I probably won't get all that many done this year... but I would like to. And I do have an extremely high goal. Just don't think I have any chance of hitting that goal.  :bag:

Yeah... I guess it is... but I have been collecting for 15 years now. Plus horror is my all time favorite genre... so it majorly added up on me.

I formatted a new review template for my horror marathon... fashioned after the current one some of us has been using....




     The Lost Boys: Two-Disc Special Edition (1987/United States)
Wikipedia |IMDb |Trailer |

Warner Home Video
Director:Joel Schumacher
Writing:Janice Fischer (Story By), James Jeremias (Story By), Janice Fischer (Screenwriter), James Jeremias (Screenwriter), Jeffrey Boam (Screenwriter)
Length:97 min.
Rating:R
Video:Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1
Audio:English: Dolby Digital: 5.1, French: Dolby Digital: 2-Channel Stereo, Commentary: Dolby Digital: 2-Channel Stereo
Subtitles:English, French, Spanish

Stars:
Jason Patric as Michael
Corey Haim as Sam
Dianne Wiest as Lucy
Barnard Hughes as Grandpa
Edward Herrmann [Ed Herrmann] as Max
Kiefer Sutherland as David

Plot:
Sam and his older brother Michael are all-American teens with all-American interests. But after they move with their mother to peaceful Santa Carla, California, things mysteriously begin to change. Michael's not himself lately. And Mom's not going to like what he's turning into.

The Lost Boys reshapes vampire tradition, deftly mixing heart-pounding terror, rib-tickling laughs and a body-gyrating rock soundtrack. Under Joel Schumacher's direction, a marvelous cast - Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman, Corey Haim, Barnard Hughes and Edward Herrmann - stakes you to gleefully ghoulish entertainment.

Extras:
  • Scene Access
  • Audio Commentary
  • Feature Trailers
  • Deleted Scenes
  • Featurettes
  • Gallery
  • Multi-angle
  • Music Videos
  • Closed Captioned


My Thoughts:



My Rating
Out of a Possible 5



Count:
Movie Count: 0
TV Ep. Count: 0
Other Count: 0




I experimented with some horror/Halloween bars to replace the horizontal lines.... but it really threw off the look of the review so scrapped it.... and ended up with the above. I still need to work on something for the TV Show episodes I review.

So does this mean you really didn't like the film?  The skull and cross bones can't be a good indicator :)
Thank you

 :laugh: That isn't a review... that is just a blank entry from the template! The skull and crossbones will look just like the stars currently do. For example they will look something more like...

My Rating
Out of a Possible 5


The one that you see on the template is just a placeholder for the address where I keep the images at.  :P

Good .. since you were using a real film and all it looked like either a film you really didn't like or something got lost in the cut/paste.

Cool ..
Thank you

I have only been to Munich twice in my life and never for the Octoberfest.

I will go to Octoberfest on Ocober 16, a German restaurant in the area does that or three weeks, incl. a small typical band. With a group of Taiwanese friends it's actually quite fun...
