Corey Feldman Remembers Corey Haim: ‘This Is A Tragic Loss’

Corey Feldman and Corey Haim were paired so often on screen together that they eventually earned a reality show entitled “The Two Coreys” – and on Wednesday, hours after the news of Haim’s death, Feldman remembered his late friend and co-star.

“I was awakened at 8:30 this morning by my brother and sister knocking on my bedroom door,” Feldman said in a statement to Access Hollywood. “They informed me of the loss of my brother Corey Haim. My eyes weren’t even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face.

“I am so sorry for Corey, his mother Judy, his family, my family, all of our fans, and of course my son who I will have to find a way to explain this to when he gets home from school,” he continued. “This is a tragic loss of a wonderful, beautiful, tormented soul, who will always be my brother, family, and best friend. We must all take this as a lesson in how we treat the people we share this world with while they are still here to make a difference. Please respect our families as we struggle and grieve through this difficult time. I hope the art Corey has left behind will be remembered as the passion of that for which he truly lived.”

Haim and Feldman starred in a number of movies together after inaugurating their on-screen partnership in 1987’s “The Lost Boys.” They also co-starred in “License To Drive” (1988), “Dream A Little Dream” (1989), “Blown Away” (1992), “National Lampoon’s Last Resort” (1994), “Dream a Little Dream 2” (1995), “Busted” (1996), “Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star” (2003) and “Lost Boys: The Tribe” (2008). Both also appeared in an episode of the animated “Robot Chicken” and each made separate appearances on the TV series “Big Wolf On Campus.”

Audiences saw the real-life side of their relationship in A&E reality show “The Two Coreys,” which aired for one season from 2007-2008.
