The Lost Boys (1987)

Turns out other important things happened in 1987 besides the birth of the author of this blog. This movie is totally awsome and I totally did not know it existed until this year! It stars like one billion celebrities: Kiefer Sutherland, both Coreys [Haim + Feldman], Jami Gertz, Edward Herrmann!, and Dianne Wiest. Star-studded, right?

Maybe everyone has seen this movie, but if not, let me explain. It's a vampire story. The people who look like punks are vampires, the normies are threatened by the vampires, and some people are conflicted. Everyone looks really foxy with their George Michael ensembles and crucifix earrings. Well, I guess the vampires didn't have those, but they did have dangley ones.

The best thing about this movie was that we saw it at Seattle's best theater: Central Cinema. For the screening each audience member received a goody bag including confetti, poppers, bubbles [to blow when Corey H. is in the bubble bath], and a kazoo [to blow when anyone in the movie says the name "Michael"]. Hint: That is a lot of times!

Also, let me tell you: this movie has one of my favorite movie theme songs:
