News Flash: Corey Haim Dead at 38

Although I can't say that I'm very shocked, I'm still very sad to report that actor Corey Haim has died at the age of 38. Haim was found in Burbank, and it is now assumed that his death was caused by an accidental drug overdose.

Haim was famous for a number of movies he filmed in the 80s, "The Lost Boys" being one of his biggest films.  Although he was famous for his film work, he was equally famous for being one half of "The Coreys," the other half being his best friend, actor Corey Feldman. 

Apparently, Haim was trying to make an acting comeback and was involved in at least NINE seperate projects that are currently still in production.

I don't always report on celebrity deaths on my site, but at one time Corey Haim WAS pop culture, and that's what this site is about.  This is how pop culture works; things become popular, and then they fade away.  But if this site existed in the 80s, Corey Haim would have been featured on it, without a doubt.

RIP Corey Haim.
