    This is terrible. The poor guy tried so much to get his life around, but always fell off the wagon no matter how hard he tried. Truly a sad story. May he rest in peace.

    Lost Boys is my all time favorite film so it's really sad to this.

    So many child/teen actors don't make the bill later in life...It's really unfortunate to see how many of them sink into depression, drugs etc. Jonathan Brandis and River Pheonix spring to mind, although they died much younger.

    RIP Corey Haim

    River Phoenix was one person who could've had a phenomenal career had he just kept off the drugs.

    I watched Stand By Me for the first time a few months ago and it made me quite sad to see the outcome of his charecter in the film was very similar to what happened in real life.

    Yeah, I agree. Stand By Me is one of my most favorite movies of all time.

    (...of all time.)

    I am seriously saddened by this
    He was such a gentle and kind soul that wanted to turn his life around
    The Lost Boys has to be on of my favorite movies ever. I loved the Two Coreys(The guys and the TV show).
    May he rest in peace. :(

    Much like Luke said, how many famous people revert back to drugs/depression? That lifestyle can be fatal as seen from time and time again.


    Also check out this picture Apathy( GBC, FM) posted of Lindsay Lohan. Sad to see.

    I fear Lindsay is well on her way to being the next Corey Haim/Heath Ledger. She just is letting her life slip away.
