The Watchers Watch The Lost Boys (1987)

The Watchers

About this episode

This week, Andrea and Jodie sink their teeth into Joel Schumacher’s 1987 teen vampire classic, The Lost Boys. We talk about the decade’s obsession with abandoned hideouts, the movie’s blatant disregard for established vampire lore, and our shared childhood dream of running away to live with a group of wayward teens in one of those aforementioned abandoned hideouts. Plus: The Lost Boy’s Goonies-esque origins, national treasure, Dianne Wiest, and the incredible history of the world’s most important bodybuilding saxophone player.

From California vampires to New England witches, we’re trading leather for linen and watching 1998’s Practical Magic
