Idiots on Film: The Lost Boys

Join the Idiots as they discuss the 1987 Vampire film The Lost Boys with all the professionalism you have come to expect.

Released in 1987 and starring Kiefer Sutherland, Dianne Wiest, Corey Feldman, Alex Winter, and a handful of other people no one had really heard of back in the 80s, this low-budget action/horror/comedy was destined to become a cult classic. It's a brilliant mix of delightfully done horror and clever one liners all from a cast that was perfect for what this film needed. Remarkably despite being from the mid-80s, it holds up well as they relied on minimalist special effects most of the time, and well done practical effects. We can't forget the most important character though, the oiled up, shirtless saxophone player from the beach concert, Timmy Cappello.
