The Lost Boys refer to the Peter Pan characters who never grow old… like vampires.

The brothers meet self-proclaimed vampire hunters Edgar (Corey Feldman) and Alan Frog (Jamison Alexander). Michael gets drawn into the world of a biker gang and their charismatic leader David (Kiefer Sutherland).

This was Corey Haim and Corey Feldman's first film together, which marked the start of a popular 1980s trend “The Two Coreys,” in which Feldman and Haim starred together in a number of teenage films. The film helped to kicked off a wave of youth-centric horror films from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the Twilight saga.
