Corey Haim Found Dead
Actor Corey Haim died this morning of an apparent overdose -- possibly accidental -- according to LAPD. He was 38.
Police tell us they were called to St. Joseph's hospital in Burbank, CA shortly before 4AM PT to investigate.
Haim shot to fame in the 80s -- when he co-starred in a number of films, including "The Lost Boys," with Corey Feldman.

That's a shame. I seem to recall he's been treading a pretty difficult path for these past several years. I hope he's found peace.

Sad but not a suprise. I always have to take a step back when they list the cause of death as "accidental" overdose, so I'm guessing the only thing that doesn't actually make this a suicide is the absence of a note? Clearly the man's been killing himself for years. The only thing of his i think I ever saw was "Lost Boys", hopefully the Academy will remember to put his picture in their tribute to the dead next year.

I am not sure why Hollywood puts so much emphasis on accidental versus intentional. Whether it was by accident or on purpose, a person should be smart enough to be able to control themselves and not mix a boatload of drugs together, or consume so much, or whatever….the point is, quit taking so many drugs! /unsure.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wacko:' />

At this point in my life, narcotics are long gone from my repertoire, but when I was indulging in them, I knew what to stay away from and I survived. When the parties I was attending went from smoking pot and snorting coke, to smoking crack and snorting heroin, I stopped partying. Clearly the time had come to move away from that scene and unfortunately I lost a few friends who couldn't pull themselves out in time….and let me tell you death can be the better alternative to what some of these people turn in to; zombified, grotesque caricatures of themselves. These people that just leap blindly into that sort of behavior may NOT realize it but they DO have a death wish.

He was not found dead. He was alive when paramedics were summoned. He died in the Hospital. Small point.
I remember him most in "Silver Bullet". Still one of my most favorites. I own that one as well as "Lost Boys". Fun movies.

Very sad. Silver Bullet and Lost Boys, I'll watch when ever I see it on.
Lucas, he was wonderful and a great movie.

After looking at his resumè…I think I've seen "Silver Bullet" (I know I read the book, Stephen King if I'm not mistaken) and know that I've seen "Lost Boys", the rest of his stuff….doesn't ring any bells. Few are the child actors/actresses who survive the type casting. I think most of these kids have a skewed idea of how the world really works when they get swept up in the Hollywood system. When it spits them back out again, unless they have real talent/ability they're completely lost and confused. I think it's the immaturity of the kid they really are and they just don't possess the tools to handle the change. It's unfortunate and I think Hollywood has a responsibility to these kids. There should be a college fund or something set up for these kids so that they can at least get an education to help them transition into the world of the average citizen. Possibly some therapy as well?

I think you're right Monk, sadly so many of them end up "lost boys"
Very few Ron Howards make it through child acting.

I heard last night that initial results on his autopsy was that it was a pulmonary issue…details still sketchy

Authorities: No illegal drugs found in Haim case
March 12, 2010, 2:18 PM EST
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Authorities said Friday they had recovered four prescription drug bottles bearing the name of actor Corey Haim but found nothing illegal while investigating his death.
Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter declined to identify the drugs. Haim was battling flulike symptoms in the days before he died.
Winter said an autopsy was done Thursday, but his office was awaiting the results of toxicology tests that could take two months before determining a cause of death.
Haim died Wednesday at age 38 after collapsing at his mother's apartment. The actor battled drug addiction for years.
He earned fame for roles in the 1980s films "Lucas" and "The Lost Boys," He recently completed several film projects.
"Access Hollywood" reported on its Web site that Judy Haim had been told by the coroner's office that her son had an enlarged heart and his lungs were filled with water.
Winter confirmed his office had called Judy Haim, but he declined to say what they discussed.

sadly legal drugs are just as deadly as illegal ones.
i have a feeling this will end up being similar to the Brittany Murphy cause of death.
