Yeah, it didn't occur to me which Corey it was until someone mentioned their last names. I briefly saw their reality show and Feldman looked like he had gone totally straight while Haim looked like he was barely keeping it together. First it was Boner from Growing Pains, and now this.
One of my favorite vampire movies of all time. The frog brothers could kick some Twilight sissy boy a$$.
Not as if this news wasn't expected at some point. Don't know why, but Dream a Little Dream was always a favorite movie of mine. RIP.
I'm going to throw The Lost Boys on tonight. His laugh was great in that movie "Burn rubber, does not mean warp speed!" RIP
I always liked Corey Haim, I enjoyed some of his younger films like Lucas and Lost Boys of course. But it was apparent, certainly no secret that the guy just refused to get help for his drug problem. Now, I know the LA times article I read said it was possibly an accidental prescription overdose...but you just knew the guy was going to kill himself not getting help. ......If you do drugs.....f'n stop.
More reason to never get addicted to heavy drugs. Corey Haim at his worst below - <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/amB0c-PPUCs&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/amB0c-PPUCs&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
As professorjay notes above, Haim was the second after Boner Stabone of "Growing Pains" fame. Now we have number three, Merlin Olsen. R.I.P. Father Murphy.
Feldman got busted for heroin when he was young. It was pretty big news at the time. Haim's drug use went under the radar for a while. So everyone always thinks Feldman is the one with problems even though Feldman straightened his life out and Haim never did.
