Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die. It's fun to be a vampire. Sam and his older brother Michael are all-American teens with all-American interests. But after they move with their mother to peaceful Santa Carla, California, things mysteriously begin to change. Michael's not himself lately, and Mom's not going to like what he's turning into. (Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)

Despite a perfect start, as the film introduces us to the wild world of Southern California beaches inherited by the offspring of hippies, it eventually switches gears to a Goonies-esque coming-of-age story about grown-up kids, in which producer Richard Donner tries to squeeze every last dime out of his success. A storyline about a teenage boy's vampire initiation in an overwhelming new setting and a storyline where funny boy maniacs trying to beat vampire dad with comic books beat each other to a bloody pulp, and you're sorry, because if these were two normal standalone movies, maybe they could be friends.
