5 Things I Didn't Know About The Lost Boys

In this short I take a look at 5 things that I didn't know about the 1987 movie, The Lost Boys.

Living In The Past is a channel about revisiting pop culture from the past. Hosted by Jeremy Scott and Devin Kleffer (along with Carl the Intern), these two (three) friends can’t help but revisit the movies and TV shows that they loved from their younger years. Come along and get a little nostalgic with us as we look back, enjoy, and ask the important question: is it still OK to like this stuff?

One thing i never could stomach of all the damn vampires....mayby theres some story of grandpas in them words hes trying to tell you.

I'm glad that ending scene was never filmed. The ending shot of the refrigerator door closing and leaving the characters silhouetted in darkness as People Are Strange started playing again just after the grandfather delivers the best line of the movie was perfect.

Wow! I was 7 years old when I first saw this. 37 years later, it's still arguably one of the top 5, definitely top 10 vampire movies ever made.

Had the pleasure of working at the Boardwalk the summer they filmed the movie. I spent many nights (they filmed overnight most of the time) making my mom mad for coming home at 3am or so.. Most excellent soundtrack!

No one's going to mention Tim Cappello who the storyline called the believer he has a pendant around his neck with the chain that protects him from vampires. What they don't tell you is a lot of people know about the vampires there. If you can remember the grandfather at the end. Even the Frog Brothers knew about existing vampires

Best film best sound track best decade

I adore the fact that they aged up the cast. It sort of creates the genre of urban, modern vampires that dominated the 90s and early 2000s and even today. Not every vampire is an ancient warlord or a count, some are party animals who swarm the cities like sharks.

I read somewhere a few years ago that grandpa could also be a vampire, he goes out at night and kills animals and stuffs them, he wears sunglasses during the day, he knew about the vampires and clearly had issues with max he also made it clear that the bottles on the bottom self were his, some therories think this was blood. Pretty cool if true.

Grandpa's ending words are epic!!

[JoseSuarez-riro]

Corey Haim and Corey Feldman were on drugs at the age of 13 that's sad.

[nixsis]

Another part you probably missed is at the beginning, the lost boys walk on to the carousel in reverse order of their deaths.

Figure skater Christopher Bowman doubled for one of the vampire boys. RIP Christopher.

[ryanross]

I can't believe they haven't done a prequel with Grandpa slaying vampires and rizzing widows in the 60's.

[kyleblindell]

I loved the ending when it basically revealed grandpa let his daughter an 2 grandsons move there knowing the whole time it had a bad vampire infestation😂😂😂

[cyberknife]

Saw the movie last night in Santa Cruz with my wife and kids!! What a awesome
Father’s Day gift!!
