   Painfully bad

   Did I watch the same movie as everyone else? My expectations for this
   movie were not high, but it was worse than I had anticipated. It was
   really hard to sit through the entire thing. I'm sorry but Corey
   Feldman is not a good actor and should not be tasked with carrying an
   entire movie. He growls nearly every line he delivers. I truly love the
   original, and don't think I could have been more disappointed with its
   sequel. Then again I have yet to watch the 2nd.

   I am nowhere near an expert movie reviewer, but felt compelled to
   register on this site to warn anyone thinking of watching this movie.
   If you are curious about it, do yourself a favor and get it from Redbox
   or Netflix. Do not spend more than .99 on it.

   The Lost Boys: The Need For More Money

   *** This review may contain spoilers ***

   Another chapter to The Lost Boys; boy do I remember the day when Lost
   Boys fans were craving for a sequel, now they're just cranking them out
   like hot bread. The Tribe was a bit of a disappointment to me, it was
   too average and didn't have the same charm as the first film had, but
   then again what a challenge it had to arise too. But The Thirst was
   something that I was afraid of, where it seems that they are just
   trying to cash in. But I do have to admit that this film was a little
   more clever with it's ideas and at least wasn't trying to copy the
   first Lost Boys. Instead we follow the Frog Brothers and see how far
   they have come with their business. It's sad that only 2 original cast
   members could join this movie, sadly we lost Corey Haim this year and
   will never see him in another Lost Boys movie again but to not see any
   other of the old cast was a little sad. I think it would have been
   interesting if the little boy Laddie had joined the Frog Brothers. It
   seems like the Frog Brothers just skimp over what happened to the other
   characters and are back into the story.

   Edgar and Alan Frog interrupt a half-vampire Senator who is killing a
   Congressman to finish his transformation into a full-vampire, but in
   the ensuing chaos Alan is forced to drink vampire blood, which will
   transform him into a half-vampire himself. Five years later in San
   Cazador, California, back at his trailer, Edgar is approached by Gwen
   Lieber, a writer of romantic vampire novels, whose brother Peter was
   kidnapped during a rave, and she suspects vampiric activity. She gives
   him a vial of a drug called "The Thirst" which is given to people at
   raves hosted by a person known as "DJ X"; he determines that it is
   vampire blood. Edgar visits Alan, who is now half vampire and satisfies
   his thirst for blood by feeding on animal blood acquired in his job as
   a taxidermist. Edgar tries to enlist Alan's aid in stopping DJ X from
   raising an army through his raves, but he refuses, having lost all hope
   that he can be saved. After a visit to Sam's grave, in which Edgar
   returns to Sam the Batman #14 that Sam had boasted having when they
   met, Edgar finds that Alan has left him a book of vampire history to
   help in his mission. Edgar gives the book to Zoe to research. She is
   attacked by a vampire, but she and Edgar defeat it, and she explains
   what she has learned about a ritual sacrifice during a Blood Moon, such
   as the one that will occur the night of the rave.

   The Thirst has a more interesting story than The Tribe, but I would be
   lying if I said that I enjoyed it fully. I don't know if it was the
   direction or the actors, but a lot of things just seemed off key. From
   one minute it's an action movie and then the next it's a detective
   story then a horror story then a comedy, etc. The Thirst couldn't
   decide what it wanted to be so I couldn't decide if it was a good
   enough film to recommend. Since I'm such a huge fan of The Lost Boys I
   made the risky decision of buying first without seeing, so I'll
   probably watch the film again but for right now I'm not too impressed.
   It just seems like Corey Feldman is really trying hard to hold onto
   those days where he was the awesome tough movie star and I can't take
   him seriously in the film. The film style is too trendy for my tastes
   and just could have been handled in a better way as the action scenes
   are too hard on the eyes. I would say if you're looking to see where
   the story continues, this is an alright movie to catch, but as of a
   horror movie you could safely skip it.

   5/10
