Corey Haim R.I.P.

[Earth 2 Chris]

He actually had some decent acting chops for a kid. After him and Feldman got popular, they started taking roles where they pretty much played their public personas, and I had no interest in that.

He seemed to even allude the has-been celebrity TV circuit that his pal Feldman fell into. At least that keeps him working I guess.

It's pitiful all the way around.

He was supposed to have a role in Lost boys 2 but he was so lit with prescription drugs that he couldn't get his lines right so after a bunch of fruitless takes, the director pulled the plug and they wrote him out of the movie apart from a quick appearance at the very end. A tragic end for a troubled man. Sad!

I'm not all that surprised either, but it's always ashame when someone dies that young.

[highquality]

My age. Wow. I'm sad for his family. Nobody deserves that kind of loss.

[kingdom warrior]

Not surprising but really sad........

Corey Haim wasn't on growing pains.

Ooop, I am confusing him w/Kirk Cameron!

[Gorn Captain]

It's still sad to see someone die at that age.

[spamn]

Never watched anthing he played in except Stephen King's Silver Bullet

He was good in 'Lucas'.

Corey Haim wasn't on growing pains.

I think this may be connected with the death/suicide, of his good friend Andrew Koenig, who starred on Growing Pains with him. I think it's likely Corey Haim became depressed after his friend was discovered dead and probably turned to drugs. He may not have intended necessarily to OD but that's the way it turned out.

[The Toyroom]

I always thought Corey Feldman would've been the first to check out....

[txteach]

Well I am a bit suprised. He was way too young. He could have had a bright future if he never found drugs.

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

That's very sad. May he RIP.

That's a real pity. Whatever his issues may have been, 38 is entirely too young. May he find the peace that eluded him in life.
