Actor Corey Haim, who rose to fame in the 1980’s with a string of hit movies including ‘The Lost Boys,” has passed away at the age of 38.
The actor died of an apparent drug overdose after being rushed to a Los Angeles hospital early this morning, according to the Associated Press.
According to reports, Haim’s mother was with him when he passed away.
Haim starred in a number of high-profile movies of the 80s, including “Dream a Little Dream” and “License to Drive.” The actor struggled with addictions over the course of his life, many of which were documented in a reality series, “The Two Coreys,” which Haim co-starred with fellow actor Corey Feldman.
This is a shame… RIP.
Loved The Lost Boys, a classic, and License to Drive.
No mention of Watchers… a movie I loved as a kid but cannot find anywhere anymore.
What a damned shame!
Whatever it was that he was looking for, I hope he knew how much joy he brought to people with “The Lost Boys”.
It breaks my heart that his mother had to watch her son die.
RIP, finally, Corey.
How sad…
Drug abuse takes another one too soon.
