‘Lost Boys’ Stars Corey Feldman, Alex Winter and Jamison Newlander Say Joel Schumacher ‘Reinvented Vampires’ (Video)
TheWrap: Would we have as many vampire movies today if it weren’t for this movie?Winter: Gosh, I hate to be cocky enough to say no. I think Joel’s vision, which could have not worked, but because of his brilliance did work, was to kind of reinvent what vampires were and how they function within their community. He slammed rock and roll and Brando and Dean and “The Goonies” and all these tropes together into one big stew. When was the last time you rewatched “The Lost Boys?”Corey Feldman: [Looks at watch] About three hours ago.Jamison Newlander: Last time I watched it all the way through was probably six years ago. Feldman: We played film clips during the whole Summer of Santa Carla convention in San Antonio, Texas, so every night I’m looking back and watching clips from the movie.
