A divorced mother, Lucy Emerson (Dianne Wiest), and her two teenage sons Michael (Jason Patric) and Sam (Corey Haim) move from Phoenix to live with Lucy's father in the small California town of Santa Carla (based loosely on the city of Santa Cruz, California, the film's primary filming location).Michael, Lucy's oldest son, is eventually drawn into the motorcycle gang via his attraction to Star (Jami Gertz, the only girl in the gang), and because of a rivalry with their leader, David (Kiefer Sutherland).After a sort of informal initiation ceremony with the gang involving dangerous activities such as motorcycle racing through the fog towards the top of a cliff, and hanging underneath a train bridge while a train passes, Michael drinks blood in the guise of wine after being fooled into thinking that Chinese food containers of rice and noodles were actually maggots and worms.Soon afterwards, he starts showing symptoms of vampirism: he sleeps all day, he becomes sensitive to sunlight, and his reflection is transparent.Michael spends his nights with the motorcycle gang until they reveal that they are indeed vampires when they murder a group of teenagers at a bonfire party.David explains to Michael that he must feed in order to survive, but Michael refuses to kill and leaves the gang.With the help of Star, Laddie (Chance Michael Corbitt), and his brother Sam, who has joined up with two relatively inept vampire hunters Edgar (Corey Feldman) and Alan Frog (Jamison Newlander), Michael sets out to shake his curse by finding and killing the head vampire.Sam and the Frog Brothers try to prove that Lucy's boyfriend Max (Edward Herrmann) is the leader of the vampire gang, but their tests fail.Towards the end of the movie, it turns out Max is the leader.Their vampire tests didn't work because Michael had invited Max into the house ("Don't ever invite a vampire into your house, you silly boy," Max said to Sam at the end of the movie.Rather David's death was rather 'peaceful' and involved bright white light, but also the piercing of his heart on animal antlers.This was explained by the Frog Brothers saying that no two vampires die the same.Max then reveals himself as the head vampire.Grandpa casually gets one of his root beers from the refrigerator and remarks, "One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach...Box office and critical importance

Further information: The Lost Boys (soundtrack)
Thomas Newman wrote the film score to be an eerie blend of orchestra and organ arrangement while the music soundtrack contains a number of notable songs and several covers, including "Good Times", a duet between INXS and former Cold Chisel lead singer Jimmy Barnes which reached number 1 on the Australian charts in early 1987.Tim Capello's cover of The Call's "I Still Believe" was featured in the film as well as on the soundtrack.Other Buffy connections include Kiefer Sutherland's father, Donald Sutherland, who played the role of Buffy's first Watcher, Merrick, in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer feature film.Kentsoundz produced track titled "Neverland," paying homage to the film, and closely tracking the movie's narrative.The California band Death by Stereo is named for one of Sam's lines upon executing one of the vampires in his grandfather's home."LB" is an acronym for Lost Boyz (with the z being substituted for the s).There is also a hip hop rap group associated with that gang also known as The Lost Boyz.Bloodlines, a Malkavian's choice to solve a side quest is to use the Dementation discipline to make a food critic believe he is eating maggots and another quest, a "thinblood" vampire believes that if his sire is killed, he will be "cured" of vampirism.The player character has the option of responding with the line, "You watch too many movies."Feldman interrupts, "Hey, cut that out.You already did that in The Lost Boys."Production
The amusement park scenes were filmed at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk in California.This is the same park that appeared in Brotherhood of Justice (1986) (TV) (also starring Kiefer Sutherland).Joel Schumacher hated that idea and told the producers he would only sign on if he could change them to teenagers, as he thought it would be sexier and more interesting.Keenan Wynn and John Carradine (a veteran of vampire films) were both original choices for Grandpa.Wynn died right before filming and Carradine was too ill.David' (Kiefer Sutherland) is impaled on a pair of antlers and doesn't disintegrate like the other vampires.Joel Schumacher for the job.After Richard Donner passed on directing, Mary Lambert was brought in, but left due to "creative differences".Her scenes can be viewed in the 2004 Lost Boys DVD special features.On the DVD commentary, Joel Schumacher says that it was there because he had recently directed Rob Lowe in St.See Copyrights for details.Add a link to your "Lost Boyz" fan site on VH1.Z: Habib AgeliCheck out Habib Ageli's movie page to watch
