Michael Emerson is a fictional character and protagonist of the 1987 film The Lost Boys portrayed by Jason Patric. Michael moves to Santa Carla, California from Phoenix, Arizona with his mother Lucy and brother Sam. During his time in Santa Carla, he becomes involved with a biker gang who are revealed to be vampires and is turned by their charismatic leader, David Powers.

Michael Emerson is the son of Lucy Emerson and the older brother to Sam. He is seen as being a relatively quiet teenager interested in fitness and motorcycles. He moves from his hometown of Phoenix, Arizona to Santa Carla, California after his mother's divorce. While there, Michael becomes infatuated with a girl named Star, who appears to be in a relationship with David Powers. David challenges Michael to a deadly motorcycle race, which Michael loses, and invites him back to their hangout. While at their hangout, David taunts Michael before eventually offering him wine, which was really David's blood, turning him into a half-vampire. David and his gang hang off the underside of an elevated train before each individually falling off. Eventually, Michael loses his grip and falls, before waking up in his own bed with a new ear piercing.

Michael's new status as a half-vampires eventually manifests itself when he begins reacting negatively to sunlight, constantly wearing sunglasses, and one night begins flying around the house involuntarily. He confides in his brother Sam to help him, as Sam had recently befriended self-proclaimed vampire hunters Edgar and Alan Frog (Corey Feldman and Jamison Newlander). Michael has another encounter with David where David attempts to persuade Michael into killing. Michael instead watches in horror and fear as David and his gang massacre a group of Surf Nazis. Michael returns home where he comes across Star, who reveals that she too is a half-vampire and Michael was intended to be her first victim, which would have turned her into a fully-fledged vampire.

🧠 In the beginning: He is responsible and protective, especially with his younger brother. Quite serious, calm, and rational.

He has an internal conflict between what is right and what attracts him. 💔 Deep down: He remains kind and sensitive. He is torn between his human side and the dark side that is beginning to emerge.

Michael and his family move there after his parents separate, and live with his grandfather. 📅 What year is it set in? The film is set in the 80s, basically in the same era in which it was released: 1987.
