I don't know if this photo has found its way on the web already but it's the first I've seen of it and it's too funny to not share. It's Corey Haim's "big comeback" in a scene from CRANK HIGH VOLTAGE!


Click to enlarge!

He makes a cameo appearance in HIGH VOLTAGE (and no I didn't forget the colon, Lionsgate told me that's how it's supposed to be) as, well, I have no idea but it looks like he could very well be playing himself. (IMDB actually lists him as playing "Randy.") With the above pic, you can also Haim get his ass tossed out a window by Statham in the red band trailer. Today's your day to shine Haim.

Met Haim last year, he's very cool
I spoke to Haim about his role in this film and I told him I was looking forward to it, and he said it was an awesome and gruesomely funny small part.



He didn't expect it to be sort of a "comeback role" he just was happy to be working again on something cool because he likes Statham. They met and got along- and bang he's in the movie with the blessings of Statham (who I hear is...

Despite all the past bad press, lemme tell you, Haim is a very cool, not very tall, humble guy when we spoke over a cigarette break from autograph signings outside the main building. I smoked 1 he smoked 2.



He def seems like he has his shit together. He seemed very "there" very excited just happy to be signing autographs and yukking it up about the good ol'days with people.



He also signed a picture of my friend's newborn baby boy, (she and her husband could not be there because of said baby) and thought it was the most flattering thing in the world and actually said: "best autograph of the night!", after he signed it, he gave the picture of the baby a kiss, and asked what the name was. I said "Connor" and Haim said "Named after John Connor in The Terminator flicks?" and I said: "No they went with Connor Macleod from "Highlander movies" and Haim was like: "At least they didn't name the kid The Kurgan, he'd have a hard time making pals."



Very charismatic, very charming. But he smokes like 3 packs a day. Crazy.



He was very thin, we're the exact same height, and I have at least 20 pounds on him but I have a stocky running-back type work-out body structure. He's like fragile, and waif looking. And I remember when he was like 40lbs over weight. He's come along way.



He looked good and did not charge me for the pics or autographs and told me "to give the money to the mom and dad of Connor"



My father was with me, and he was skeptic to meet him, but when we left, my pops was like: "Haim is a class act compared to some of these other celebs we chatted with today and he was my second fave to meet and talk to, the first being William Forsythe." (who's always cool)



IE: Lou Ferrigno is a complete and total classless asshole. Worst whiny bitch of the convention, he actually turned down signing a like 10-11 year old child's personal picture because it had him posed next to Schwarzenegger. "He was like I only sign pics of just Me."



Ferigno was macking all the playmates that were there to sign and they were like: "Eww, get this freak away from me."



Ferrigno spent half the time at the playboy playmate table desperately trying to have something in common. The girls just were nice to him, but clearly wanted him to go away as the line for his autograph grew longer and longer, he didn't care and was just all about that playmate pussy. People, especially with kids who wanted to introduce their children to the original Incredible Hulk were not happy AT ALL watching him just stand over by the playmates like he was something special wasting time.
