Risking everything in search of the ultimate rush is fun when you know you can't die. Angus Sutherland taking up where brother Kiefer left off in the original cult favorite is the lead vampire in this modern reimagining of The Lost Boys. The seaside village of Luna Bay is rife with outcasts and plagued by an outbreak of missing persons. AS the sun sets the Tribe rises: a group of adrenalin-fueled thrill-crazed vampires tears up the surf and the streets with nonstop action. But when a champion surfer (Tad Hilgenbrinck) and his sister (Autumn Reeser) move in dark secrets erupt into hot-blooded passion and full-blooded fear. Helping fight the forces of hell: Corey Feldman in his signature role of vampire hunter Edgar Frog. Once you join the Tribe there's no turning back.System Requirements:Running Time: 89 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR/CULT MOVIES Rating: NR UPC: 085391183785 Manufacturer No: 1000026970

 Lost Boys 2 Should stay lost... August 29, 2008
LeviDevi "Bubman" (Frankfort, KY USA)
It's amazing what some reviewers consider make a good movie, i.e. if it has a certain "star" in it, or if it's directed by someone in particular, etc. So, I guess to hell with good writing, good acting, good chemistry, and a good story. Lost Boys 2 lacks all of these qualities. The movie tries to be funny; it isn't. It tries to be scary; it isn't that, either. Corey Feldman, who reprises his original role of Edgar Frog, appears in this film. He looks older than the original Nosferatu, but I digress.
This movie is just one big old mess. We've returned to Luna Bay, CA, with a brother and sister, where vampires still have cool parties, kill lots of people, and no one notices or cares. These particular vampires just happen to be surfers. They, uh, surf a lot and eat people. That's about it. Characters are introduced for no reason except to become victims or get naked. I suppose that would suffice for 13-year old males with raging libidos, but for anyone with an average IQ, that's gonna' get old after a very short time. There is absolutely no cohesion to the story. You're given several characters that you don't care about.
The only ingratiating thing I can say about this movie was that I rented it. At least I only lost money for a rental. But I saved face by not buying this putrid t**d. Running time is 94 minutes, is rated R, and was directed by P. J. Peace.
 Great Movie! August 28, 2008

This movie was a surprise! It was actually really good. Nothing can top the original, but it is a good second piece. You should check it out!!!
 Edgar Frogg Rocks! August 28, 2008
Chichimo (CT, United States)
I knew what I was getting into going into this movie. It wasn't going to be good, but it's vampires so what the heck. The problem with this movie is that the characters were so bland you couldn't really care about them. The movie lacked the humor and the "cool" of the original. However, Corey Feldman was a treat. His appearance in this movie was pure bliss. The soundtrack was also less than memorable. Angus Sutherland's Shane was not bad, but no way was he as cool as Keifer's David. All in all in wasn't bad, but it can't touch the original.
 Not too bad for a DTV sequel. August 26, 2008

There are a lot of small references to the first film. The opening sequence looks just like the first. They even have Timmy Capello( the buff sax player) in it for a few seconds. Corey Haim's appearance was very very short as well as Jamison Newlander's. It was not too bad, but some of the death's especially Shane's were too quick. Anyway check it out. Still think the first one is the best.
A Load of Rubbish August 25, 2008

If I could rate this movie zero stars, I would. It had none of the feel of the first movie except in the few instances where Corey Feldman was on screen. While the story had some similarities to the original, it was doomed by its low budget actors and locations. If they would have spent some money and actually filmed the thing in California instead of Vancouver, it may have been somewhat palatable. No one was fooled by the stock surfing footage or the overcast skies of Southwestern BC. Angus Sutherland did not come through. He was just not eerie enough like his older half brother, Keifer Sutherland was in the first, and his quick demise at the end was ridiculous! If the writers had any sense they would have dropped the whole "lets do the same sort of story again but with better effects and some nudity" and focused on a story true Lost Boys fans (and probably a whole new generation) would have actually liked--perhaps developing one of the alternate endings which had definite potential--we all would have had a great time! Instead we get a B-rate vampire movie with the label of "Lost Boys" to get people to watch it. I would have at least enjoyed it a wee bit if they had made no association to the original movie. Save your money and buy another copy of the original.
