The Lost Boys got their asses kicked


Marko doesn't even make it out of his cave/coffin.

Paul gets knocked into a bath tub of holy water by a dog.

Death by Stereo for Dwayne by Sam who isn't even a Vampire hunter.

David puts up the best fight against Michael but is taken care of with relative ease.

reply

True, but Michael was a pretty strong guy, I totally bought him taking out David.

Nanook basically waxed Paul, and the bathtub ended up being a neat trap set up by the Frog Bros. They just kinda distracted the vampire by throwing water on him while the dog did all the work.

Sam was kind of the main character, so it makes sense that he gets to take out one of the vampires with the bow and arrow, which was awesome. Death by stereo!

Marko was sleeping and the Frog Bros sucker punched him.

However, if Grandpa didn't show up at the end then Max would've got everyone in the room. He seemed too powerful for everyone.

He was my C.O. in Nam. CIA listed him as MIA but the V.A. ID'd his M.O. and put out an APB.

reply

Yeah they're all pretty expendable to Max. He can always just convert others as he probably has done for thousands of years. But when Grandpa got him - that was the big deal.

reply

They were all taken out pretty... convincingly. :) And it was all done in such epic fashion.

The Frogg brothers, Sam and Nanook kicked major ass.

reply

The one Frogg brother got taken out in the sequel, right?

reply

No, I don’t recall seeing such thing in the 2008 sequel. It’s been many years since I last saw that movie - in no hurry to see it again - but I’m sure that didn’t happen.

After all, the Frogg brothers did reunite in the third movie (The Thirst) and I think they both survived there as well. Always loved the thought of a Frogg brothers movie but I rather forget about those sequels and stick to the ‘87 classic.

I was like "that's it?!". Very Home Alone-ish.

reply

Yeah, they were pathetic. Totally lost!
