I've heard it said Joel Schumacher didn't want the vampire effects to hinder the good looks of the actors. I think he achieved that.

The effects are simple, not grotesque, but scary yet still very attractive.

I wish we got more clear, focused shots of the boys in full makeup for the vampires.

Like damn, even in pain Paul is one tasty creature of the night. 😍 It's got to be the wet hair.

Marko is another one I think looks the sexiest in full vampire makeup. He just pulls it off so well. 😘

Can't forget this one of Dwayne. This picture DOES things to me. 🥰

And of course, the day I don't find this man FINE is the day I go blind! 👀

Wanted to draw/practice some of these outfit finds I saw on Pinterest that inspired me for Chrysta's look in my Lost Boys Fic The White Wedding AU, and just wanted to see how she'd look in a couple! So here's some of the outfits she'd wear around the ruins of the Chapel [And a few I think the boys would like to see her in 👀] Along with her original sacrificial gown. Lemme know which one looks best on her~

#I think the shimmery gray one was the funnest #🍒daily dose of cherry🍒#fruitbats🦇🍒#🦇🤍White Wedding AU🤍🦇#the lost boys #the lost boys 1987 #tlb #tlb 1987 #the lost boys fanfiction

Hi, it’s me again.

Could you do 9 & 17 with Dwayne? Maybe the reader was raised by vampire hunters but they don’t like violence so they spend all their life researching instead of training to fight vampires? Just a suggestion you have all the creative liberties

9. Why are you reading at the boardwalk?

17. I did everything you asked, and still you talk to me as if I'm nothing!

Ooh I love this idea!!! Thank you so much for requesting - I really hope you like this!

-------------------------------

"There are vampires in this town. We need to handle quickly, before they know we're here."

My father stood at the front of the table and bowed down over a map of Santa Carla. My mother was washing the wooden stakes with holy water, and my sister was busy practising her fighting moves. I sighed, curled up in the chair by the window.

"Why can't we just let them be?"

"They kill people."

"Isn't hunting them down also killing people?" I asked, but the second I did I knew I went to far.

"You listen to me, child!" My father stomped towards me, grabbing my chin. "You're a part of this family, and we are destined to protect the world from vampires. We've allowed you to stay behind because you refuse to fight, but I will hear none of this nonsense!"

"But-"

"These creatures are evil, demons that poison the world. And if you do not stand with us, then you're against us. You're just as bad as them."

I stood from my chair, trembling with anger. "How dare you?! I did everything you asked, and still you talk to me as if I am nothing! Why can't you just accept that I don't consider vampires a threat? Why must you kill them?" In the past year, I had researched everything I could, from behaviours to living situations - and I could only draw one conclusion out of all of it. Vampires weren't worse than humans. In fact, humans were more vicious killers than they were. Humans kill so many, not just people but also animals - simply for their pleasure (in the case of animals) or because it is expected from them in situations of war. But vampires, as horrible as they are, only kill because they need to in order to survive. And if they find a way for themselves to enjoy the killing, to make it bearable for them? Is that truly that bad? Does it truly make them worse than humans? I didn't think so.

My father turned to me, his stare turned ice cold. "Matthew -" my mother tried to calm him down, but he pushed her away. My sister had left the room, probably not willing to hear the same old argument again.

"You lost your brother because of those monsters. Or have you forgotten that?"

I glared at him. "Those killers have been dealt with."

"Exactly. And that's what we need to do here."

"But they didn't hurt us!"

"Get out!" My father now growled, and without looking back, I ran. I grabbed my bag, ran out of the house, and didn't stop running until I saw people.

I stopped to catch my breath, closing my eyes as I tried to fight tears. I missed my brother a lot, but it didn't justify the slaying of vampires. It didn't. It wasn't right, and it pained me more than I liked to admit that my family couldn't see that.

I entered the boardwalk, finding a way through the crowds. In the bag I'd taken was one of my favourite books, and I knew that I needed to read right now. I needed to clear my head and get away from the trouble at home. I didn't like the idea of reading on the sand, to afraid the sand would get stuck between the pages and damage the book. So, I walked around looking for a better spot.

I sighed as I found an empty bench at the boardwalk, a bright streetlantern right above it. It was a perfect spot to read. As I sat down, curling my legs up beneath me, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness wash over me. If they could only just accept me for who I was, and accept that I would never be like them...

I opened my book, and before I knew it, I was engulfed in the story. The laughter of the people on the boardwalk disappeared into the far background of my mind. The movements of the crowds disappeared from my sight. It was just me and my book. I had read it many a time before, every single time turning back to it. If the count cared so much for Mina, so much that in the end, he begged her to kill him so she could be free - then he wasn't truly evil, was he?

"Been a long time since I've seen anyone with that book."

I jumped, startled by the voice in front of me. I looked up and saw a handsome man looking at me.

"It's one of my favourites."

He smiled as he sat down next to me. "Why are you reading at the boardwalk?"

"It's more quiet here," I said with a soft smile. "Here I can get lost in the story, but at home..." I shook my head. "It's easier to read here."

"I'm Dwayne."

I gave him my name, finding myself enjoying his presence. There was something about him. We talked for hours. About the book I was reading now, about books we both had read - and by the time the boardwalk closed, I found myself considering him a close acquaintance.

"Do you want to meet again sometime?" I asked him, feeling more shyly than I had anticipated.

"How about we go out for dinner tomorrow? I'll meet you at the boardwalk at eight."

I smiled, nodding. "Sounds good. I'll see you then!"

Dwayne drove off, feeling contemplated. He knew that they were a member of a family of hunters, but nothing about them gave him any warning signs. In everything they'd talked about that evening, they had seem very positive towards vampires. No, they weren't a threat, he decided. Maybe even an asset if push came to shove. The question was, would that stay that way when they realised that they were destined to be a vampire themselves?

Ok. No hate (but kinda am), am i the only one who finds shipping the lost boys together gross? I mean, theyre brothers. Even if they werent born from the same parents they all drank max's blood, making max their dad from blood relation, making the lost boys blood related. And even if you argue thats not what the drinking of the blood means, all throughout the movie they are described as Max's children, making them brothers by description.

Idk, seeing ship art of them together or people making posts about shipping them always made me uncomfy because the movie describes them as brothers, it just feels so icky.

Especially since no where throughout the movie are they seen being romantic with each other, which just adds on to the fact that they probably SEE each other as brothers even if they technically arent (which im pretty sure they technically are).

Maybe im just autistic and taking the familial terms in the movie too seriously but im starting to think me and like half of the lost boys fandom watched a different movie 😭😭😭

"Vampires are hot. They're the only erotic monsters. Frankenstein is not hot."

Joel Schumacher, talking about why he made The Lost Boys (1987)

#i don't necessarily agree with him that vampires are the ONLY sexy monsters but i think this is very funny #the lost boys #the lost boys 1987 #tlb #80s horror #horror #vampires #vampire #lost boys #joel schumacher #quote
