Fun fact

He and Corey Feldman appeared together in seven films spanning 1987 to 2008, enough that fans just started calling them 'The Two Coreys' before anyone made it official.

The verdict

Born in Toronto and raised between Laval, Quebec and Willowdale, Ontario, a teen heartthrob by fifteen and one half of 'The Two Coreys' by seventeen. The Lost Boys made him a household name across the border while he was still a Canadian kid on a work permit. Born, raised, five points.
