Desmond Ryan
Schumacher falls far short of the talent for pop wit that Joe Dante showed in Gremlins and The Howling.
Jay Boyar
The Lost Boys, which attempts to be funny while preserving the shock value of the vampire legend, aims somewhat higher... and misses.
Michael Wilmington
There's always room for fancy trash, and this movie -- about a gang of punk vampires terrorizing the new kids in town -- seems capable of providing some. Then the characters open their mouths.
Dave Kehr
Schumacher`s sputtering, short-term approach to the material is a disappointment, because there's something in it that ought to make for a good movie, and from time to time makes The Lost Boys good enough.
Variety Staff
A horrifically dreadful vampire teensploitation entry.
Directed with a cavalier disregard for intelligibility, this has to be one of the most anaemic vampire flicks ever made.

Caryn James
It laughs at the form it embraces, adds a rock-and-roll soundtrack and, if you share its serious-satiric attitude, manages to be very funny.

I miss the 80s Great great film. If you haven't seen this film do yourself a favor and watch it. A+
Lost Boys A oldie but goodie!! You must watch it to believe, it's that good. A star filled cast, I hope helped....
Great Looks like fun back in the days just my favorite movie just amazing
Screw Twilight, this is a vampire movie. Mega cult-classic 80's vampire flick. If you haven't seen it yet, slap yourself now and watch it NOW.

The Movie that Changed me! This was the first true vampire movie I ever saw Was in PA for the summer with family and I went with my cousins not knowing what I was see in 20 years later it still my fav movie Keiffer Sutherland had a prescense like no other and he had the shortest line in the movie but yet a face to remember. Once I saw this movie I have been a vampire fan for life! Anything Vampire and I'm at it!
If you haven't seen it, you're missing out. Best film ever. I thank god everyday for the existence of it.

A Haunted House 2

Marlon Wayans returns in this outrageous and wickedly funny sequel as Malcolm who, after exorcising the demons of his ex, is starting fresh with his new girlfriend (Jaime Pressly) and her two children. But after moving into their dream home, he's once again plagued by bizarre paranormal events. Co-starring Gabriel Iglesias and Cedric the Entertainer, it's the ultimate laugh-out-loud scary comedy that critics call "over the top hilarious!" (Fernando Esquivel, Latino-Review.com)

Piranha DD
Horror

After the terror unleashed on Lake Victoria in PIRANHA 3D, the pre-historic school of blood thirsty piranhas are back. This time, no one is safe from the flesh-eating fish as they sink their razor-sharp teeth into the visitors of the summer's best attraction, The Big Wet Water Park. Christopher Lloyd (BACK TO THE FUTURE), reprising his role as the eccentric piranha expert, along with survivor Paul Scheer (TV's THE LEAGUE) are back for more fish frenzy. David Hasselhoff trades in the sandy beaches of TV's BAYWATCH to be a celebrity lifeguard at the racy water park. Prepare for double the terror, double the action, and double the D's in this sequel.

Frightened by stories of the legendary Jersey Devil, the local population of Piney’s and a giant dim witted neighbor, the girls eagerly return to Seaside Heights where they hook-up with five fist-pumping delinquents who incessantly disrespect all with their reprehensible behavior. As day turns to night, the group converges at a Seaside bar where they are soon ejected for inciting a dance-floor brawl. With nowhere else to go, the group retreats to the house in the Pine Barrens for a night of carnal delights. Blinded by their selfish pursuits, the group remains unaware that their long outstanding debt to humanity is about to be settled - with their lives.

Management candidate Nick Hendricks (Jason Bateman) has been logging 12-hour days and eating everything his twisted supervisor Dave Harken (Kevin Spacey) dishes out, only to find he's never getting promoted. Meanwhile, dental assistant Dale Arbus (Charlie Day) has been struggling to maintain his self-respect against the relentless X-rated advances of Dr. Julia Harris, D.D.S. (Jennifer Aniston). And accountant Kurt Buckman (Jason Sudeikis) has just learned that his company's corrupt new owner, Bobby Pellit (Colin Farrell), is not only bent on ruining his career but plans to funnel toxic waste into an unsuspecting population. So, on the strength of a few-too-many drinks and some dubious advice from a hustling ex-con (Jamie Foxx), the guys devise a convoluted but foolproof plan to rid the world of their respective employers... permanently. But even the best-laid plans are only as good as the brains behind them. MPAA Rating: R for crude and sexual content, pervasive language and some drug material. © 2011 New Line Productions, Inc.

From "Old School" director Todd Phillips comes a comedy about a bachelor party gone very, very wrong. Two days before his wedding, Doug (Justin Bartha) drives to Las Vegas with his best buddies Phil and Stu (Bradley Cooper and Ed Helms) and his future brother-in-law Alan (Zach Galifianakis), for a blow-out bachelor party they vow they'll never forget. But when the three groomsmen wake up the next morning with pounding headaches, they can't remember a thing. Their luxury hotel suite is beyond trashed and the groom is nowhere to be found. With no clue about what happened and little time to spare, the trio must attempt to retrace their bad decisions from the night before in order to figure out where things went wrong in the hopes of finding Doug and getting him back to L.A. in time for his wedding. But the more they begin to uncover, the more they realize just how much trouble they're really in. MPAA Rating: R This motion picture: © 2009 IFP Westcoast Erste GmbH & Co. KG.

Watch Horrible Bosses Totally Inappropriate Edition, with 8 minutes of all new hilarious footage not seen in theatres! For Nick, Kurt and Dale, (Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis) the only thing that would make the daily grind more tolerable would be to grind their intolerable bosses (Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell, and Kevin Spacey) into dust. Quitting is not an option, so, on the strength of a few-too-many drinks and some dubious advice from a hustling ex-con (Jamie Foxx), the guys devise a convoluted but foolproof plan to rid the world of their respective employers... permanently. But even the best-laid plans are only as good as the brains behind them.

The new "Harold & Kumar" comedy picks up six years after the duo's last adventure. After years of growing apart, Harold Lee (John Cho) and Kumar Patel (Kal Penn) have replaced each other with new friends and are preparing for their respective Yuletide celebrations. But when a mysterious package mistakenly arrives at Kumar's door on Christmas Eve, his attempt to redirect it to Harold's house ends with the "high grade" contents—and Harold's father-in-law's prize Christmas tree— going up in smoke. Reluctantly embarking on another ill-advised journey with Kumar through New York City, their search for the perfect tree almost blows Christmas Eve sky high.

Hard-core rapper Ice Cube, after appearing in such hard-hitting films as Boyz 'N the Hood and Higher Learning, played his first comic role in this picture he co-wrote with frequent musical collaborator DJ Pooh. Craig (Ice Cube) manages to get fired on his day off (though he claims it's through no fault of his own) and spends the day hanging out with his buddy Smokey (Chris Tucker) and trying to avoid his father (John Witherspoon), who wants him to find another job immediately. Smokey (whose name might have something to do with his tremendous fondness for marijuana) has even more serious problems; he was given $200 worth of weed to sell by Big Worm (Faizon Love), but he ended up smoking it instead, and if he can't come up with the money by the end of the day, he'll be in a world of hurt (and will put Craig in the same place just for being his friend). And Deebo (Tom "Tiny" Lister, Jr.), a gargantuan bully who roams the neighborhood on his bicycle, has it in for Craig, while Craig tries his best just to stay out of his way. As one would expect, Friday features a strong hip-hop soundtrack, featuring tracks by such artists as Dr. Dre, Cypress Hill, Mack 10, and Funkdoobiest, as well as old-school R&B selections from The Isley Brothers, Roger, and Rose Royce.
