Edgar Frog: "Let's get one thing straight, I hate damn vampires!"
The 2000s really were the wildest time for the horror genre. If it was an unnecessary reboot, it was also the unnecessary sequel. This was 94 minutes of my time in which I should have something far more constructive with my time.
Take two siblings - Chris Emerson (Tad Hilgenbrink) and his sister, Nicole (Autumn Reeser). Throw them into a certain town, renting a house from their aunt Jillian (Gabrielle Rose) and you'll see where this one will go.
The sister Nicole being the rebellious one of the bunch made some new friends such as surfer dude, Shane Powers (Angus Sutherland). It doesn't take long for Nicole to be tricked into drinking blood or for Shane and his friends to be the new vampires of this town.
It also didn't take long for Chris to "join" Shane and his gang in a bid to rescue his sister and stop her drinking from local boy Evan (Greyston Holt). Of course there's another aspect of this movie I've not touched on.
Having a link to the 1987 movie, there was also the return of Edgar Frog (Corey Feldman). He's become a vampire hunter, had an unconvincing grizzled accent and teamed up with Chris and Nicole to take out Shane and his friends. His performance was horrible and that's putting it mildly.
- A post credit scene revealed that Sam Emerson (Corey Haim) became a vampire between movies.
- Alan Frog (Jamison Newlander) had filmed scenes that were ultimately cut from the movie.
- Alternative scenes included subplots with Edgar, Sam and Alan that likely were meant to set up Lost Boys: The Thirst.
- Chronology: 2000s, Luna Bay in California.
Awful, just awful. I can vibe with a terrible sequel but when it's as draining and as dreadful as Lost Boys: The Tribe, I'd rather not. If you haven't seen it, don't bother.
Rating: 3 out of 10
