We dig into the 1987 cult classic The Lost Boys — how Joel Schumacher transformed it into MTV-era vampires on leather and motorcycles, the film's iconic soundtrack and gonzo 80s style, the standout scenes, and why it still matters to goth and vampire fans.

Along the way we announce podcast changes (book & movie club scheduling), new merch ideas like pins and stickers, upcoming events (Goth Barge, Spooky Frog), and give a playful survival rating if we stumbled into Santa Carla ourselves.
