Sam and his older brother Michael are average, everyday teens. But after they move with their mother to peaceful Santa Clara, California, things mysteriously begin to change. Michael's not himself lately. And mom's not going to like what he's turning into.

The Lost Boys reshape's vampire tradition, deftly mixing heart-pounding terror, rib-tickling laughs and a body-gyrating rock soundtrack. Under Joel Scumacher's directions, a marvelous cast - Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman, Cory Haim, Bernard Hughes, Edward Hermann and Dianne Weist - stakes you to gleefully ghoulish entertainment.
