5.0 out of 5 stars
Great addition to the movie!, March 24, 2004
This review is from: Lost Boys (Mass Market Paperback)
The Lost Boys is my favorite movie and I've had the book for awhile. It's really a great book, since it's an adaptation of the script and not the actual movie. That means we get lots of great "cut" scenes, such as what happened before the Boys took Michael to the train tracks, Michael working to earn money for his leather jacket, and an epilogue about what happened after the final scene of the movie. There's also some obscure vampire lore than was originally in the script but not in the final film, such as salt sticking to a vampire's feet and an aversion to water. They also spell Marko "Marco," so I'm not sure which way it's really supposed to be spelt. Anyway, I would definitely get a copy of this book from the Marketplace, even if it's not in the best condition it is totally worth it.

School reading!, August 6, 2001
This review is from: Lost Boys (Mass Market Paperback)
My daughter brought this book home for school reading. It was handy so I read it. Definitely a book for teenagers but beware if you scare easily! This book is about teenage vampire boys who live in a cave near a pier and fairground. They come out at night to feed their cravings by charging at groups of kids having parties on the beach or an unsuspecting night guard walking to his car after his long shift. The story revolves around two boys who have just moved to the area with their mum and are living with their grandpa. The oldest boy gets involved with the vampire gang after spotting a very pretty girl who happens to be 'involved' with the vampires too! This book is for teens so, as a mum, my review is a mum's opinion. I think this book is okay for a teen to read as a fun book. They couldn't possibly believe anything that goes on in this book such as flying vampires attacking each other from different corners of a dark, dark room. And who is their leader? I will never tell but you will be very surprised when you find out! In the meantime, the younger boy has met some vampire fighting friends who set out to destroy the vampire gang with typical vampire gadgets such as crosses, garlic, salt, mirrors etc. Only problem is, none of it works. I found myself laughing at this book. All in all, it was well written and I'd recommend it for your sons and daughters.
