Canadian born actor Corey Haim, 38, who's starred in dozens of film and TV movies, has lost his battle with drugs.


Best known for his feature role in the Joel Schumacher 1987 vampire film, The Lost Boys, he starred alongside other names of his generation, Jason Patric and Kiefer Sutherland.

Haim began acting lessons as a child after by his mother enrolled in classes trying to help him overcome shyness.

Haim first broke into mainstream acting playing the role of Larry in the Canadian family oriented comedy television series, The Edison Twins, which ran from 1982 through until 1986.

Despite a constant flow of work, his battle with shyness and anxiety only grew and in 2000 he confessed to taking around 85 Valium a day to calm his nerves.

By 2004, Haim appeared to have finally overcome his drug habit, saying: "'I'm clean, sober, humble and happy."

But today, KABC-TV in Los Angeles reported Haim was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital in Burbank but was pronounced dead at 3:30 a.m. (PST).



He will be remembered for the dozens of films and TV movies he appeared in from The Edison Twins in 1982 right through to The Girl and The Pick Up this year.
