The Lost Boys

Event

Celebrate Halloween at the NFSA with a special screening of The Lost Boys, the cult 1980s vampire classic that blends horror, comedy and rock-and-roll rebellion. The evening begins with a themed party in the NFSA's heritage courtyard, featuring 80s tunes from a live DJ, costume prizes and a complimentary cocktail or mocktail, before the film screens in Arc Cinema. Stylish, funny and endlessly quotable, The Lost Boys remains one of the most beloved vampire films ever made and the perfect way to spend Halloween night.
