Pt. 2 - "THE LOST BOYS": 17 YR. RETROSPECTIVE (2004)

"THE LOST BOYS": A RETROSPECTIVE
(2004 / Warner Bros. - Monkey Feeds The Robot / 24 mins. total)
17 year "look back" on 1987's THE LOST BOYS includes interviews with director Joel Schumacher (FLATLINERS, FALLING DOWN), producer Richard Donner, actors Kiefer Sutherland, Edward Herrmann, Cory Feldman, Corey Haim; cinematographer Michael Chapman and more. Originally intended as a "children's genre film" (it's title taken from Barrie's PETER PAN), under the influence of Schumacher, THE LOST BOYS became a seminal 80s era "young adult" social treatise - a genre variant / companion piece to LESS THAN ZERO, ST. ELMO'S FIRE and THE BREAKFAST CLUB. It would also set the thematic paradigm / matrix for future young adult genre / drama "mash ups" such as the HARRY POTTER, TWILIGHT and HUNGER GAMES series, and non-genre entries such as POINT BREAK.

Joel Schumacher you gave us a real gem and we'll be forever grateful.

[@Chocobear555]

To Corey Haim, Edward Herrmann, Barnard Hughes, and Brooke McCarter: Rest in peace.

[@nos5822]

Chocobear555 They dead. They are not resting and there not in peace.

[@slcRN1971]

Jacob Dean : maybe not pity but sadness. His inner struggle to overcome a childhood attack (he told his friend Corey Feldman that while on a movie set at age eleven, he was raped by a man) was something that he struggled with. He died of pneumonia.

The sequels are horseshit

I still always remember when I was 13 years old in 1987 seeing the commercial previews of the Lost Boys coming to theaters, and how interesting it looked to me right away. And then I saw it and was so mesmerized by it. I must have seen almost a hundred times after that and I loved the soundtrack as well. This is one excellent movie and no other vampire movie has made such an impact like The Lost Boys.

[@alanlee1355]

I hear ya. But interview with a vampire?

born in 74 same as me. I remember seeing the adverts on the bus stops in Oldham town center

I was 7 when it came out and I saw it around 12 and it was still like the goonies a goddamn cultural moment. I love it still and wish I could go back

[@Norrbottning]

For me this movie wasn't really about vampires as much as it was about rebels. I was around people, characters like the Lost Boys, in school and other places, where they tempted you to walk on the wild side. It's a miracle I'm still breathing at this point

[@tyrrany_reigns1]

I remember being very young, like around 6 or 7, when this movie came to HBO. My parents put my sister and I in bed to watch it. I snuck out and watched this movie behind the couch. I absolutely loved it and this movie began my obsession with vampire lore in general

[@Matdildi]

I was obsessed with this movie and the guys in it, especially Corey Haim😍

Rest in peace Mr. Schumacher. What a sweet, thoughtful, and creatively talented man. Thank you so much for the art you've left us.

I was around 11 or 12 when this movie came out,growing up, I remember I thought they were all so cool.

[@dannycattell8084]

Texas Spider I was 7yrs old man loved this film it's a cult classic I grew up on this. I was mad on vampires, sharks and anything horror like werewolves. American werewolf in London scared the shit outta me when I was a kid

[@Stormeyworld]

My favorite film of all time! I love this movie so much. It's a classic indeed. I love watching this type of documentary/interview stuff...it's very interesting to hear the director, producers and actors talk about filming the movie. Thank you for uploading.

[@lynn1464]

I like this too.

[@stevenroberts1330]

[@joseortiz9178]

I was in middle school when this came out and I loved it when I first saw it. It's cool to see how much people love this movie of different generations.

[@blacknbougie8021]

I'm so glad my boys are obsessed with horror like me😊I introduced them to this movie 2 yrs ago and they loved it.

[@sidearmsalpha]

Had no idea Edward Herrmann died. Bummer. I noticed IMDb listed one of his roles as Herman Munster in Here Come the Munsters in 1995. Never saw it but he definitely looked the part. I always thought he was the son of the actor who really played Herman Munster in the old show.

[@MIKEMGF]

and here we are another 17 years later watching, how time flies

[@SoficoPok]

great interviews about The lost boys. Lots of itresting information about my favourite movie and actors. Thank you

[@MezztovenShort4DannY]

I didn't understand this movie though I was born in the late late 80s great job....

[@susanmistry8047]

If you lived in Santa Cruz you'd definitely get this movie! Between the plot of lost boys and the song "people are strange" by the Doors it pretty much summed up the beach town. Sleep all day, party (murder) all night, blend into the surroundings = its fun to be a vampire in santa cruz lol

[@alanlee1355]

Lmao. These guys we're not in school. 😂

[@alyssaG1997]

Right? More like the kids who ditched or something 🤣

[@D-Fens_1632]

On the first day of 4th grade our teacher had us list stuff we did that summer. For favorite movie we saw that summer I wanted to put Lost Boys but was scared to say a rated R movie, that I'd get in trouble or my parents would or something, so I said some other dumb movie. Then the kid next to me said "The Lost Boys" and I was like "wait, no, I wanna change my answer! Lost Boys!"

[@sifugurusensei]

I know this is supposed to be a horror comedy, but I remember when I first watched it as a kid, there were some scary part. Like that dog.

[@that1pdxguy]

One of my Faves, ever. But,, I have to ask: Why? Why soooo...many "Michael's" Has to be some kind of record.

[@cclmpr]

The movie the lost boys was filmed in 1986 and released on July 31 in 1987

[@ryanh603]

Watch Lethal Weapon and pause during the scene where Riggs & Murtaugh are hanging outside the bank and you’ll see in the background of a movie theater marquee “The Lost Boys” on it. Both movies had Richard Donner involved and shot in 1986.

[@IMMORTALDIO]

it really was something

I wonder who killed him, or pulling YOUR card

[@jenniferbeatty7545]

What he doesn't know (or maybe he does!) is that this film, like most, shows the actual Truth about the World. Specifically, that there is an invisible spiritual realm and not everyone on Earth is 'human' like they are told. Most on this planet are not human...

[@AoibheannDoyle-SoulTherapist]

I agree. Wise insights

[@smokey3570]

Tell me more please 👍

[@ashleydegiorgio1564]

Was so excited when this came out cuz the original is my fav movie. The plot was kinda interesting but the acting was just AWEFUL, so bad that I laughed the whole way thru. If u take a shot of vodka every time u laugh at the stupid stuff u would be drunk 15 mins into the movie. N as for Corey Feldman, his acting is terrible no matter what movie his in except the burbs.

[@brookestarr6124]

Everybody knows this was popular because of Corey Haim, period.
