It is a sign of a sick, jaded mind, but the first thought to my head was "One down, one to go."

Sick.

RIP.

Loved Lost Boys. I think I still have the Soundtrack somewhere.

Damn, that sucks man. Definitely reminds me of my childhood. License to drive and Lost Boys are the two i remember most.

It's so sad, they had him and his dad on Howard Stern not too long ago (unplanned, dad just showed up when Corey was on) and they had some major issues. His father and mother managed him as a child and they were both taking a percentage as if they were both separate agents. Money is the root of all evil.

He died of a drug OD and his mom was there when he went. Strange. Was he doing drugs with his mom?

Yeah, for anyone from my generation, he was know for a few of the biggest movies in the late 80's.

I remember watching Lost Boys over and over when I was 10 or so.

I watched some of that reality show The Two Corey's a couple years back and you could almost see it coming, though.

Not shocking but still crazy.

His own words: "a chronic relapser for the rest of my life." Well I guess he spoke the truth.

Have you ever seen these movies:

Silver Bullet
The Lost Boys
License to Drive
Watchers
Dream a Little Dream


Pretty much all he's know for. That, and a lot of partying he never escaped.

No to all. Can't recall even having heard of any of those titles.

I do now recall having heard his name a couple of times on "Robot Chicken", but they are always referencing actors I've never heard of, lol.

What were you doing during the 80's? :smoker: j/k j/k

Silver Bullet (written by Stephen King) was a pretty decent movie - Gary Busey's character was hilarious. Lost Boys was good then but probably a little corny if you watched it today. Kiefer Sutherland was one of the big name actor's from that movie. Heather Graham was in License to Drive, her and the Ferrrari is all I remember about that one. I forgot about Lucas, it also had Charlie Sheen, Winona Ryder, and Jeremy Piven cast.

"Turtle, look. When my son was born, my greatest fear was having this conversation. I know that i would give him anything he wanted because he was my son. And i couldn't say no, which sucks because it wouldn't help him and he'd just end up on the street doing heroine with the two Cory's because I was to much of a pussy to teach him a lesson. I won't make that mistake with you." -- Ari Gold.

"Heaslip said this was evidence that Haim's death was not caused by a drug overdose"

It's the damn vampires, has to be! Someone put a stake in him before he comes back!

Lost Boys was on non-stop all weekend long.

I heard on the radio that his family was seeking donations to pay to fly the body back to Toronto for burial. I know if I had money to donate it'd be a difficult decision between helping those that can't help themselves and flying this spoiled kids body back
