The Lost Boys premieres in New York City in 1987. The horror comedy is directed by Joel Schumacher and stars Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Corey Feldman, Corey Haim, Dianne Wiest, Edward Hermann, Jaime Gertz, and Barnard Hughes. The teenage vampire film receives mixed reviews, but is a solid box-office success and wins the Best Horror Film at the Saturn Awards and spawns two direct-to-video sequels.
