Lost Boys: The Thirst

I have been trying to get in a lot of movies lately. I finally got around to watching the new Lost Boys movie, and I have to say it was a really fun time. I think I laughed every time Corey Feldman grunted, to the annoyance of my husband I'm sure. Seriously, it never got old to me. Directly from imdb...

In San Cazador, California, the clumsy vampire hunter Edgar Frog is evicted from his trailer. But the best-seller writer Gwen Lieber offers him a job to destroy the head vampire DJ X that promotes worldwide raves to increase his army of undead. Gwen tells that her brother Peter disappeared in Ibiza two years ago in an X-Party promoted by the alpha-vampire. Now DJ X is coming to San Cazador to promote a sacrifice during a party in the blood moon on the next Friday, and Edgar discovers that the rave will take place in a slaughterhouse in an island. Gwen hires also the Hollywood participant of reality show Lars von Goetz that comes with the cameraman Claus. Edgar invites his brother Alan to join the team but he declines, and he teams up with his friend Zoe. When the group finds DJ X, Edgar discloses a secret about the head-vampire.

The story wasn't anything special but it wasn't bad either. I was definitely more about the characters though. Obviously I loved Feldman in this. He does the "it's so bad it's good" acting so well. I also thought that one guy Lars was pretty funny with his over-the-top "I'm so awesome" attitude. Who doesn't love a guy who wrestles grizzlies or alligators or whatever it was he took down!? The twist was kinda lame, especially since they revealed something I thought was already known to the audience. But I did like the twist with Zoe. Even though that whole theme is a bit overdone, I thought it was cute and I look forward to another sequel.

Nothing special with this one but a fun time nonetheless.
