Should have stayed lost
Shooting starts in a couple weeks on Lost Boys 2: The Tribe (formerly Lost Boys: Devil May Cry), direct-to-video continuation of Joel Schumacher's awful, widely liked 1987 original. Casting not confirmed, but directorial duties will be handled by one P.J. Pesce, whose feature work is now 50% sequel: From Dusk Till Dawn 3, Sniper 3, and now Lost Boys. Despite the admittance in his clearly self-penned IMDB biography that he received an F from De Palma at film school, and without having seen any of his films, I'm going to assume he's at least Schumacher's equal.
Fortunately, the long-discussed Lost Girls sequel no longer appears to be in the works; an IMDb 2009 listing is for an unrelated film. (Rumors a few years ago had listed Rachel Leigh Cook, Tara Reid and Kate Hudson.) Fans will have to make do with the "unrelated" 2005 Lost Girls, about five female aliens mistaken for vampires.
Also, I would be remiss in not mentioning that Lost Boys 2 is about surfing vampires. I was under the impression that vampires tended to avoid water, but then, I'm more of a zombie mythologist myself.
