Advantages: original, keeps you hooked
Disadvantages: bit far fetched at times

This is a new twist on the horror genre - its original and it works very well! There are plenty of shocks and keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout. The story is very good and is definitely one that works with all the sequels. It makes you jump and has plenty of blood and gore - a perfect horror film! This is definitely one for horror fans!

Advantages: Brilliant performance by Gary Oldman
Disadvantages: Terrible performance by Keanu Reeves

Bram Stoker would have been amazed if he knew that the stories his mother told him while he was sick in bed, would grow into one of the biggest myths and moneyspinners of the 20th century. Coppola's film is a gothic, sumptuous and rather overblown version of the novel. As for 'faithful' - I don't remember a bit where Lucy runs through the garden wearing a red curtain only to be shagged senseless by a bison. Or the bit at the beginning where Vlad ...
...- faithful to the book my arse! Never mind. Gary Oldman is fabulous as Dracula - sexy, anguished, and with an accent you can't place but somehow it sounds ancient, steeped in grandeur and blood. He's quite stunning in the role and you do feel for him. (Not like the book at all really where the Count doesn't actually appear that much and when he does, he's a red-eyed stinky breathed monster). Dracula comes back to England because he sees a picture ... Read review

Advantages: Lots of humour as well as interesting characters
Disadvantages: More alternative deaths and background for characters would be nice

This has got to be one of my favourite films for a long time. The cast are excellent, they each play their respective characters to the full. Yes they are stereotyped, but this is what makes it even better as they all have their own little twists. If you have the two disk version of this DVD it makes for an even better experience as you are able to choose some of the characters fates and access some bonus stuff that throws one of the characters into ...

Advantages: Tension, Suspense, Ghore
Disadvantages: Predictable

A group of friends get stranded in the back woods of Virginia. They find that they are not alone... They become hunted by cannibalistic mountain men and try to escape. This film is very similar to The Hills Have Eyes. Overall I think its a good film and will entertain those who enjoy this particular genre of film. Full of ghore, blood and guts, this film is definitely not for the faint-hearted, although The Hills have Eyes is worse on that part. ...
...are not bad. This film has some scary and some very tense moments such as a chase in the woods and I found it to be rather enjoyable, having watched it several times. Some of the special features of the dvd include extended and deleted scenes, the making of and some featurettes. Good standard predictable horror film. 8/10 ... Read review

Advantages: It is a classic: great acting, great plot, great effects, great everything.
Disadvantages: none I can think of

...vampire movie to watch. However, the movie Lost Boys is not like many vampire movies, and has been counted many times as a classic in this genre of horror.

The older brother is drawn to this vampire coven by a beautiful girl he sees, while the younger one meets two other teenage boys who claim to be ...
