Growing up in the '80s, it seemed like the two Coreys were everywhere. If a movie didn't have one, it could easily have the other, and some had both. Oddly, if I had had to guess which one was the most vulnerable to bad behavior or the least able to control his impulses, it would have been Feldman. That show "The Two Coreys" on A&E showed me just how wrong I was -- quite the opposite.
It's pretty sad, but by the end of the second season of that show I was almost half expecting him not to survive for five more years. He seemed to be in one big ongoing relapse.

Someone needs to combine all of these. I'm not really surprised... it seemed kind of obvious he was heading towards this based on what was seen of him recently.

I used to hang out in a bar in Atlanta that had 80's trivia every Sunday. One of the categories was called Corey and Corey. The host would name 4 80's movies, and you had to say for each whether it had Corey Haim, Corey Feldman, both or neither. That was a hard damn category
I loved Lost Boys, in a way it's a shame that part of that film died. Well at least we still got Keither Sutherland!
Wow looking at that brief biograpthy, he really got screwed over! Goes to show, just because you were in showbiz doesn't mean your made for life, it appears he died poorer and more alone then your average working class citizen. At least he had the memories.

I believe he screwed himself. He had a lot of directors willing to hire him, but he has admitted himself that he was unable to perform effectively due to his addictions. After a while, he earned a reputation...

Yes you are right but when I say 'got screwed over' I mean that as in he got screwed over by the drugs.
tragically true. even sadder is the fact that i never did hear/read of a reconciliation between the two Coreys so he died without making peace with his friend. i just hope he finds the peace in death he never found in life
