Film opening analysis: The Lost Boys (1987)


  • We hear voices before we are in the car (audio bridge)
  • Several ELS (helicopter shot) every shot gets closer until we are in the specific car.
    • Very similar to the film psycho. ES pans right left until we are in the specific house
Editing:
  • Every first shot beat changes beat
Location:
  • In an environment where's a lot of green (trees) which signify a small town.
Music:
  • Mixture of fast and slow music

  • Cross-fade / ellipses (day to night time)
  • High angle to signify that they are vulnerable
