22i dont think he isnt using from the drugs but many time i already heard that he been sick alot that reason why i beleive he didnt do that
Lost Boys was my favorite. He was a talent that will be missed. It is too sad that his life was so painful he had to go to drugs to help him get through life. I would never wish my kids a career in Hollywood, it has taken away too many good lives.
RIP ++++++++ WHERE WERE OUR FRIEDS TO HELP?
Having lost 3 family members to prescription abuse, I can say with a soft, broken heart that addiction is a terrible disease. Unfortunately, celebrities don't seem to have any easier of a time coming clean then us everyday folks; but why should they, they are only human. Society seems to think that just because you are a celebrity, you have a different genetic makeup and that is proving itself time and time again to not be the case. Unless you or someone you loved has suffered from addiction, you really have NO idea how hard it is. For the few that do come clean, it is an EVERYDAY battle to stay clean. Please, out of respect for Corey, his family and all the other families out there suffering this same terrible loss and struggle, don't judge and criticize. Although I am very sorry for his loss and the devestation his family is going through, I find peace to know that he is now in a better place, at peace and no longer having to fight his daily demons. Many heartfelt blessings to his family!
hey let's get this straight. This Kid/Guy had the wold buy the balls at a very young age. Were the hell were the parents. I know It's Hollywood but that Is no excuse riding the wave and letting your kid run wild. It's amazing any of these kids get out alive.
GET CHRIS BROWN SONGZ ON THE RADIO STATIONS COME ON GIVE HIM A BREAK!
@Charlene: Go back to Arkansas and preach your bullsh!t there. As for Corey, I`m very sorry that he died, he seemed like a really sweet guy.
I first saw Corey in "Murphy's Romance" and he was superb! So natural, so quick-witted, such God given talent. He held his own with such ease against a towering James Garner and a Sally Field in her prime. "Lucas" was even more impressive. But when he started to play leads in teen flicks like "License To Drive" I kinda knew that Hollywood was going to lift him high up only to drop him once he outgrew his currency as a teen. It's happened too many times before. Tragic waste of a life and a genuine talent.
Cory was adorable it sucks that they keep dropping like flys. First Brad now him
PS... Corey Feldman has been clean for 2 decades and Corey Haim's agent claims he was clean for the past 1.5 years. They are both very talented. Why weren't they working? I would've wanted to see Haim working and am still waiting for Feldman to grace the big screen as a top star again.
I loved Corey Haim and Corey Feldman back in the 80's and I have always wanted them to come back. Haim' s story is so sad, yet so typical. We love the beautiful young people, then spit them out. Did he do drugs because he didn't get work or did he NOT get work because he did drugs? We gave Robert Downey Jr. and many others more chances. Why didn't Corey Haim and Corey Feldman get more work? They were clean for so long. What a shame. Anyway, Corey Haim's agent said he was clean of drugs, but once he quit the crack, etc. he just replaced them with prescription drugs.Corey Feldman, Pauley Shore, etc. in the 2 Coreys really tried to help him and he couldn't see that they cared or that he had a problem. Corey Feldman and Corey Haim repeatedly said Haim would always be an addict or in and out of rehab. Why? I think Hollywood must be just the best place for addicts. I guess everyone's partying, but there are also people who are Christians. I wish he'd found his life drug by having been a popular actor again. Maybe he wouldn't have been so fragile emotionally.It seems like his body was so weakened from taking prescription drugs and the years of taking serious drugs that a simple flu resulted in his death. Pray for his mother and those who knew him. Pray our children, our neices, nephews, husbands, wives, siblings, will never go through this or p[ut us through this type of pain. This year, Brittany Murphy, Michael Jackson and Corey Haim all died too early. Yikes.
my deepest sympathy for corey h.we gonna miss u, love u in the movie lost boys i hope u were saved through jesus our lord.r.i.p. corey
I was so stunned when i heard about the death of cory haim...he was such a good actor in alot of movies..my heart and prayers go out to his family and all of his friends.
I am sorry for the pain for this family due to (susposedly) drugs. I didnt know this young man..but watched his talent as a movie star..I have a question...DONT PEOPLE IN HOLLYWOOD EVER KNOW JESUS AND WHAT HE CAN DO FOR THEM????? DO THEY ALWAYS JUST PARTY AND NEVER KNOW THAT LIFE HERE AS THEY KNOW IT WILL END UP IN DEATH..AND THERE IS A HEAVEN AND A HELL????? Please spread the word JESUS SAVES....
Foolish waste of a life, people tried to help you but you wouldn't listen, now it's over, rip.
I am getting sick and tired of the waste.

My sincere sadness for Corey and his family. When will we ever learn, I wonder.
So sad, I have seen the lives of many taken by drugs. Why risk trying them, they take over your mind and body and very few ever make it back.
i cant beleve hes dead so young and so talanted see what drugs do
