Rachael MurphyThe lost Boys - The tribe

The original lost boys movie is one of my favourite films of all time so when they made a sequel I ignored the crappy reveiw from those I precieved not to be real fans and went out and rented it anyway. The only word I can use to describe my reaction was disapointed. There was the look of the lost boys but they just brought it up ten years used the same basic story line and ignored the massive plot holes. Edgar Frog(CoryFeldman)"We need to find out where the vampire live," Chris(Tad Hilgenbrink)" Ok I will become a vampire and find that out for you" Edgar" Great just pop over to their place and do that" It s hard to miss the lack of real passion in this movie. It is like they decided to make it but got bored half way through and just rushed to finsh it off.
I feel like I am just being harsh now but I don't know if it is unduly so. I am a fan of vampire movies great and small so ti takes a lot for me to not like one and in this case it took a lot for me to sit through the whole thing,
I had read a lot about it before it came out and I was still excited at that stage. They even said that Cory Haim was going to be in it too which I thought was interesting. It could have been the same town ten years on and this is how things went but that is not what happens. They did in fact shoot a scene with Cory Haim which you can veiw on the alternative endings in the DVD's extras section. It looks like a a build up for a lost boys three but I guess they ditched that idea when they realised that nobody would watch that movie.
