In San Cazador, California, the clumsy vampire hunter Edgar Frog is evicted from his trailer. But the best-seller writer Gwen Lieber offers him a job to destroy the head vampire DJ X that promotes worldwide raves to increase his army of undead. Lost Boys: The Thirst manages to be even worse than the last installment but also even more cheesier, Feldman acted like a grumpy old dude for half of the film, the special effects were garbage and the villains were cheesy as hell. If you loved the last film from 2008 you might enjoy this one as well, but if you did not? Stick with the original or anything else really.. (0/10)
... View MoreI'm not sure the world needed another direct-to-video Lost Boys sequel that continues the adventures of supporting characters Edgar and Alan Frog fighting the vampire scourge of SoCal. Corey Feldman returns once again as Edgar Frog, complete is his faux tough guy voice, which I think was done for comedy, but given Feldman's recent musical appearance on The Today Show, I'm not sure he's in on the joke (or maybe he's channeling Andy Kaufman). In any case, the setting has again moved and we are now in San Cazador, California, where the Frog Brothers reunite to fight a new clutch of vampires seeking to make a vampire army by staging raves across the globe. At least the first stupid sequel was slick and competent from a technical standpoint, but this one was just cheap and poorly made. "The Lost Boys" is a film that should have been left alone or have gotten a classier sequel and/or reboot. Skip this one.
... View MoreMuch better the Lost Boys: the Tribe.In fact, I'm very comfortable in saying that 'part 2' is a complete waste of time. THIS is the one true sequel. It's a case of the continuing adventures of the Frog Brothers with mentions, flashbacks, and tie-ins to the original movie.For a vampire movie, the plot is quite serviceable,(though more random nudity then necessary) and picks up the story where the first one leaves off. Part 2 is only tangentially mentioned, and is completely skipable.The acting is not fantastic. However, that is also standard for movies like this. While never Oscar worthy... it was certainly fun.
... View MoreSorry Corey Feldman just doesn't do it for me. He might have possibilities in other movies, but this movie certainly did not help his career. A washed up, child star gone bad. I guess if you are into the vampire craze Lost Boys: The Thirst might turn you on, but probably not. He pretty much growls through the movie. I would NOT waste your time watching this movie. I made it through about 20 minutes of the film and was NOT impressed. The current score of 5.4 is very generous for this movie. I think a score of 1, maybe 2 might be more appropriate. Save your money, don't go see this film, do NOT rent it. There are plenty of other movies to keep you entertained these day.
