The Case of The Lost Boys (1987)

In the summer of 1987, movie-goers were exposed to one of the most popular horror comedies of all time: Joel Schumacher’s The Lost Boys. This frightening–yet sometimes goofy–romp introduced the idea of a teenage gang of vampires, living it up and having the time of their (after) lives. Much like the famed Dracula, they live in a dark and unkempt lair, surrounded by all that pleases them. 
The Lost Boys continues to be a hit with audiences over 35 years after its release. The film is often referenced in popular media, and celebrated for its take on the horror genre. So let’s join in on the fun! Ride with us to Santa Carla, California, the supposed murder capital of the world (according to some spray paint on a billboard). We’ll sleep all day and party all night, and learn about how fun it is to be a vampire!In the summer of 1987, movie-goers were exposed to one of the most popular horror comedies of all time: Joel Schumacher’s The Lost Boys.
