Starring: Jason Patric, Corey Haim, Dianne Wiest, Corey Feldman, Kiefer Sutherland
Director: Joel Schumacher
Genre(s): Horror, Comedy
"Arguably Joel Schumacher's finest film."
— Marjorie Baumgarten, Austin Chronicle
"An exhilarating hybrid of horror and suburban comedy."
— Desson Thomson, Washington Post
"The Lost Boys remains a supremely watchable example of something the '80s did right."
— Empire
"The Lost Boys is a horror movie that's funny without making fun of itself and scary without trying to make you sick."
— Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
"It laughs at the form it embraces, adds a rock-and-roll soundtrack and, if you share its serious-satiric attitude, manages to be very funny."
— Caryn James, New York Times
"Corey Haim plus Corey Feldman plus Joel Schumacher doesn't seem like a foolproof formula for a good movie, but when the three oft-maligned figures united for 1987's horror-comedy The Lost Boys, the result was briskly entertaining."
— Nathan Rabin, The A.V. Club
