Subject: I just bought "The Lost Boys" on DVD

Written By: Triviamom on 08/24/05 at 8:49 pm

I just got it at Blockbuster for $15. Waiting for the youngsters to fall asleep so I can watch it in peace & quiet. I picked up Fried Green Tomatoes, also.

I just got it at Blockbuster for $15. I picked up Fried Green Tomatoes, also.I loved that movie when it was released. It was like the Interview with a Vampire of its time... without the interview, of course. :P I just can't get over your weird choice of snacks. ;)

I haven't seen it since the early 90s. Has it withstood the test of time? If it has, I might snag myself a copy, too. :)

As a matter of fact, I just picked up a copy of the poster for $1 on clearence at Hot Topic.

A dollar well spent.

Actually i only have the original VHS ex-rental release of it which i've had for god knows how many years now. I don't bother with DVD versions of movies because they're a dime a dozen & you can find them everywhere, even your local Wallmart etc. The ex-rentals released on the original release date are far more collectible & more valuble to me. You're right though, it stands the test of time, not that that matters since i looooove & prefere movies that look really dated & very 80s. How can you go wrong with this movie though, top film all the way. "Your eating maggots Micheal" LOL. "My own brother a sheesh suckin vampire, wait till mom hears about this" LOL

Kiefer Sutherland played such a great villian in Stand By Me aswell,which also had Correy Feldman in it. Another top 80s flick & one of my all time favourites, absolutly brilliant. I don't really like the show 24, but i'll admit he's a fine actor. He was also great in Young Guns 1 & 2 also two great 80s films. Well tecnically i think part 2 was 1990, correct me if i'm wrong. Maybe 89 for theatres 90 for VHS, i can't remember now.

Actually now that i think of it we got to see Stand By Me at school as a treat as well as Explorers, Indiana Jones & The Temple Of Doom & i think Boy Who Could Fly aswell. All on seperate ocassions ofcourse. To be honest i couldn't believe they allowed us to watch the Indiana Jones one because of that scene with the guy getting his heart ripped out, but i thought it was totally cool though.

I wonder how that will turn out.  Vampires seem to have undying popularity in pop culture (pun intended).

The author of the article doesn't think it's likely because of how the movie ended, but I think it would be nice to see someone from the original cast make a cameo.
