The Lost Boys (1987)
Directed by Joel Schumacher
4.2/5INSTINCT "MINDY"97 minQuick Hit
The Lost Boys feels like a teen-horror rush—fun, stylish, with atmosphere doing half the killing.
Full Take
The Lost Boys leans hard into teen horror energy, and Joel Schumacher keeps the tone fun without letting the movie drift. It balances style and ugliness the right way, letting the mood get under your skin before the worst of it lands. The rough edges are part of the charm.

I actually agree with this take. It’s not perfect but it definitely delivers in key moments.

There’s a lot to like here, but also a lot that holds it back from being great.
I’m in the middle on this one. There are definitely some strong moments, but also parts that didn’t fully connect.
