Lost Boys [4K Ultra HD]

Product Information

Vamping Out: The Undead Creations of Greg Cannom– We get a look at the make-up used in the movie as well as some history from Cannom and his career. However by also cleverly focussing on the seductive aspects of life as a Lost Boy – do what you want, go where you want, take what you want, BE what you want….. – it brilliantly doubled up as teenage wish fulfilment on an epic level at the exact same time. David is the true legacy of The Lost Boys…. a brilliantly crafted poster boy for the 1980s - charisma flowing through his veins instead of blood, an attitude that burnt out of him like wildfire and those cheekbones that made everyone want to either be him or be with him, regardless of gender or sexuality. One of cinema’s coolest characters, he looms large over the film and the era, even with his fairly limited screentime.

Also today, Stephen has taken a look at Anthony Mann’s The Naked Spur (1953) on Blu-ray from MGM via the Warner Archive Collection. Except Beetlejuice eventually came out, and not on Halloween, so maybe people should have patience. There are also multiple subtitle varieties on offer including English, German and Spanish SDH, as well as Spanish, Dutch and French regular subtitle options. I've watched this a million times at home on VHS then DVD and Blu-ray and I never once noticed that when the Frog brothers come out from the lair after the first staking covered in vampire blood that it sparkles like glitter in the sun light. There’s another classic horror movie coming to 4K, Warner Bros are releasing The Lost Boys 4K UHD + Blu-ray this September in the United Kingdom.FYI: Cineworld are screening this in a new brand 4K 'restoration,' so I think it's a safe bet that a UHD is on the way.

This is a stellar upgrade from the previous blu ray and the film sparkles with its 4k presentation and I’ve seen this film countless times but this surpasses every release by miles and felt I was watching it for the first time. Stunning 💀 The Lost Boys' is actually a lot less interesting than it sounds. Directed by Joel Schumacher and shot by Oscar-winning cinematographer Michael Chapman, the film has a wonderfully glossy and rich visual look, but not much more going for it. The story of a teenager drawn to the dark side of vampirism had the potential to explore adolescent issues rarely touched by mainstream horror cinema, yet these facets are largely jettisoned by the obvious script that plays it too safe. Any subversive possibilities are largely tossed aside in favor of standard genre thrills and overt humor, which, while making the film entertaining, ultimately render it vapid. We reviewed this Region free UK Ultra HD Blu-ray release on a JVC-DLA N5 Ultra HD 4K projector and a Panasonic DP-UB9000 Dolby Vision/HDR10 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player. Inside the Vampire’s Cave – four featurettes, including ‘A Directors Vision’, ‘Comedy vs Horror’, ‘Fresh Blood’ and ‘The Lost Boys Sequel?’ – 18 mins totalAs of right now, the U.S. release will include two discs - one in 4K Ultra HD and the other a Blu-ray disc, both harnessing the power of the top-tier resolution and audio that we’ve come to expect with 4K re-releases. No extras have been announced at this time, but hopefully, they’ll be added as we get closer to the date.
