Calling all ‘Lost Boys': Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk's free movies return in June
DON YOUR LEATHER JACKET — you may need it even on a cool June night in Santa Cruz — and throw your favorite saxophone cassette into your neon-hued Walkman: "The Lost Boys" is swooping back to a storied stretch of sand that is, to many devoted fans, no less than LostBoyville. We are, of course, vamping over the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, a venerable seaside playland known for its old-timey attractions — the Giant Dipper, the famous wooden roller coaster, is turning 100 in 2024 — and tasty, gooey, melty, sugar-dipped treats. And, yes, a certain band of vampires who shot to the cinema stratosphere back in 1987 and stayed there thanks to repeat at-home viewings and numerous revival screenings. The boardwalk has paid big-screen tribute to Michael, Sam, and the other enduring characters of "The Lost Boys" with past showings, but be cheered, "Lost" lovers: The film is kicking off the 2024 Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk FREE Movies on the Beach outdoor film series.
