Reviews
“After the rather unsuccessful“ Lost Boys: The Tribe ”the second sequel to Joel Schumacher's fresh and cheeky vampire hit“ The Lost Boys ”from 1987. Although the direct-to-DVD release still lags far behind the original, have the makers around director Dario Piana ("The Deaths of Ian Stone") at least put a little more effort into the plot. "
