There’s a vivid richness to the entire image, especially noticeable on the exterior shots of Santa Carla under the film’s opening credits. Detail is terrifically sharp (although due to the anamorphic process, there is still inherent and appropriate softness present where it should be at time), the fine detail front and centre across not just close-ups are immediately apparent in all the usual places – clothing textures, facial detail and in all the trinkets buried deep within the superb set design. Lines are sharp without being overly so and it gives a fantastic sense of depth to the whole picture. For information or assistance, call Cineworld on 0330 333 4444 Mon-Sun 09:00 - 22:00.

Audio Commentary - Director Joel Schumacher flies solo, for a measured -- if sometimes slow -- commentary. The basics are covered, from how the project developed to the casting to the surprisingly stressful production. Schumacher has a dry wit to the point that some might be bored, but I found him a wry and engaging speaker. Casual fans can probably skip this and just watch the documentary features, but diehards should give it a listen.

The Lost Boys' is actually a lot less interesting than it sounds. Directed by Joel Schumacher and shot by Oscar-winning cinematographer Michael Chapman, the film has a wonderfully glossy and rich visual look, but not much more going for it. The story of a teenager drawn to the dark side of vampirism had the potential to explore adolescent issues rarely touched by mainstream horror cinema, yet these facets are largely jettisoned by the obvious script that plays it too safe. Any subversive possibilities are largely tossed aside in favor of standard genre thrills and overt humor, which, while making the film entertaining, ultimately render it vapid.

(Sadly, the other superior music video produced for 'The Lost Boys,' INXS' cover of "Good Times," is for some reason not included.)Inside the Vampire’s Cave– This is actually a four-part feature that takes a look at the various aspects of the film. We reviewed this Region free UK Ultra HD Blu-ray release on a JVC-DLA N5 Ultra HD 4K projector and a Panasonic DP-UB9000 Dolby Vision/HDR10 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player.

Turns out David and his gang are a tad older than they look, by a couple of hundred years, and Star wasn’t lying when she warned Michael he was drinking blood from David’s freaky bottle. Michael is truly becoming one of the gang and the urge for him to kill is growing. Sam discovers his brother’s attitude is a little more than teen angst and enlists the aide of the Frog brothers to try and turn him away from his impending doom. They believe if they can destroy the head vampire, the likes of Michael and Star will return to normal. All the while, Mom is trying to date her boss and is pissed at the both of them. They hatch a plan to kill David, assuming he’s the one they want. They’re dangerously wrong.

Deleted Scenes (SD, 12 minutes) - There are 18 scenes in all, and most quite short. There are no major sequences excised, but of interest is a better set-up for the Edward Hermann character, a subplot involving a summer job for Jason Patric, and an extended sex scene that's even less erotic than the one in the film. The Lost Boys (1987) with a brand new 4K Blu-ray edition of the film. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on September 20th. However it’s the stunning brightness and beautifully robust colours that really shine. Literally in some cases. The previous blu-ray had a slightly overcast sheen to the picture – that has been completely banished on this new image, washed out skin tones now replaced with healthy complexions, and dull skies with wonderfully nuanced and the bright blues of a California summer. And this new brighter and richer sense of colour is perfect for Schumacher’s overt lighting – be it the complex shadow detail of the vampire’s underground lair, the neon sheen of the Boardwalk and its many shops and rides or the blood-red drenched finale set in Grandpa’s house, the colours leap off the screen and leave the previous release in its dust. The only slight note of imperfection in this is that some of the insanely bright whites can bloom a little – never across the whole screen, but in certain highlights, it’s the only very minor blight on an otherwise outstanding image. But all of that is banished with the now clearly observed wonderful twinkling highlights of the glitter that cover the Frog Brothers after their staking of one of the vamps. Eat that Twilight, The Lost Boys did glittery vamps first. And better….

After four decades and countless viewings, The Lost Boys remains a personal favorite that I can still watch and adore with the same level of admiration as I did when I was a teen.I've watched this a million times at home on VHS then DVD and Blu-ray and I never once noticed that when the Frog brothers come out from the lair after the first staking covered in vampire blood that it sparkles like glitter in the sun light.
