Watcha gonna watch?!?!?!?? NOSTALGIAWEEN Nostalgiaween animation by - ru-vid.com Nostalgiaween music by - ru-vid.com Follow us on Twitch - www.twitch.tv/channelawesome

"You're a vampire! Wait till mom finds out!" What's she going to do, spank him with the Bible?

Best horror line ever: "One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach, all the damn vampires."

I'm from Santa Cruz myself, and we take great pride in the fact that this movie was filmed here.

That was an incredibly sweet tribute to Willis. Also RIP, Joel Schumacher and Corey Haim, who was only 38 when he died in 2010.

Schumacher when asked if he was making a horror movie or a comedy: "Yes."

"it's the only beaver this bedroom is going to see" I'd like to report a murder officer...

Can we quietly appreciate how much of a chad the Grandpa is in this movie? He lives off of Hostess and Orange Soda, he goes out on steamy dates every evening, and has basically weaponized the Kramer Entrance to slay vampires as if they were common house pests. Its only appropriate the film comes to an immediate end after a brief demonstration of his power. Grandpa has asserted dominance. New Jersey's vampire problem is over. The end.

Can we mention that the sax player is nearly 60 and STILL HAS LUNGS OF STEEL

Fun fact: Keifer Sutherland actually broke his hand during the first day of shooting while trying to impress some girls on his motorcycle (typical 😅), which is why his character always wears gloves. There’s one split-second scene at the boardwalk where you can see the wrapping sticking out of the bottom of his glove. My older cousin thought it’d be hilarious to try & scare me with this movie when I was 7, only for it to instantly become one of my favorite vampire movies of all time. I’m glad you finally did a review of this childhood favorite of mine. ❤️❤️❤️

I still say the grandpa is really a werewolf who's just gotten so old he's just saying "f**k it, I just want a beer"

"One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach...all the damn vampires." best last line in any movie ever! i was expecting a bigger thing about Alex Winter being in this

This was Corey Haim and Corey Feldman's first film together, which marked the start of a popular 1980s trend "The Two Coreys," in which Feldman and Haim starred together in a number of teenage films. Corey Haim jammed with his co-stars between takes, and enjoyed the large props room. Excluded from the nightly parties held by the older actors, Haim bonded with Corey Feldman as they stayed in the hotel watching movies and visited the local arcade. Gerard McMahon wrote the theme song "Cry Little Sister" after reading the script, but without seeing the film. In the documentary Bloodsucking Cinema (2007), Corey Haim said that all the blood had glitter in it to give it a shimmering effect and was "slimier than other fake blood." When asked why he did the film, Joel Schumacher simply stated: "Vampires are hot. They're the only erotic monsters. Frankenstein is not hot." The film is titled after the companions of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan, who remained forever young. The names of the Frog brothers, Edgar and Alan, are a reference to Edgar Allan Poe, the well-known writer of horror fiction. Kiefer Sutherland's role as David, being one of the lead cast members, had the fewest lines amongst all leading and supporting cast members. At the same time, he had the most dialogue amongst the four vampire Lost Boys. The movie was filmed in Santa Cruz, CA. Santa Cruz in Spanish means "Holy Cross," which is an interesting connection given the vampire subject matter and their vulnerability to crucifixes. Max's dog Thorn is a white German Shepherd Kiefer Sutherland's father Donald Sutherland was in a vampire movie five years later: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992). Vampire tropes: no or diminished reflection, garlic, being invited in to one's home, "Lucy" the wife of Dracula, holy water. Even though Star is a half-vampire, we never see her in her vampire form. Paul is the only vampire in the group who shows overt emotions, since in the novel he is the last of the group to be turned and still has human traits as he undergoes his transition. The order that the vampire boys jump off the bridge is in the same order that they are killed. The reason why the head vampire Max passed the Frog Brothers vampire test is because Michael invited him in. Max very formally requests permission to enter the house. Initially, it seems like an obvious giveaway that he's a vampire, but then he passes all the Frog brothers' vampire detection tests, confusing the issue until it's revealed he passed because he was invited in. When the group eats Chinese food, David leaves his chopsticks sticking straight out of his and Michael's food. In Chinese and Japanese culture, it is offensive to give a meal with chopsticks sticking into it, because it is like wishing death upon the recipient. This shows that David has unprovoked animosity towards Michael and wants him (Michael) dead. Hence, as she later reveals, Michael was meant to be killed by Star as her first meal.

"Does Corey Feldman sound like Sylvester Stalone" Well yeah, Schumacher told Corey to watch Rambo and basically be Rambo except for vampires.

After grandpa got let go from his job at Encom, all he had left was modified tractors and vampire hunting. What a legend.

To this day any time I hear "Cry Little Sister" I immediately think of The Lost Boys.

I like how the comics later retconed the sax player into a vampire hunter and all around bad ass

NOSTALGIAWEEN HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN!!!

The Goonies+Dracula=The Lost Boys

Such a fun movie. RIP Joel Schumacher and Corey Haim.

"Sleep all day, party all night, never grow old; it's fun to be a vampire"

4:45 “...and their 2 boys, Edgar and Allen.” Me: “....Where’s Poe?”

Me a kid seeing this on the family channel "Oh is this a Peter Pan side story" minutes later "Nope"

I adore Lost Boys, i even write stories for the fandom. Honestly I cried at the news of Joel's passing. It was so tragic after Corey Haim was lost, and later Brooke Mccarter (who, fun fact, was originally casted for David but ended up being cast as Paul), it sucks that so much of the Lost Boys family has been truly lost. But their memories live on in this cult classic

14:57 The *_Bill & Ted_* air guitar sound effect as Marko fell from the ceiling was *pure gold,* dude!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 This video deserves *WAY MORE* likes!

This year's intro is AMAZING

Yep, Feldman was indeed putting on a Stallone style voice for this role, as he was instructed to do by Joel. The fact that you put that together without knowing that as a fact; must mean he did a pretty good job with it. He and Newlander were also told that their roles were serious and to treat them as such, they didn't catch on that these were comedic parts until crew members starting laughing with their performances.

As weird as it sounds, this movie makes the "can't be Uninvited rule" kinda cool in a snakish way

Soooo, Peter Pan had to rescue the lost boys from the evil vampires huh? Finally some backstory of how they got together :P

Sad to hear about your fan passing away. That can’t be easy. We all love you. Good for you in doing the mention and the charity shoutout for him.

I grew up in Santa Cruz (filming location) and in the mid 90’s we housed my fathers coworker, who was in town for about three months from his home country, India. He had been in town less than a day, and the first chance he was alone with me and my brother (away from my father) he asked, with a very straight face, and in complete seriousness: “Is it true that there are vampires here?” My older brother replied “No! That’s not true... ...but DO be careful when eating rice!” Happy to report that Pradeep left 90 days later, WITHOUT encountering a single vampire. He also refused to eat ANYTHING during any meal with rice involved!

I'm so sorry for the guy who passed away. At least he had an NC episode dedicated to him

The best part of the ending is that it implies that the Grandpa knew all along that vampires where everywhere.

Fun Fact: David didn’t die at the end. He was planned to come back in the sequel, but it never got made, so he was brought back in a tie-in comic

the cat and the hat is scary and no one else can tell me otherwise

This time HelloFresh killed me... because those "ha ha ha"´s. 😂😂😂

This movie has been a staple in my best "horror" collection ever since I was 11ish. My mom who is a horror freak showed it to me and my younger siblings and ever since, its been an awesome film that I watch from time to time. I even saw it on a double date and we were cracking up laughing and then making fun of the last battle by using Pokémon terms like "Nanook used Tackle." "It's super effective!" Good times with this movie...sucks that the two sequels were terrible, only tolerable by Feldman's lines in the second one. "I went online, filled out a few forms, and clicked 'ordain me'." Also, the soundtrack is easily one of my favorites growing up. Even now when I hear "People are Strange" or "Have a Good Time (Tonight)" I instantly think Lost Boys.

RIP Joel you were great may you have a nice cup of tea wherever you are.

"and their two boys, Edgar and Allan." _thinks for a moment_ _Cracks up_

When I got my prosthetic permanent fangs the first weekend I went to the Santa Cruz boardwalk and played Lost Boys back in 1993....

Chris: Well, can we watch Lost Boys? I heard of that one. Herbert: Those..those are a different lost boys.

“Anyone who doesn’t love this movie is a terrorist for fun.” So..... Walter? Because Walter hates fun

Do an Old Vs New Of "Pet Sematary" or "Carrie" for the king review

"Anyone who doesn't like this is a terrorist of fun!" "Spoken like true Virgins." This is the BEST episode of Nostalgia Critic EVER! The last time I laughed even close to this much during a Nostalgia Critic episode was for the Mad Max Fury Road episode, which also happens to be my favorite film! The Lost Boys is my second favorite film! This review was nearly perfect! That tribute to Joel Schumacher was really sweet! Joel Schumacher will be missed! I did a photoshoot of my Paul cosplay from The Lost Boys the day before he died. It was weird talking about how great Joel Schumacher was and then hearing he had passed the next day. It would have been a perfect review, if it had mentioned Brooke McCarter and Billy Wirth a bit more who played Paul and Dwayne. They are among my favorite actors! Billy Wirth is such a humble sweetheart and Brooke McCarter was a great guy too. They happened to be best friends while Brooke was still alive. Brooke also was good friends with Corey Haim until the end as well. Corey Haim said his two best friends in life were Corey Feldman and Brooke McCarter. Brooke McCarter died a few years after Haim from a rare genetic disorder. Luckily, his daughter is only a carrier of the gene with one of the recessive genes, so she won't get it. Fun fact: Joel Schumacher said the Frog Brothers were his favorite characters he EVER created!

Looks up the 6 hour SK Mini Series. Me: Oh cool, he’s gonna do The Stand. Let’s look up the plot. Plot: The Government releases a weaponized version of influenza. Me: .....................Okay then.

I just realized something you forgot to mention. The two kids name are "Edger" and "Allen". All there were missing is a "Poe" and we would of had the trio knows as "THE CROWS" !

The Lost boys You see, this is why you should always build your house on your spawn point and always have a compass in Minecraft.

17:05 That is an excellent Tales from The Crypt Reference

no mention how Star didn't care about Mike until he get a leather jacket then she want to jump him

Pouring out some Frankenberry for those we’ve lost is now my new tradition

Michael: You have a big date tonight, Grandpa? Grandpa: Just going to drop by some of my handiwork to the Widow Johnson. Michael: What did you stuff for her? Mr. Johnson?

This movie was one of my childhood favorites! I had a the copy of this movie that I absolutely wore out as a kid. It also had Die Hard and Gremlins on the same tape (all copied using two VCRs and rented movies).

2:49 Wouldn't "Count Chocula" have been more appropriate to the specific film being reviewed?

Joel made the batman movie he was told to make, that's why Joel didn't like making to high budget movies.

Fun fact: Corey Feldman was impersonating Sly Stallone for his role hence the red Rambo style headband.

"As Bram Stroker wrote" He wrote the Dracula porn parody.

That ending tribute really hit me. My mom recently passed away from a bowel perforation, but years ago, she almost died from pulmonary emboli. The scariest thing about it is how quickly it can take you out before you realize it's there. My thoughts go out to their family, thanks for telling us about this.

"Edgar" and "Allen?" So where is "Poe?"

Bad Movie alarm goes off in the Nostalgia-ween intro *Reviews The Lost Boys*

“Death by stereo” 😎YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH

Channel Awesome is the only RU-vid channel that accurately syncs the commercial breaks

That was a very touching tribute to a really good fan. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones. I bet he would've loved to see your review of SK mini-series. Also RIP Joel.

Probably Joel Schumacher's best film, period.

I held off on watching this until Halloween today because this movie is my favorite movie ever. You Totally made my Halloween!!!! You nailed the heart and soul of this atmospheric masterpiece. I don’t know why they can’t make cool, badass films like this nowadays. Kiefer’s David is the coolest character that’s ever existed on film and the soundtrack’s legendary, most notably Cry Little Sister.

The NC referenced Calvin as Tracer Bullet!! My life is complete..

the intro to Nostalgiaween gets better every year. another great one.

Wonderful tribute to Joel Schumacher but man I love that Nostalgiaween intro. I especially love how they incorporated the Ghostbusters theme in this

you can tell Doug is emotionnal at the end. very touching

As soon as he pulled the box of frankenberries, I immediately had a nano second thought: What if he made a Commercials/Nostalgiaween special! I'm sure Doug could break the routine a bit.

Sam: "How can you afford all these vampire hunting equipment?" Edgar: :::whips out "Vampire Credit Card::: "Never leave the cave without it."

I’ve never been so impressed and horrified ad an opening before

Probably my favorite Nostalgiaween intro. I love how accurate they follow the intros they spoof too.

As someone who has visited Santa Cruz often, Lost Boys has a bunch of nostalgic elements to it like the stairs the characters rode their motorcycles onto the beach is unfortunately no longer there, so seeing that scene is like a time capsule. They also no longer have the caveman statues on the gondola rides, but they're still around for photo shoots with tourists. Also, a heads up: if you buy merch, be prepared for some of it to be pretty expensive. 0_0

The lost boys really gave the birth of the vampire movie Renaissance. Made them cool.. Until twilight ruined them for another 30 years..

Okay this rendition of the "THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS" is incredible. Like frame per frame exact copy. Well done

18:35 I wonder if next episode we'll be getting a review of "Golden Years" or "The Stand"?

“Who ya gonna call? Someone else!” -Dr. Raymond Stantz (circa 1995)

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR NOSTALGIAWEEN IN ANTICI............................PATION!!!!!

I once met Joel, he said hi and proceeded to make fun of my converse. Guess he lived up to the name “Shoe Mocker”

That intro... the name of the channel describes it perfectly

13:45 can't believe Doug didn't mention Interview with the Vampire

*Looks up next video about a 6 hour Stephen King miniseries called: The Stand* "a post-apocalyptic horror miniseries where someone spreads a weaponized version of influenza across the country" TOPICAL! /s

"The Lost Boys" How many boys did Peter Pan kidnap?

It's hard to believe we lost Joel Schumacher. I feel bad calling him Batman's most realistic arch nemesis.

May I just say that every year your Nostalgiaween opening animation/theme gets better and better? Amazing job by the animator and musician behind it, I always look forward to your show this time of year! Waha Waha Waha!

Nostalgia Critic: with the loss of Joel Schumacher... Me: WTF HE'S DEAD!? DAMMIT 2020!!

I cannot be the first one to notice he called Bram Stoker "Bram Stroker."

grandpa's line at the end is one of my favorite lines from all of cinema. it's just so fucking awesome

3:14 I was hitting a vape and i *nearly had a choking fit.*

So, what’s the intro this year? 0:14 GHOSTBUSTERS CARTOON STYLE! 👻

Angry video game nerd has his Rollin rock. Nostalgia critic has his franken berry.

Keifer Sutherland was scary in this movie!

Love the reference to Falling Down! Love that movie. My friend's parents thought it was going to be a comedy, and took us to it in the theater when we were like 13 years old.

The Nostalgiaween opening is probably the closest the cast has been in 7 months

14:59 Finally Doug makes a Bill And Ted reference!

Ohhhhhh SHEET coming in with a FULLY animated intro COMPLETE with cats to represent Chaplin and Buster. HELL YEAH. Though I still have to say the Gravity Falls on is S tier.

"Joel Scumacher is history's greatest monster!" -Robot Chicken

"He forgets he's falling for a minute" you clearly haven't been skydiving.

Review cats for nostalgia ween, it is the best horror movie of 2019😂

How did Doug not bring up this moment? "You've been eating pizza?" "No why?" "Oof you smell like garlic." *Sam hides garlic t shirt under his robe*
