The Lost Boys (Two-Disc Special Edition) - Warner Home Video

The Lost Boys Dvd

As an adult I love this flick. I purchased it for my 8 year old son so we could watch it during the Halloween Holiday. He did not watch it but I think that it would have been ok for him. I know that the movie is rated "R", but I think today it would have been PG-13. There is not sexual imagery, just a little kissing, or vulgarity. There is a little blood and gore but it is very cheesy and the Frog brothers keep the mood light with funny comments.

The package was received with the product inside.
This item was given out for Xmas, so I have NO real idea if the product works or not.

This DVD Version Is Pretty Lame...

I would like to stress that I AM REVIEWING THIS PARTICULAR DVD RELEASE, NOT THE MOVIE. That's why it's getting such a low mark from me. Obviously I like the movie, otherwise I wouldn't have bought it. However, I was very disappointed with this DVD's menu options and 'special features'. The menu has no 'play button'. That's right. No 'play movie' option. You can only 'select a scene' (which requires 2 clicks in order to actually start the movie from the beginning). Lame. And, the special features are nothing more than trivia 'readers'. Basically, the lamest kind of special features to have. Needless-to-say, I was very disappointed. It's a shame they didn't make a better product to preserve and honor a modern cult classic.

Old school fun!

This is an old school goodie! The Frog brothers, Jami Gertz,it's all good. I was able to have my sons watch the movie the day before Holloween. They loved it.

Great Blu-ray of a classic movie.

I could go on about the film's plot and all that other blather but with a film that's 21 years old I figure you already know that stuff. My review is for the Blu-ray disc itself. This one was done right! The transfer is beautiful! I saw things watching this version that I have never before noticed, like how the recently staked Marco's dried blood on the Frog brothers resembles sparkly fairy dust in the sunlight as they escape the cave; a nice nod to Peter Pan there. Good disc, worth adding to your Blu-ray collection.
