Getty Images Corey Haim, the star of 80s vampire film "The Lost Boys," was a forgotten man at the 83rd annual Academy Awards.

The actor was notably left out of the Oscar's tribute to film notables who passed away over the last year, reports Access Hollywood.

Among those recognized by the Academy were Dennis Hopper, Leslie Nielsen, Tony Curtis, and Leana Horne.

Haim, who also starred in "Lucas" and "License to Drive," died on March 11, 2010. He was 38.

After Haim was overlooked at the Screen Actors Guild Awards "In Memoriam" tribute in January, his friend and former co-star Corey Feldman, felt compelled to speak out.

"We have become used to not being honored by our peers in the industry," he told The Hollywood Reporter. "I have faith that the Academy will make a wiser choice."

    Thank you for your post. I loved Corey Haim!
    He was in one of my favorite movies of all time "The Lost Boys". Such a shame they forgot him.

    Yea the excuse I keep hearing is he simply was forgotten.. that's bullshit. They looked down on the guy because he had problems and couldn't act nearly as well after the drug induced stroke he had. He was still a tremendous child actor with a lot of great roles and deserved that small amount of recognition. They did it to Farrah Fawcet as well.
