The Lost Boys: Corey Feldman & Jamison Newlander Look Back on Vampire Film
As we approach the best season of the year — because we all know Halloween lasts all month — we’re also approaching one of the best times of the year for revisiting old classics. Whether you’re a die-hard scary movie fan or just want to say hello to some of your favorite monsters, it’s time to start pulling out the DVDs (or VHS tapes, if you’re really old school), and, if you’re anything like me, Joel Schumacher’s seminal vampire classic The Lost Boys remains at the top of the stack every year.
The 1987 film helped to define a generation of monster movies, combining the glamorous excess of the ‘80s with the classic legend of the vampire for a bone-chilling tale of adventure and suspense. Stacked to the gills with a cast that includes heavy-hitters like Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Corey Feldman, and Corey Haim, the tale of blood-sucking demons haunting the California coast is now available on 4K Ultra HD, with a host of bonus features that give audiences an even better look at the genre mainstay, and how it brought some of cinema’s most memorable vampires to life.
Collider was lucky enough to sit down with stars Feldman and Jamison Newlander, better known as the vampire-hunting Frog Brothers, to chat about the film’s rerelease as it, like its vampires, continues to live a long and healthy life. The stars’ careers span a number of iconic ‘80s classic, including The Goonies and a Friday the 13th film for Feldman and the 1988 remake of The Blob for Newlander, but The Lost Boys remains a favorite for many audiences, and during this interview, Feldman and Newlander discussed what it’s like to see the film continue to scare and entertain thirty-five years later, as well as the horror films that affected them the most, and the possibility of the pair becoming real-life monster hunters.
