    Being a diehard fan of the first Lost Boys, I had high hopes about this sequel. Boy, was I wrong, this film is terrible. Where to begin? The film takes the exact same plot as the first, recycles it, and changes a few things to make this recycled plot interesting. If you've seen t... read morehe first Lost Boys, you've seen this one. Of all the horror sequels that I've seen, Lost Boys 2: The Tribe is one of the worst sequels there can be. The plot is predictable, the acting is awful, and the film is just a cash grab that milks the original's reputation. I felt that The Lost Boys was a stand alone film; the film didn't need a sequel. I can't believe that the studio went ahead and made this, as this is tone of the most uninspired films in the horror genre. Lost Boys 2 doesn't do anything interesting, and it travels the same exact road as the first film. There's nothing that will appeal to fans of the first, and watching this will make you realize that you wasted your time. The only good thing about the film was Aiden's cover of Cry Little Sister. I felt betrayed when they butchered this film. There's nothing that I hate more when a studio gets greedy and decides to make a crappy sequel to an excellent film. In the case of The Lost Boys, you get one of the worst possible sequels that you can get. Not even the Frog Brothers could save this one. If you've loved the first film, skip this one; you're not missing out, as this films takes the same story and switches the roles of the characters. Skip it, and forget that this one exists.

    Bad, bad, bad. This movie's biggest fault was that Joel Schumacher was not directing. This "Tribe" of vampires did not have the cool factor which Kiefer and his gang oozed in the original. It's an almost impossible task to recapture the magic of the 80's 20 years later; the fads ... read moreand fashions have changed drastically. The original had such a great soundtrack; but this one was forgettable noise. Corey Feldman did an awesome reprisal of his Frog brother character. The lack of Corey Haim didn't help; he only appeared for a few seconds at the end; which doesn't count. I chose not to buy this on DVD. "The Lost Girls" would've been such a better movie idea.

    This is a film I had to see, I mean, 'Lost Boys' is a classic! And the fact that a sequel has been made! Well, like I said, I had to see it.

    To follow up a film like 'lost boys' it's gonna have to be something special. When I first heard about it I thought 'It'll be just some B ... read moremovie fan film', but then I found out both Corey Feldman and Corey Haim are in it, plus the other actor that played the other Frog brother (can't remember his name) in the original film. On that basis I believed this could do justice as a sequel to the cult classic.

    How wrong could I be! First up, Corey Haim and 'the other Frog brother' are both credited at the end of the film, but I don't recall seeing either of them in the film, in fact Edgar Frog (Feldman) mentions that his brother has died! And second, they tried to capture the humour of the original film and simply failed.

    This film is more of a homage then a sequel, it follows the original story with only minor adjustments, eg. this time it's a brother and sister rather then 2 brothers, and this time it's the girl that gets seduced rather than the fella.

    Another point - you would have thought that after 20 years since the first film the effects would be spectacular, but they're not, they could've been lifted from the original, which shows they're budget must have been tight.

    Overall this film is very average, should've been a lot better, but then I've seen worse.

    I like True Blood, so am watching more Vampire movies. I have not seen Lost Boys 1 though. This movie was too type-cast for me. Vampires are after the hero and his sister, and he has to do the wooden stake thing to save her and himself. Big deal.

    Not as good as the original of course but not too bad. Basically its the same kind of setup (as usual) the 'tribe' arent too cool really, just adrenaline junkies who surf and ride motorbikes too fast, a kind of rip of from 'Point Break' really. The original vamp tribe had that 80... read more's cool to em that you just cant beat hehe the rest of the cast is pretty good though Kiefer's brother is the new head vamp (actually looking really good and goth with his blonde locks) Hilgenbrink of American Pie (Stiffler's bro) fame is actually good and fits the role with his sister (Reeser) being sweet, cute and not annoying atall.
    Feldman is back but is clearly the weakest link in the story and cast, his acting is shockingly hammy and what is up with his pathetic voice put on?? lol sounds ridiculous.
    The effects are quite bloody in places and do look cool I gotta admit, some nice deaths and a good intro with a cameo from Savini :)
    lastly, dont miss the wicked cameo by Corey Haim facing off against Feldman at the end, nice touch.

    You wait 21 years for a sequel to a cult classic and this is all we get? It's very poor saved at times only by Corey Feldman returning in his original role and not looking much older, maybe he is a vampire to?

    The sequel has the teen and the vampire bits, but replaces the angst, horror and comedy with, respectively, constipation, unintentional laughs and ennui. It is a Z-movie. The plot simply replays the original, but with a healthy dollop of Point Break. The second problems's ... read morethe acting. Corey Feldman, as a vampire slayer Edger Frog (from the original), comes across like Laurence Olivier next to the rest of this lot.
    Believe it, Angus Sutherland takes over his older half-brother Kiefer, from the original The Lost Boys, as the head vampire in this sequel.
    And I was surprised to see Corey Haim (also from the original) appeared cameo after the closing credits.
  • December 25, 2008
    Disappointing to say the least. Relies heavily on too much gore and a few token topless teens to distract from the fact that, yes, they stuffed this up big time. Corey Feldman is okay in it, but what was up with his voice?! Corey Haim for two seconds at the end credits was an ... read moreinsult. If it weren't for title and the brief appearances by the Coreys, this could have been any random no-name C grade horror flick.
