By FITSNews || Child star Corey Haim – who became a household name in the 1980s for his portrayal of the Lucas, the quintessential undersized, geeky high-school student – was found dead in his Oakwood, California apartment early Wednesday morning.
He was 38 years old.
In addition to his title role in Lucas, Haim also starred in the 1987 cult classic The Lost Boys. He is known for being cast alongside another 1980′s child star, Corey Feldman. The two starred in the late 1980′s hits License to Drive and Dream A Little Dream.
Police originally said that Haim’s death was an accidental overdose, but are now awaiting the results of an autopsy.
The actor’s mother was in the apartment when he died.

What about Blown Away with Nicole Eggert (Baywatch)?

Is this supposed to mean anything to me?
If I don’t express sympathy, will people claim I do not have a heart?
Not to sound really freaked out and paranoid but this is just a way to make some posters appear to be cold-hearted b—–ds, isn’t it?
Well, sir, I AM NO JAKE KNOTTZI!

I do find this sad. I have been a Corey Haim fan for 20 years, and I do think this has hurt my heart. Poor guy, hopefully now he’s in peace. I love you Corey <3
