This harks back to my childhood and I'm not Jonathan Harking " vampire humor" the twist at the end is great, and the soundtrack. Fun fact seeing this at 7 Holy water was always around. The frog 🐸 brother were always a jump away. Best vampire movie..but Bella Legosi in Universal 1931 "Dracula" was pretty epic. Twilight nope 🙅🏻 "Interview with a Vampire" great. Bram Stokers "Dracula" okay

[@Ironlantern723]

@@OfficialMediaKnightsIt was actually supposed to be Santa Cruz, but sometime before released the city got cold feet because they were worried people might actually think it was the Murder Capital of the World, so they renamed the city Santa Carla.

In some tales, vampires are able to "glamour" humans by making them see what they want or by forgetting things. I loved that you watched this guys, your reaction was great. The mum in this is so sweet and kind and the grandpa is the GOAT! Kiefer Sutherland is mesmerizing in this role.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Yess exactly!! We LOVED this movie, and as you said, mom is the sweetest and Gramps is the GOAT!

Yeah it's actually from the original tale. Dracula inspired the majority Vampire stories as far as glamouring goes.

The Lost Boys represent orphans adopted by Max after their father drowned at sea chasing a would-be mother, Max's ex wife who also drowned. Watch 'Overboard' with Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, plenty of clues linking the four boys to the vampire lore. Not to mention...'Fright Night' icon vampire killer Peter Vincent enjoying retirement as the yacht crew head manservant...

My friends and I watched Labyrinth, Hairspray (1988) & The Lost Boys countless times as pre-teens. The Lost Boys was the most fun to watch because it had enough hot guys that we didn’t have to fight over who would get to marry David Bowie’s Goblin King 😆 Great reaction to a major blast from the past.

[@dolleyes5062]

Another great reaction! "The Lost Boys" is one of the best vampire movies ever, one of the best 80s movies ever & BY FAR the best movie the 2 Coreys Haim & Feldman, have ever made. Jason Patric, Keifer Sutherland & the Lost Boys were not only gorgeous, they also had the best vampire hair ever! Did any vampires own hair salons in Santa Carla? 🤔🙃😉 As hot as MOST of the vampires were & as cool as the Frog Brothers were, the best character in the movie was Grandpa, who was not only a badass, he also had the best line: "One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach: all the damn vampires." Iconic! Another great movie with Kiefer Sutherland is "A Few Good Men." Kiefer's role was small but crucial. Thanks again! 🧛🦇🩸

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Thank you for watching this with us! That last line as the screen fades to black got us good! Adding your suggestion to our list ❤️

[@dolleyes5062]

​​@@OfficialMediaKnightsThanks for the kindness! Grandpa is another vampire movie trope: the "lunatic" who knew the truth all along. However, I did miss your response to one of the best lines: "Wait 'til Mom finds out!" Fun Fact: Jami Gertz, who played Star, said that director Joel Schumacher didn't show her in full vamp mode because he didn't think that girls should kill. If I were playing a vampire, I'd want the full treatment, fangs & all! 🦇🩸 Other suggestions: "Fright Night (1985 version)," "Fright Night 2," "Near Dark," "Once Bitten," "Vamp" & "From Dusk Till Dawn," which stars George Clooney, was written by Quentin Tarantino & directed by Robert Rodriguez.

Effective immortality, fortitude, potence, celerity, flight, and perpetually great hair. Being a vampire certainly has its allure. 😉

I first saw this movie in 1989ish. I was 8 or 9 years old. It wasn’t until I was roughly 40 years old where I realized the “Grandpa” was the Van Helsing character. The taxidermy isn’t showing he’s an odd guy…it’s showing he’s a natural born hunter…very clever movie, and underrated

[@thomasbeauchamp3781]

This was filmed in Santa Cruz, California where I live. The monk during the People are Strange montage used to ride the bus with me.

[@rickymoranjr9609]

the makeup they used to make people look like vampires was perfect, especially the contact lenses and fangs

[@erindiazmclaughlin]

Apparently, the contact lenses were so painful for the actors that they could only wear them for 3-5 mins a time. Then their eyes would be all messed up for a day. But I agree with you. The aesthetic is great.

[@shellchoke427]

What a nice coincidence - I just watched The Lost Boys a few days ago! As a kid of the 80s, I managed to watch it back then. It's one of those movies I love to return to from time to time, not only because it scratches that nostalgia-itch, but it's a great movie all on its own. Love it!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Good timing! We agree! This movie is a great watch and it gave us a glimpse of what being a teenager in the 80s looked like!

[@Ravenwind999]

I absolutely LOVE this movie! I never get tired of watching it!!!!! And if no one else haven't already said so a thousand times, Grandpa turned out to be a former vampire hunter. That's why he was so knowledgeable (remember how he looked at Max when he was at the door asking to be "invited" in?) , knew how to make stakes and of course, kill the head vampire at the end. But, he obviously had to stop hunting because of his age. Team Grandpa! 😁

[@mokefish8126]

Such a fun classic! I can't believe you guys didn't remark on oily sax man though! He's an 80's icon! As film makers with an amazing eye for detail, you should consider watching "Let the Right One In". I know you'd both love it!

When I was 23, my Pop came to my room to ask me if I wanted to see Donald Sutherland's kid play a vampire. Sure, I said. For the next hour and a half, my tongue's hanging out a foot. I have made it my life's work to see everything young Sutherland puts to film and I'm never disappointed. He is the greatest actor of our time. Go beyond the big hits. Look for "Dark City". "Phone Booth". "Last Light" with Forest Whitaker (must see) or "Eye For An Eye" with Sally Field. You won't sleep. This was great fun watching this with you two! So glad you enjoyed it!

[@derekfnord]

42:45 - They did try other ways to catch Max besides just garlic. They also threw holy water on him and shoved a mirror in his face to try and catch him not reflecting. But those things didn't work because Michael had invited him in...

[@tinocontreras5105]

I didn't get that though. Didn't Grandpa have to be the one to invite him in. Thought the owner of the house had to invite the vampire in

[@xevious21]

Fun fact: The movie is called The Lost Boys because the original first draft/idea for it was to make a twisted version of Peter Pan. Where Peter Pan and the Lost Boys were immortal because they where vampires. After several rewrites, Peter Pan was dropped, but The Lost Boys name stuck.

Lost Boys. Top Gun. Dirty Dancing. Highlander. Soundtrack. Soundtrack. Soundtrack. That defines '80s movies unlike modern movies. Those choose scores over songs. '80s had killer scores, too, with Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Conan the Barbarian, but we didn't put those scores in our cassette players and blast it as we cruised on road trips

[@poguemom3]

I’d like to add Say Anything. 80s soundtracks were so good! I had a huge collection of them.

[@shannonpage6665]

When this movie came out my older brother, Michael and I were of similar age to the brothers and I at times could totally believe my brother was a vampire!😂 Another reason why I love this movie was the Aussie musicians INXS and Jimmy Barnes featuring pretty strongly in the soundtrack, which was very rare at the time. All the characters are great, but Grandpa was the star for me, and delivers one of my favourite closing lines. Thanks for the great reaction.

[@mercedesnadason7199]

This movie came out when I was fifteen and I was obsessed with it! It's what started my years-long love of vampires. Another great one from the same year is Near Dark. It has Bill Paxton, Lance Henrikson, and Jenette Goldstein and is definitely worth checking out.

[@JessieCristo]

The grandpa's words at the end about "...all the damn vampires." was to imply that there were more in Santa Clara, and not just Max and his Lost Boys. That's why the mom and her boys had that shocked look on their faces.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

That would mean there are more head/lead vampires out there turning people and recruiting. That is a terrifying thought!

[@fighterx9840]

I never thought about that before, that's pretty scary indeed

[@JessieCristo]

@@OfficialMediaKnights My theory was that Max just happened to be the oldest and most powerful in town. Now maybe another will step up. There is a Lost Boys 2 but I never got to watch it. Plus, I've heard some bad reviews for it, so in an effort to maintain my love for the original movie I refused to watch part 2.

[@JessieCristo]

@@OfficialMediaKnights Another GREAT 80s iconic cult classic you need to check out is a movie called Night Breed, starring Craig Sheffer. I think you two would really love it.

[@fireidar]

@@JessieCristo That explains what happened in 2. I used to own a copy. It was an ok movie, but not as good as one even though it WAS a sequel (but only had two of the original cast-Edgar and Alan). I would still have it if it wasn't for the fact I leant it to my then-friend who was also an Lost Boys Fan-and never got it back. I've been trying to find another copy to buy, but all I can find is this one and the remake.

The little brother is Corey Haim. Unfortunately he passed away back in 2010 after a long battle of drug abuse and pneumonia. He was a great actor 😢 who didn’t realize his potential and addiction got the best of him. Him and Corey Feldman, one of the other boys in the movie were best friends in life also.

[@NovaNation-u2k]

He didn't have a chance to realize his potential. IYKYK.

[@erindiazmclaughlin]

He knew his potential. He just got messed with as a kid, which led to addiction. I never know what I can type in the comments. One must be careful about the words used. But you can look up Corey Haim and Corey Feldman to find the story.

[@rickymoranjr9609]

Keifer Sutherland's character in this movie was a total boss even though he wasn't the head-vampire, he played a pretty good villain even as a vampire biker/bad boy

The first time I saw this was shortly after it come out on vhs. I was around 12 when we rented it. The tape was messed up though, and every time Max said, "it's so much easier if you don't fight," the tape would automatically start rewinding. It was very frustrating and took some finagling to finally see the last 2 minutes of the movie.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Ah man! That sounds terrible! It's the equivalent of when the streaming service won't stop buffering nowadays 😂

[@starbrand3726]

You have to understand that when this movie first came out, vampires were NOT cool, they were monsters. This is the first movie to make vampires cool, sexy, and desirable. It singlehandedly changed the vampire genre forever. Fun Fact: For years after the movie's release, fans speculated that David didn't die. First off, David was impaled with antlers not wood. Secondly, he didn't explode or implode or dissolve.

Surprised no one thought to allegorize juvenile delinquency or lost youth using vampirism before this. The classical vampire archetype is both a challenge to accepted mores (ie. sexual, class systems, politics) but all eventually are consumed by the "shadow" personality that is summoned to achieve it. All vampire stories seem to need both "light" and "dark" versions, like this story. Whomever put this together knew what they were doing.

We saw this back in '87, I don't remember if it was at the theater or once it hit cable. We were somewhat regulars in Santa Cruz which is where most of this film was shot, even some of the rides in the movie on the boardwalk we rode, it was a little weird seeing those areas we visited in a movie. lol This movie still holds up all these years later. Jason Patric was about as close to a Jim Morrison look-alike as you could get, part of the reason why you kept seeing close-ups of the two, including the side by side shot. Dude had very similar facial features, all they had to do was do his hair differently. Anyway, great reaction as always you two, glad you enjoyed it.

I had already been into Stand By Me and The Goonies for a while at that point and was a die hard Buffy fan so I instantly became obsessed with this movie 🤣 I’m from a small village in Scotland and so seeing the scenery in this movie was just crazy to me, I’m so jealous of anyone who lives where this movie was filmed especially if they got to be there in the 80s. Still to this day my favourite movie of all time. It’s just a vibe from the moment it starts and I love anything 80s. I love everything about this movie and it’s endlessly quotable.

You guys are growing to be my favorites. And I just love this movie more and more I watch it and the older I get. I was born in 2000. And I love the 80s. Definitely my favorite when it comes to movies and music. Love you 2! ❤❤❤

[@Poss1]

Whee! Good job! Hope it sticks. Thanks again for the extra work.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Offf we did it 😂😂 thank you for bearing with us, hope you enjoy!! 😊

[@dragonray9450]

This was great fun hanging out at the movie theater with my friends watching movies like this and other 80's horror and action movies.

[@esclad]

One of the best movie soundtracks of the 80s. I had the privilege to see it at the cinema on original release, I was 12 :) Easily re-watchable.

[@janaythanwhite6090]

Love Y'all reactions and intelligent conversations between you two. Love watching with you 💯🌍

[@mikelundquist4596]

Fun fact #17 - the sax player, Tim Cappello, also played with Tina Turner.

Keeping up with the gang on bikes and him drinking from the sacred bottle is reminiscent of how I became part of my motorcycle club

[@philipem1000]

This has always been one of my favorite movies, I saw it when it came out. There is a very interesting story about the actor who did the younger brother, Corey Haim and one of the Frog Brothers, Corey Feldman; they were both prominent childhood victims of Hollywood. As adults A&E I think did a semi-reality show about their relationship called The Two Corey's. Corey Haim was a recovering addict but died at 38 of heart failure and pneumonia that may have been exacerbated by drug use. He was big in the 80's and you should consider watching his amazing performance in Lucas (my favorite), Silver Bullet, Murphy's Romance, License to Drive and Dream a Little Dream. But this is the movie that made him big. Cory Feldman is best known I think for his role in Stand By Me with River Phoenix (that role had originally been offered to Haim) Wil Wheaton, and Jerry O'Connell as well as Keifer Sutherland if you've not reacted to that you DEFINITELY should it is truly a classic coming of age film; one of the best ever, and written by Steven King.

Before vampires went all sparkley Classic movie Love the granddad's car horn all out of tune

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

He was the real MVP there at the end!

[@copperhopperwarren4788]

Had a goid giggle in the very beginning when you mentioned that it looked like Santa Cruz, 'cause it IS Santa Cruz ...😂😂😂 even the train trestle is still there...

[@joehohmann6015]

Still remember seeing this in the movies. So f'n cool at the time and it still holds up today. I wish they would re release good movies like this again to see in the theatres on the big screen.

[@lupejuni]

You guys are great. I enjoy the excitement and back and forth between you two. Your commentary is exceptional. This is like I'm watching movies with my friends. Keep up the good job.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Thank you! When we both got into films the way we did we were always on the lookout for people that were as passionate as we are about these amazing stories. Sharing these with all of you allows us to engage in meaningful conversations about these amazing movies. We're glad we get to know and make so many friends that love films ❤️

[@dalevintage]

This soundtrack was permanently in my Walkman that year this brilliant movie came out! It's still one of THE BEST movie soundtracks of ALL TIME! It perfectly fits the film and captures the vibe of it as well! It's an instant classic!! ❤️🎬👍

[@solomoon3083]

How did you guys get through the sinewy jazz man scene without cracking up?!! Hahaha. I grew up with these films, and I think I even laughed way back then. Hehehehe. It’s INSANE! This is a true classic.

[@AbeVicious]

Tim Cappello is a beast. Still touring.

[@solomoon3083]

@@AbeVicious Hahahhaha. Oh my gosh. Is he??? I’m about to binge everything he has EVER DONE!

[@AbeVicious]

@solomoon3083 from what I last heard, yes. He was even in season 2 of Reservation Dogs on Hulu.

[@solomoon3083]

@@AbeVicious WHAT?!!! I love that show! I’ve watched it all. MUST. GO. BACK! Hehehehehe. That dude is a legend. Hilarious or not!

[@AbeVicious]

@solomoon3083 he was only at the end of an episode playing the same song from The Lost Boys

[@barrymoreblue]

I love that the boys were named Edgar and Alan, like a nod to Poe. Lol My only thing is why the grandfather would move his daughter and grandchildren to a town that he knows is infested with vampires who are killing people and kids. If you overlook that, though, it’s a fun movie.

[@ginewbenton]

The Santa Carla beach, and amusement park is Santa Cruz, but they couldn’t use the name in the movie. But you may have also seen it recently in US to which Jordan peel he homage to the lost boys by using it as well

[@toddjohnson5176]

The Lost Boys is a absolute classic. The cast was amazing and the story was original and unlike all the other Vampire tales we're used to. Your reaction show was awesome! This was by far the best Lost Boys reaction I've seen. You guys are dope!!😎👍🏽👍🏽

[@rbrtck]

I watched this movie when it was released, and even back then, it seemed like very much a time capsule of the era in which it was made. Naturally, as a result, watching it now is always very nostalgic for me, since I grew up during the 1980s, but like I said, there was some self-awareness of this at the time, and people back then loved that about it already.

[@treshawnathomas]

My first introduction to vampire movies was this movie, had all their posters on my wall in my childhood days. And had crushed hard on the Lost boys. Ever since then being addicted to vampire movies

[@JamesMLeggatJrP2E]

The film is an adaptation of the Peter Man mythos. Max is Pan, the Mom Wendy. Star is Tiger Lilly. The Brothers of Wendy (Michael and John) are Michael and Sam here. Nanook replaces Nana the St. Bernard. And Grandpa is a combination of Hook and Smee. Director Joel Schumacher said it was one of his favorite films of his career. And yes, I saw it in theaters, bought the soundtrack, the poster, then the vhs, the dvd and finally the blu-ray.

[@TheKurgan]

I was 17 when The Lost Boys was released & it remains one of my favourite films. Still watch it regularly and the soundtrack sounds as good as ever. Actually picked up the soundtrack on red (what else??) vinyl a couple of years ago to add to the cassette and cd copies from way back. There were a couple of sequels to the film released in 2008 & 2010 or thereabouts but unfortunately are not nearly as good and were straight to dvd as far as I remember. Loved this reaction, thank you.

[@Warlord2029]

This is such great film glad you guys reacted to it. I remember watching this movie in the cinema. Dad was more obsessed about this film more than me!))

[@tree6787]

I love this movie! It is one of my favorite vampire movies. My sister used to tease me all the time cuz I was obsessed with the saxophone player! 😅😂🤣

[@richtifilmpalast5373]

YEAH''!!! I freakin' LOVE the Lost Boys! First time I've watched I was waaaay too young, but I nevertheless fell in love with it immediately 😀 Looking so forward to watch it with you now. And I'm sure you'll love it, too. And if you do, you should definitively give "Near Dark" a shot too. The other often overlooked cult vampire flick from that area

[@BrianSmithNow]

Glad you enjoyed. This is one of my favorites. I was 10 when it came out and made me a vampire and soundtrack fan.
