"The Lost Boys" is a beloved 1987 film that takes place in the small town of Santa Carla. Two teenage brothers, Michael and Sam, discover that the town is under the influence of a biker gang led by the charismatic vampire, David. As Michael gets drawn into the gang, he undergoes a transformation into a vampire after drinking a bottle of blood, with the change becoming permanent upon his first kill.

In order to reclaim his humanity, Michael, Sam, and their group of friends embark on a mission to locate and eliminate the head vampire responsible for their predicament. Along the way, they encounter a blend of horror and comedy, all set against the backdrop of the cool and cheesy 1980s atmosphere. The film's memorable elements include a captivating soundtrack and surprising moments, like an oiled saxophone player, which have contributed to its cult status.

"The Lost Boys" stands out for its unique combination of teenage coming-of-age themes, homoerotic vampire allure, and an appealing mix of horror and humor. The film's enduring popularity can be attributed to its distinct '80s charm and its ability to provide both entertainment and a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
