Vampire hunter Edgar Frog (Corey Feldman) is hired by novelist Gwen Lieber (Tanit Phoenix) to find her missing brother Peter (Felix Mosse) and destroy head vampire DJ X (Seb Castang), who is planning an underground rave to raise an undead army by passing out free doses of a drug known as "the thirst" but which is actually vampire blood that will turn them into "half vampires". Because his brother Alan (Jamison Newlander) declines to help, Edgar teams up with his friend Zoe (Casey B. Dolan) who works at the Book O'Neer comic book shop. When the group finally finds DJ X, however, they are in for a shock.
Lost Boys: The Thirst is the third movie in the Lost Boys franchise, preceded by The Lost Boys (1987) and Lost Boys: The Tribe (2008) (2008). It was filmed from a script by Ivan Charnov and Hans Rodionoff and based on characters created by American screenwriters Janice Fischer and James Jeremias for the first film.
After impaling DJ X, Edgar and Alan are surprised to see that nothing has changed. None of the half-vampires are reverting back to human, and they realize that the true alpha vampire is actually Peter. DJ X was simply keeping Peter weak by feeding him with garlic until he could be sacrificed during the blood moon and his power transferred into X's body. Edgar also learns that Gwen (who is not Peter's sister) lured him there so that Peter could turn him into his personal vampire hit-man charged with keeping the growing number of vampires in check. When Edgar charges at Peter, Peter orders Alan to kill Edgar, so the brothers go at each other. In the middle of the fight, Edgar manages to pull down a water hose and douse Peter with it. He then quickly blesses the water, causing Peter to explode. At the same time, all the half-vampires, including Alan, turn back into humans. The final scene takes place in the Book O'Neet where Zoe is stocking the shelves. Edgar admits that he has to learn about all the goings-on in the Dark Underworld and tells her about a legend that says female werewolves can turn themselves at any time, not just during the full moon. "That's an interesting theory," Zoe replies as her eyes begin to glow yellow.
