What is The Lost Boys / Captain Kronos, Vampire Hunter about?

THE LOST BOYS, 1987, Warner Bros. 97 min. Jason Patric and little brother Corey Haim move to a California coastal town with their mother Dianne Wiest, only to find it infested by a gang of teenage, punk bloodsuckers led by Keifer Sutherland. Director Joel Schumacher helms this bizarre, spooky and often funny hybrid of the brat pack and vampire genres, bringing an authentically original California Gothic ambience to the proceedings. With Jamie Gertz, Corey Feldman, Edward Herrmann. CAPTAIN KRONOS, VAMPIRE HUNTER, 1973, Paramount, 91 min. Dir. Brian Clemens. KRONOS recasts the vampire myth as a swashbuckling adventure, with the dashing swordsman, Kronos (Horst Janson) hacking up the undead like a gothic Toshiro Mifune. The divine Caroline Munro nearly walks away with the film as Kronos’ love interest, in this handsome – and very rarely-screened – Hammer Films production.
