Corey Haim's 5 Most Memorable Roles

BuzzSugar — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 12:34:05 -0800

Corey Haim tragically passed away today at the age of 38, but I can always go back to my childhood memories of him on the screen. Once a huge teen star, Haim made several movies that are seared into my brain, and like the actor, won't soon be forgotten.

RIP: Corey Haim Found Dead at 38

Molly — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 07:38:22 -0800

Corey Haim passed away this morning in a Southern California apartment, the cause of death being an apparent overdose. At one time perhaps the biggest heartthrob in the world, Haim struggled with addiction for many years. His mother was with him when he died, and he had been sick the past few days. Known for his work in movies like The Lost Boys, he most recently starred in a short-lived reality TV show with Corey Feldman, The Two Coreys. Our thoughts are with Corey Haim's friends and family.

Straight-to-DVD Preview: The Lost Boys Sequel

Once upon a time, the sensational teen duo known as "the Cories" were hot young Hollywood talents. Over the years, though, neither of them have had much of a career, whatever celebrity sparkle they once possessed dulled by both obscurity and stints on reality television.

Given this, you can kind of see why both Corey Feldman and Corey Haim would feel compelled to reprise their roles in the quintessential cult vampire flick of the '80s The Lost Boys in the straight-to-DVD sequel, Lost Boys 2: The Tribe. I just wish they'd directed this need to become relevant again into something else.

In an interview with MTV News, Corey Feldman describes this next installment as the first film "on steroids," by which he means there is "more gore, there's more nudity, which there definitely wasn't in the first film." Ugh. As a fan of the original, I don't understand why the Cories feel the need to ruin my memories with this ridiculousness. To check out the trailer for the DVD, read more.

Buzz In: Which Former Teen Idols Would You Put on VH1?

It's a weird world where Scott Baio can become a programming tycoon, but I guess that's what two successful "celebreality" shows can do these days. Following the success of Scott Baio is 45 . . . And Single and Scott Baio is 46 . . . And Pregnant, Baio is launching a reality show that aims to do for others what VH1 did for him.

Here's the idea: Eight teen idols from the '80s and '90s, all guys, will live in a house together and reflect on the best and worst parts of their short-lived fame. With help from life coaches and experts in the entertainment industry, they'll come to a decision by the end of the show: either pursue fame again, or promise to stay far away from Hollywood for good.

So now, here's the key question: Which eight male former heartthrobs would you want to see in the house? Frankly, after The Two Coreys, I would veto both Haim and Feldman. But an appearance by Kirk Cameron could be great, if only because I'd love to see what he's saying these days. Fred Savage might be doing too well to qualify, but what about Corin "Corky" Nemec of Parker Lewis Can't Lose?

OK, your turn! Which teen idols would you put in that house?
