Where do you start with this one? If you've never seen The Lost Boys we insist on you opening a new web page and immediately finding either a stream or DVD version (we'd actually recommend VHS for authenticity's sake but not sure anyone still has a player?) and doing some clearly long-overdue homework by watching one of the archetypal 1980s movies. If you have, then this vinyl release of the original soundtrack will probably be in you shopping cart already.
All that said, it gives us enormous pleasure to describe just how good this is. If the movie defined the era in terms of 'young adult entertainment', a hybrid of coming of age and vampire movie with thick black comedy running throughout, and some of the era's coolest stars (Corey Haim, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman, Dianne Wiest), the score is every bit the match. Power ballads, high rolling rock 'n' roll packing snares on every second beat, all present, correct, and hugely enjoyable.
