Another 80s "star" gone.

TMZ

Actor Corey Haim died this morning of an apparent overdose -- possibly accidental -- according to LAPD. He was 38.

Police tell us they were called to St. Joseph's hospital in Burbank, CA shortly before 4AM PT to investigate.

Haim shot to fame in the 80s -- when he co-starred in a number of films, including "The Lost Boys," with Corey Feldman.

Story developing...

Do not know who this is.

 

[Gibsons]

Sad, but not that big of a surprise.

 

[Genx87]

This guy was a walking example of what can happen to child stars.

 

[syrillus]

Guess he won't be cameo'ing in the next Lost Boys film.

Lost Boys? The second of the "Two Corey's?"

Damn... I thought this was a joke.

Mid 30's guy is now sad here.

huh?

Even after the picture, I do not know who that is. I watched mostly Star Trek TNG back in the late 80s/early90s :\D:

 

[Lamont Burns]

I had the 2 Coreys mixed up.

Wrong Corey died!

 

[rasczak]

too bad. lost boys was classic.

 

[shiner]

I thought he was already dead.

So if it wasn't him which one of the "child actors" from the 80's died outside a nightclub of an overdose several years ago?

River Phoenix is probably who you're thinking about.

After seeing an episode or two of that reality show about "the two Coreys," the OD (unfortunately) isn't at all surprising.

Yep...that's the one.

Damn .... sorry to hear the news. So sad to see these child stars falling apart and dying at such a young age.

So, how is Gary Coleman still alive ??

 

[Pliablemoose]

Haim also reportedly was in and out of rehab 15 times

Thats one fucked up person... 15 times????

Dont worry im sure the other Corey isnt far behind. He is just as messed up.

 

[shortylickens]

Sad, but not unexpected. Also, I predicted the other Corey to die first.

 

[DougK62]

One of his lesser-known films was "Dream Machine" - I loved it as a kid. He got to rip around town in a sweet Porsche the whole movie.

 

[Felisity]

Not surprised. Still makes me sad tho. What a waste.

The show he and Feldman did together was sorta funny, in a sad way.

The Two Coreys. You could absolutely tell that Haim had all sorts of problems.

Unfortunate that he died before getting clean...this was a train in the wrecking for a while.
