I remember when I was 14 years old (2002) I was up late one Friday night in my room flipping through channels. This movie was on, about 20 minutes in. I was captivated. It held my attention more than any other movie at the time. Never knew the name of it. I’ve been searching for this film for literally 20 years. I finally found it a couple days ago. It’s as good as I remember.
I’ve been looking for this movie for literally 20 years. I’m 36 now, but back in 2002-2003 I was up late one night scanning through TV and caught the middle of this film. All I remembered was it had to do with Las Vegas, drugs, and this gay guy who loved his best friend that was straight and they were living out of a motel. Atleast once a year since then I’d google keywords to find it. Today I got lucky ❤️
@@jacob_yancosky Glad for the video dude. My story with it was pretty similar. My whole life I grew up around people just like that, and having the chance to see it when I was like...13, I think, really made it hit home. I've shown it to other people and the reaction is usually positive. It's really solid, and the cast is indeed all-star. It's definitely a "discretion is advised" type affair, just because its approach to filming sexuality is about as honest as I've ever seen for the group depicted.
Honestly was not expecting the ending even though I know it happened for real. The acting and writing felt very real to what would happen in that world. Very underrated movie here!💚💚 I hated basically of all the shitty characters because the acting was great😂😂 and then seeing all sides of "what happend".
I agree with you part 1 was the best out of the 3 one of the most peculiar franchises like some of the lost boys comics don’t fully add up to the sequels
LOL 😂 This video was not only compelling but also hilarious. My favourite part was this scene 1:26 to 1:34 He looks nothing like his ID photo. 1:34 to 1:42 was funny ‘cause of how random it was when the young guy kicked the man in the suit in his ass. Haha 😂 And 1:43 to 1:59 where they were playing card games was pretty wholesome to watch. Overall, this video was FIRE! I watched this shit TWICE, that’s how awesome I think it is. Thanks for making it and thanks to the people who participated in the vid. Especially the guy jumping at 0:56 He was going crazy in this video!
For me, it is the truest form of found footage film. It has no plot to speak of. It’s just a random series of clips stitched together. It feels like the type of thing that you would find festering on a garbage pile. It calls the bluff on all found footage films and I kind of love it for it
Brad's acting was so natural... I've read that he used to learn his lines very quickly and was very professional on the set. I wish we had more scenes of Josh, he is the only reason I watch this movie.❤
Pete Doherty describes this feeling perfectly: “..the language of a long gone era, if it ever existed at all. I don’t know of its possible to be nostalgic for a past that never existed, but I think I am.” Pete Doherty.
I think Brad was a pretty average actor to be honest. It’s sad what happened to him, Hollywood is not a place for kids but I’m not sure the hype? I like some of his movies but he’s not really very good in them, particularly Bully. There was a cast of very talented young actors - Michael Pitt, Nick Stahl but renfro didn’t cut the mustard as Marty. Dying immortalised him and overhyped him.
@@jacob_yancosky who is the rest of the world. You mean Brad Renfro fans? Of course they do and I’m sure you’re sour about my comment but it’s not pointless, it my opinion. I do agree it’s probably the wrong video to comment on but I saw it and it was my first thought. As I said, I think he was average to good. I think he was a talented individual as I saw a video of him shedding the guitar once. It’s a shame he was exposed to Hollywood at such a young age. It’s a pedofile ring. Chin up mate and don’t be so offended by others opinions.
Okla doesn't die in prison. Frank is able to get him out. Also Frank does just one job for Leo. Wish he had never done that. One of my favourite films.
cinema junkies! lovely name, I own a screen printing business called screen junkies lol, loved this video dude, great work, loved elephant, everything about it was perfect, gerry was too dry for me but shots were mwuah, last days is next on the list to watch
During the 1990s Snapple iced tea craze, I was there in the crowds, Snapple iced tea peach flavor took over my life, It turned me into a hooligan, The popping sound when opening the Snapple bottle made something in my brain click and I turned into an iced tea animal. My life went downhill to its lowest when someone offered me a coffee. I woke up in a prison cell, only to face a judge who happen to have a Snapple bottle on his bench, I lunged at him...
I thought this movie was really shit. A Masterpiece ?? Nah no way. What was this gloryfication of Jimmy. His wifes creepy whispering of 'A King does what he has to do' after she knowingly let him kill his old friend Dave. And the way his trauma was portrayed I also found to be problematic. Like when you are molested as a little kid you suddenly loose your mind as an 50 year old adult. I just don't think thats good storytelling nor is it good character crafting. The whole plot of the film is just build upon these little convenient tricks to make the story happen. It didn't feel at all realistic to me. Also the way Dave's wife goes about her suspicion of Dave killing Katie? She goes to the father of the dead girl and just tells him 'Oh I think my husband killed your child' instead of going to the Police or confronting Dave?? And then the ending scene ... she obviously kinda knows that Dave is dead because of her. So she is losing her mind too crying and waiving to the lethargic Michael. Didn't get what that was supposed to tell or show me. I probably could go on, because there were so much things about this movie that rubbed me wrong, that I found unbelievable, that I found to be lazy convenient story telling, etc.
I was a kid when this came out, brings back nostalgia, me and my friend were wearing big puffy dc scate shoes because of this film i think. And we are russians
Original is the best Im gonna be in the minority here, but i love the sequels! Having both Sam and Alan turning was actually clever and juat shows anyone can be corrupted. If they had Alan fully turning by biting edgar, thay couldve made the ending more interesting as if i think I heard Peter say that if he did, then Alan wouldve become thr new alpha? Just a thought
