Lost Boys: The Thirst (2010 Video)
2/10
Sorry, but NOT good

I'm a huge fan of the original Lost Boys. While this is better than the second one, it plays like it was written by an amateur.

There were some very memorable moments. I love the part when the vampires jumped out of the plane. Looked great. THIS should have been the beginning of the movie.

There were a few good actors, but most of the cast was terrible. When you have a few bad actors, it's very difficult to get engrossed in the story. The girl side-kick from the comic book store really stuck out and not in a good way.

The story pulled directly from the original. The twist at the end was almost exactly the same. The flash backs to the original movie made NO sense.

It felt like a few things were thrown in "just because". For example, the boob shot at the rave, novelist walking around in lingerie at the beginning, soooooo many shots of vampires bearing their teeth at the camera and the gums of the vampires were so fake. It was hard to concentrate on the story with the bad props.

Love the old music. Liked to see it incorporated.

In general, a huge let down again. Overall, a lot of things were overdone and this made the story difficult to focus on.

My bet is that this is the last of the Lost Boys series. These last two movies have stained the awesomeness of the original movie.
