Corey Haim
After a meteoric rise to the top after only a few film and television roles, actor Corey Haim found himself one of many child stars to struggle with the legacy of his work and his changing career. Though he had his start on Canadian television, Haim made his breakthrough with an award-worthy performance as the bespectacled, bug-collecting kid in the refreshing teen comedy, "Lucas" (1986). The next year, Haim reached the height of his career with a starring role in the Gen-X hit "The Lost Boys" (1987), immediately joining Corey Feldman - later dubbed "The Coreys" - as one of the most popular teen stars of his time. He and Feldman also had further success with the teen comedies "License to Drive" (1988) and "Dream a Little Dream (1989). Haim would later struggle with addiction. Feldman remained a strong source of support for him during this time, and the two appeared together as adults in the reality show "The Two Coreys" (A&E, 2007-08). Haim achieved sobriety and began to regain a foothold in Hollywood by landing roles in bigger budget films like "Crank: High Voltage" (2009) with Jason Statham and in indies like "American Sunset" (2010) and "Shark City" (2009). Fans and fellow actors were shocked and saddened at Haim's untimely end on March 10, 2010, just as it appeared the actor was making his long wished for comeback.
