Hard to watch this film again. Shame.


It kinda breaks my heart to watch this film these days. Knowing that Corey Haim was being molested at that time (and on) its a bit disturbing and very sad, it truly puts me off. And it's gutting because I am big fan since The Lost Boys came out in VHS. Haim was always cool to watch in any of his 80s flicks. Poor him, so soul breaking what happened. He always seemed to me as a quite genuine and sweet guy.

I thought his abuse first happened while he was filming 'Lucas'? I don't think anything happened on the set of Lost Boys.
I used to watch the 2 Corey's reality show and Corey H said Lost Boys was his favourite of all the movies he made, I don't think he held it as a bad experience or regretted making the movie.

I've been listening Lost Boys soundtrack lately and watching some C Haim videos online and its so unsettling just to think how awful experiences he went trough.

I will have to watch this film soon. There is a Lost Boys TV Show coming up soon, he would have been very annoyed to know that none of the originals would be there x)

Poor lad. Hope, wherever he is now, he is having a ball.

Me? I always tell the truth, even when I lie.
