Copied and Pasted from Zombiekeeper...

From Bloody Disgusting:

Dark Horizons reports, "Gregory Cannon talked with Sight + Sound magazine about the current status of the sequel to Joel Schumacher's classic 80's horror flick: "They've been talking about it for years, and I think it's only recently that Joel decided he'd take a back seat and just produce on it. One idea was to have the whole cast all female, another was to be a prequel, but I think the one we're going ahead with is the straight sequel. I think that's what fans would want most". Will they replace any of the old actors? "No why? How's it going to look if Corey Haim suddenly doesn't look like Corey Haim, or Feldman's not Feldman. That's who you mean isn't it?"

Sounds like just rumours to me, this is the first I've ever heard about it, but then again, if it has a hint of truth to it, that's be great. [Smile]

Devolution here,

Sorry guys, but leave well enough alone, that window was closed sometime back in 92. It just seems like 10 bucks that I will never spend.

We are DEVO

2 Things - Joel Schumacher?

Wasn't the original bad enough ? (seem to be in a huge minority as regards 'The Lost Boys' [Smile] )

I loved the Lost Boys, what was wrong with it? It was a great movie. They should have done a sequel soon after, not now, it's too late. But, they could make another movie with the same concept, which they probably have done, but ruined it with too much computer generated effect crap.

The Lost Boys dosent need a sequel. It's audience was satisfied with what they already saw. A sequel is like dragging out the ending of a really good movie and taking it nowhere but down. It takes away from the climax of the first. Very few sequels work because they have a story to tell. To me the Lost Boys story is done and i'm fine with that.

i thought lost boys was fine. just out of curiosity, what did you not like about it?

and i agree that a sequel is unnecessary. it was rumored, so take it for what it is...a rumor.

Lost Boys is one of the best movies to come out of the 80's! What's not to like? The soundtrack was completely awesome aswell. The sequel sounds like a terrible idea!!! It just would never measure up w/out the original cast! Chrimity, Hollywood is on a real originality streak lately!lol.

Tootles! [Wink]

Ronnie,
saw it during an all-day/night horror festival when it first came out. It had the misfortune of being on the same bill as 'Near Dark' and, I think, Carpenter's 'Prince of Darkness'. It didn't compete. I like my vampire flicks bloody...
It's around here where I go into a rant all style/no substance etc. etc. [Smile]

I love love love it,but feel no need for a sequal. It was perfect as it was,it told its tale in 2 hours or less,and had a rockin soundtrack. They are never going to find 2 faces as perfect as young Kiefer Sutherland and Jason Patricks...leave it alone.

Cory Haim will have a little more money for drugs then.

oooo...harsh!

I thought it was bloody- the scene where they attack the group of biker/party people by the fire, that freaked me out-that was creepy-I can't watch it. The old Black and White Dracula did and still does scare the heck out of me. I thought that was more creepy than stuff out today.

I would love to see Corey Haim doing more movies, or at least happy- and not hear the drug stories, and how they went bankrupt and lost everything, that is sad. They have so much talent to be living on the streets.

Look at what happens to celebrities, it has too be such tremendous pressure, that we can not even grasp it.
 
Posted by kenkobra (Member # 892) on :
 
This is due out next week on DVD. Anyone else plan on picking this up?
 
Posted by NowhereGirl (Member # 465) on :
 
haha wow, you dug up this old thread.. and look what happened.. they actually did make it! [Smile]

i don't know... i'm undecided as to whether or not i will attempt to watch it.
what do you guys think?
 
Posted by mamamiasweetpeaches (Member # 1715) on :
 
I dont think Im gonna watch it.

UNLESS.....a whole horde of you guys come back and say "Wow! It was awesome!" and then I MIGHT.
 
Posted by Nada (Member # 3045) on :
 
The original Lost Boys is one of my absolute favorite movies! That being said, I'm skipping number 2. Whenever they make sequels\remakes of classic 80's movies nowadays, they never have the same magic as the original.
Although it would be cool to see the Frog Brothers again.... Feld-Dogg's always been around, but it's nice to see Jamison Newlander back. I'm probably in the minority on this one, but he was always my fave of the 2 brothers. Loved those toughguy faces!

I have to watch it just out of curiosity.
 
Posted by missalexis89 (Member # 7123) on :

What language are you speaking? "nd" "defo"

Just curious...
 
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
 
I think "nd" is "and" and "defo" is "definitely." Am I correct?

I have to see it, good, bad or otherwise. It's horror, and I love horror. I'll either buy it or watch it on PPV, not sure which one yet.

Wow Ronnie, it is totally nostalgic to see a thread that you started way back in 2003 come to fruition. Awesome to see some of the names on your thread from back then...Samurai Sweetie, Devo, Banshee, Ali_with_an_i, mamamiasweetpeaches, goonie_girl, Isis, kenkobra and the young, but incredibly edgy RiverPhoenix4life. (Does anyone know what happened to that girl? She is probably graduated from college by now)

OK, back to the Lost Boys II. I've never been a fan of sequels especially ones made years later, but I'll rent this DVD when it comes out. Ronnie, I wish they had gone with the whole female cast thing that you mentioned instead.

Also, I've been watching the trainwreck that is the Two Coreys and I'm just sitting is shock as I watch Corey Haim as he continues his spiraling fall from greatness. Corey Feldman is still annoying, but who would have thought he would be the more together of the two Coreys now?

pettyfan, I'm like you, good or bad, I have to see it. You love horror...give me some hidden gems from the 80's. I'm more into the comedy horror like "Night of the Comet" and "Night of the Creeps" to name a couple.

Yeah, I figured it was. The whole "text messaging" speak can be a bit annoying to read. Not to insult anyone. Really. [Razz]
 
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
 
Did anyone watch the Two Coreys last night, it was the actual trainwreck and it unfortunately occurred on the set of Lost Boys II? Sad stuff.
 
Posted by ISIS (Member # 1780) on :
 
I didn't even realize that Corey Haim was even in this sequel...I thought how can they do a sequel without him ...I just looked up the You Tube clip of him freaking out....

Has anyone seen the new movie to see how it turned out with his part?

That's also sad...that his character in the first Lost Boys was such a clean cut, cute young boy...and now look what happened to him.

Corey Feldman was in that You Tube Clip, and they had him with the same hairdo and same camo outfit, and headband ,he was wearing in the first one...he almost looked exactly the same.

I recorded it to watch tonight... So, did they not both appear in the sequel?
 
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :

um...i believe it's the end of this month.. most likely on a tuesday - which is always new release day.
 
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
 
Thanks Ronnie aka NowhereGirl, I just found the offical site with cool trailer....July 29th everyone!

Lost Boys: The Tribe

I'm Edgar Frog, surfboard shaper and vampire hunter.
 
Posted by jdocster04 (Member # 5752) on :
 
Yeah, I watched it last night. Looks like Haim blew it agin. He is still credited on the Lost Boys The Tribe movie on http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1031254/

I assume he's in it?

I think it will be interesting to watch.
 
Posted by TheResurrection (Member # 2326) on :
 
Well I watched this the other day - yikes not so good, the lead vampire and the other male lead were just horrible actors - Feldman had some good one liners though. Definitely you're not missing anything if you decide to make like it never happened (probably the best recommendation).

So, was Haim in it at all?
 
Posted by maddog (Member # 7131) on :
 
does anyone know when the lost boys sequel is supost to be on dvd ?
 
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
 
Hey maddog, the July 29th release date is the DVD release date. I'm pretty sure this is a direct to video release.
 
Posted by TheResurrection (Member # 2326) on :
 
Haim showed up in the end credits - nothing to write home about.
 
Posted by jdocster04 (Member # 5752) on :
 
He was in the credits but not the movie? Weird. I guess he really did blow it.

Thanks...

I love this movie. I think it's one you either love or hate. I was mesmerized by Star, which might explain why I've dated a few girls that wear gypsy clothes and have really long, full, curly hair. I love the soundtrack too. Even boinked to it. Anyway, I've heard about the sequel for years. I did see a clip of Corey and Corey where Feldman accepted the role to be in the sequel, but Haim was not welcome to return. So, I think eventually this will happen. I've read that the original idea was to make it a group of female vampires. As long as they don't lose the spirit of the first film, I'm all for it. A gang of badgirl vampires sounds hot. Please make at least one look like Star.
