@Cottagefairycore]

Yes but it’s not really a comparable front other than the premise of vampires. That’s like comparing teen wolf and ginger snaps 2. Just because they include lycanthropes doesn’t mean they’re comparable.

[@moviemaniac14]

You’re missing at least a few zeros

[@RealBradMiller]

​@@Cottagefairycoreoff topic but I love the Ginger Snaps franchise.

[@theratgamer1]

Dus that include all 3 movies or just the first one that is better than twilight

[@chasebriscoefan14]

More like 10000000000000000000%

[@cadenpozzy2456]

this episode possibly has the new best To The Numbers bit. the slide wipes and awkward sounds coming from the mic really do it for me
