Video: Corey Haim's Most Unforgettable Movie Moments
When Corey Haim was confirmed dead at age 38 on Wednesday, the troubled actor left behind a generation of fans with fond memories of his performances on film.
The young star's big break came in 1986, when he played the title role of a nerdy, picked-on teen in the hit high-school drama Lucas, costarring alongside Charlie Sheen and Winona Ryder.

A year later, he was a part of the ensemble in the vampire flick The Lost Boys, working with Kiefer Sutherland and, for the first time, the "other Corey" of the 80s, Corey Feldman.

He and Feldman collaborated many more times: including 1988's License to Drive and 1989's Dream a Little Dream.
As grown men, the pair teamed up again for the A&E reality show The Two Coreys in 2007 and 2008, in which Haim struggled with sobriety.

Tell Us What You Think
20I thought Corey Feldman was having a TRIBUTE to him what happened ??
I agree, Melissa. No one knows what he was going through or why. When I watched The Two Corey's, I wondered why a bigger deal wasn't made out of the big argument they had. Not trying to throw the deceased under the bus here, but it seemed like Corey H. was referring to Michael Jackson...and about things that were going on that Corey F. knew about. It left me confused and to draw my own conclusions, but something wasn't right, and I expected to hear more about it after that came out. Whatever Corey H. was talking about is what he claims led him to drugs. If he was molested in some way, that would make sense. Someone will say I'm jumping to conclusions or making assumptions, but that is what happened when something is left so open-ended like that. If you don't know what episode I'm talking about, don't knock it until you see it for yourself. At the time it aired, of course, MJ was still alive. When I saw that fight blow up between the two Corey's, I was shocked. I never knew anything about that, but it is relevant begin that Corey Feldman idolized MJ, the Corey's were always together then. It's really none of my business, but being that it came out on TV...I can't help but wonder what really happened.
it bothers me to read these mean comments that people have left about him. its so wrong. anyways haim and feldman were a great team. love u guys and God Bless his family and feldman. ur in my prayers.
kenzie i dont know u or didnt personally know him but u have no position to say those things. honestly this world is full of mean aweful people who love to judge people and talk about them and things like that are what cause people to be sad. no one person is perfect even you so stop and think of your own life before u set down and talk crap on someone that obvioulsy has a big heart and his easy way out was drugs. it took all the pain away. lifes hard and full of heartless mean people like you. i hope u feel bad for saying those things because you are not in any authority to judge him. maybe he did do selfish stuff but it sounds to me like he was honest about it and trying to help hisself but people like you who dont have hope or faith dont help anything. we are all selfish people. its our nature. theres so much pain in this world and its really hard to handle sometimes. those that are hard hearted wouldnt know or experince these feelings. look around and see for yourself. other people and their relationships. all relationships. if u just listen to people and the crap they say. its really sad. i just hope that he is in a better place now. where hes not hurting anymore.
i own liscense to drive and the lost boys. love them both. never seen lucas or their reality show. seen dream a little dream too and one other one he was in later. loved/enjoyed all his movies. he was so funny and cute. so sad hearing that he died. he will never be forgotten.
I still can't believe that he's gone. I has such high hopes for him. It was sad watch.ng him on "Lucas". He looks so little and innocent in that movie. And as years and years passed by you could still see the innocent, scared, lonely boy in him. I hope he's okay and in a better place now free of any pain. God rest his sweet soul! RIP COREY! You will FOREVER be missed!!
Some people just don't understand what it's like to be addicted. Even I don't really. R.I.P. Corey Haim. You got caught up in the wrong things. But no one has the right to judge you. Most of us, if put in your position, would've been dead a long time ago. God bless you. Rest in peace, angel.
He was very selfish and just plain stupid. citing over and over again that he knew drugs were going to take his life and he was ok with that...and everyone in america is sad? really? i have no sympathy for someone who is so proud to be on drugs and have drugs take their life. i'm glad he never made it past child hood stardum because what kind of role model is he? drugs are a crutch, an excuse and just plain laziness. if something has/is hurting you...deal with it the responsible and adult way. stop turning to drugs for relief and to "escape" because quite frankly....it's a bunch of BS
so sad! i loved him! funny and handsome and HONEST! i hate when the young go!
Amazing!! The media was ALWAYS riding Corey Feldman about his wild trips growing up, I didn't hear as much about Haim and he end up going first! God bless you Corey H. @ least whatever made you hurt sooo badly down here to be willing to shortened your so quickly is null & void now. Now the peace, love and acceptance you've probably searched for ALL your life is now fullfilled. Sleep and be @ Peace my friend. U were my childhood crush as well. Ms. Valarie
I loved the video, but in the end, it was sad how things came to be!
Truly heartbreaking.RIP Corey
I hope that feldman makes it through all of the media crap, I watched all of your movies growing up. GOD bless. :( How many times do we have to see this happen? :( He is in a better place now.
I am sooo sad. He was my biggest crush growing up. RIP Corey
i grew up to him, i admired him and always hoped he would recover.He was like River Phoenix very talented but other things got in the way. RIP MAN.
Sad that a talented person like he was is gone, he will be missed by many, God Bless the family. Rip Corey
Who cares about you? You pathetic piece of crap!
omg i am so sad that my childhood dream husband is gone its aweful that he struggled so much with drugs as so many have, except its what took his life and whats even sadder is that he has stated time and again he knew it was ganna take his life and was ok with it. i am a recovering addict of 3 yrs now and he and feldman on the 2 coreys were one of my therapys that helped me stay clean. i am so very sad he is gone and i am so very concerned on how corey feldman is handling this emense blow in his life. i will pray for the entire family on both sides of haim and feldman. be strong to feldmans son.... he will always always be with you.
RIP Corey!!
Sad that he's gone. RIP.
