The Lost Boys (1987)

What better movie to review when oldening than the one that promises eternal youth for bloodshed?! This week, we review The Lost Boys, starring Jason Patric as Michael, Mike, Mikey, Mikowski. His brother, Sam, is played by the late Cory Haim, while his mother is played by Academy Award Winner, Dianne Wiest (Edward Scissorhands, Hannah and Her Sisters). Horror veteran, Corey Feldman (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Goones, Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter) plays Edgar Frog, half of Santa Carla's local vampire patrol. When Michael, Mike, Mikey, Michelangelo falls for Star, played by Jami Gertz (Sixteen Candles, Less than Zero, Solarbabies), he comes into the haunting gaze of the leader of the Lost Boys: David. David is played by Keifer Sutherland (24, Young Guns, Flatliners), who shockingly has the least lines of any major character in the film. You would never know it based on his performance. The goons tackle trivia, give the main players nicknames, and rank the film against THE PANTHEON OF SLASHERS!!!
