The Lost Boys Star Brooke McCarter Dies at 52

Dec 22, 2015

Brooke McCarter, who played Paul in the 1987 vampire movie The Lost Boys, died Tuesday after a long illness, TMZ reports. He was 52.

McCarter suffered from a genetic liver condition, according to TMZ.

McCarter, who began his career as a model, continued acting sporadically after The Lost Boys, but never achieved the level of fame of his co-stars, including Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman and Corey Haim.

He also made regular appearances at horror fan conventions, appeared in the 2010 cult horror film Uh-Oh Show, and guest-starred on "The Twilight Zone".

McCarter's family shared news of his passing on his official Facebook page.

Such a tragedy. I didn't know him but it says on Wiki that he scored the film Fast Getaway so it seems he was multitalented. http://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainme...cid=spartanntp
