Now available! RiffTrax Presents THE LOST BOYS with Janet Varney and ME!
Now available!
Click here to check it out!
Joel “Can we please stop talking about how I put nipples on the Batsuit?” Schumacher’s 1987 teen vamp flick The Lost Boys is everything Twilight wishes it could be and then some. SWOON over pretty boy Michael (Jason Patric) and his vamp nemesis David (Kiefer Sutherland, peroxided beyond recognition)! LAUGH at those wacky comic-book collecting vamp hunters The Frog Brothers (Corey Feldman, who probably doesn’t remember making this movie, and Jamison Newlander, who probably doesn’t get remembered for making this movie)! SCREAM at Corey Haim’s horribly dated wardrobe! And SIGH wondering why Dianne Wiest and Edward Herrmann signed on to be in this thing. Oh…and… something about Jami Gertz.
Returning to the RiffTrax booth are Cole Stratton (who seriously loves this movie) and Janet Varney (who seriously loves that Cole seriously loves this movie). They hope you’ll give it a download…since they have so much at STAKE. Get it? Stake?*
*Janet Varney wishes that it be known that she strongly disapproves of that last joke and that Cole takes full responsibility for it.**
** Cole Stratton is wearing sunglasses indoors and thinks it’s hilarious.

When Midnight Madness starts to get to you...
One of my all time favorite movies growing up was the Disney produced all-night scavenger hunt comedy Midnight Madness. Teams from a local college descend upon L.A. tracking clue after clue in Leon's game--there's the heroic yellow team led by An American Werewolf In London's David Naughton (with Michael J. Fox in tow, in his first big screen appearance); the evil Blue team, following the orders of a spoiled lazy rich kid (Animal House's Stephen Furst); the Red all-ladies team with identical giggling twins; the Green jock squad nicknamed the Meat Machine; and the nerdy white team with Eddie Deezen (Grease and 1941). It also features Paul Reubens as a pre-Pee Wee video arcade employee. I've probably seen it twenty or thirty times...and I simply adore the disco theme song. So much that...yes...I've done an all-vocal cover of it.

They just don't make 'em like that anymore...
As a life-long cinema enthusiast, there's nothing I like better than discussing (or heatedly arguing about) movies--whether its defending a widely-snubbed film, gushing about a classic, trashing a brainless blockbuster, or bringing attention to an over-looked gem.

Maggots, Michael! You're eating maggots!
I've never been much of a fan of horror movies, but as a teenager I had a serious obsession with the Joel Schumacher vampire flick The Lost Boys. It was one of those beautiful mash-ups of a movie--combining dark humor, schlocky effects, eye-catching cinematography, a hip young cast, and a killer soundtrack (Echo and the Bunnymen covering The Doors, two INXS tracks, Roger Daltrey, Mummy Calls, Lou Gramm, and Tim Cappello, best remembered shirtless, with long greasy hair, wearing a snake and wailin' on a saxophone).
