The Lost Boys (1987)

Join the Born to Watch team as we discuss the 1987 bat pack vampire flick The Lost Boys. Starring Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, the two Coreys, Jamie Gertz and Dianne Weist, The Lost Boys was on serious rotation in the late 80's for us. This is the movie that brought vampires into the mainstream and may have made you question if you wanted to join the undead.
Episode 14 - Sometimes a movie comes along and defines a generation, The Lost Boys could be just that movie. Released in 1987 this movie broke the mould of more traditional vampire films. With a great ensemble cast led by Kiefer Sutherland, he is joined by Corey Haim, Corey Feldman, Jamie Gertz, and Dianne Weist for a fun and often scary vampire romp.
The Lost Boys grossed over $32 million on its release against a budget of $8.5 million and grew to become a cult classic that is loved by many around the world still today.
The boys give the BTW treatment to The Lost Boys and answer some of the big questions like:
1. Are the Vampires realistic enough for Gow?
2. Why did Jason Patric make Speed 2?
3. Did Dan forget to write a Stan Bush Kick Arse Song?

This was a fun episode about a movie that just exploded when we were growing up. The soundtrack is second to none with Australia's own INXS featuring heavily.
