History for Characters/TheLostBoys

* SexEqualsLove: Michael and Star really don't share that many lines with each other before they [[spoiler: have sex halfway through the film.]]
* SexyDiscretionShot: Michael and Star's first time, which shows them kissing on a bed then cuts to images of clouds in the sky. [[spoiler: The faint bat-noises and constantly shifting camera angles imply that this is actually the POV of the Lost Boys returning home right before sunrise, which might explain why David wasn't upset about Star having sex with Michael instead of making him her first kill; he was in too much of a hurry to get to the cave before sunrise to notice!]] While the original scene lasted about three times longer, it didn't get any more explicit (you can't even be sure if Star is actually topless or Michael just slid down the straps of her camisole).

* IAteWhat: Michael is tricked into drinking blood by prior illusions that make it look like his Chinese food is worms one minute, noodles the next, and again with rice/maggots [[note]]it's left somewhat ambiguous which is the illusion and which is real[[/note]]. By the time that he's told that the red beverage in the bottle is blood, he doesn't believe anything he hears.
--> '''David:''' ''(to Michael as he's eating some of the Chinese food)'' Maggots. You're eating maggots, Michael, how do they taste?
--> '''Star:''' ''(to Michael as he is about to drink from the bottle of "red wine")'' Don't. It's blood.

* HeroicWillpower: Michael uses this at the last minute to defeat David.
* HippieName: Discussed. Michael suspects his love interest Star had flowerchild parents because of her name, and mentions he came very close to having a Hippie Name himself.
-->'''Star''': What do you mean?\\
'''Michael''': Ex-hippies. I came this close to being called Moon Beam or Moon Child or something.

* DistractedByTheSexy: Michael promises Sam he'll find answers to his new vampire problem, and sneaks out to go get answers from Star, but winds up just having sex with her instead. He comes back the next morning as solution-less as he ~~left,~~left.

* EyeColorChange: Vampires' eyes go from their natural colour to golden-red when they transform into 'vampire mode'.

* {{Bowdlerization}}: When the movie aired on network television, a scene of Michael pointing to a plant outside the window and miming smoking pot was removed, and "a God-damned shit-sucking vampire" lost not only the shit-sucking but also God. The shot of Michael's bleeding hand after Nanook bites him was removed, making it seem like he'd just been pushed out of the room by the dog. Oddly, however, every single bit of flying blood and violence at the bonfire slaughter was left intact.

Deleted line(s) 7,8 (click to see context) :

* AffablyEvil: [[spoiler:Max]]. To some degree, David and the rest of the Lost Boys as well. David seems to honestly like Michael and see him as a friend and believes he's giving him a gift by making him a vampire, seeing his existence as a neverending party.

Added DiffLines:

* BigBrotherInstinct: Michael naturally has this toward Sam. Star also exhibits the big sister instinct toward Laddie, a young boy that the vampire gang kidnapped and started the process of turning into a vampire, as she wants to get him out of the gang with her, and protects him from the Frog brothers when they threaten to stake him. David attempts to be this to Michael. [[spoiler:It doesn't take]].
