Corey Feldman claims he was molested by his late best friend and confidante Corey Haim, in a new Apple TV documentary about his life.

In Corey Feldman vs. The World, the 54-year-old actor alleges Haim, who died aged 38, in 2010, sexually propositioned him while they filmed the 1987 vampire thriller The Lost Boys.

The Los Angeles native said he was 16 when he appeared opposite Haim, also then 16, in the film, which was one of their multiple cinema collaborations at the time. 

Feldman said: 'When we did Lost Boys, Corey said to me "Hey man, let's mess around." And I said, "What do you mean?"'  

Feldman said in the documentary that Haim told him, 'This is what, you know, what guys in the business do, right? You know, you s*** each other's d****, or you f*** around - you do this stuff. And I said, "What are you talking about?"'

The Daily Mail has reached out to reps for Feldman for further comment on the story.

Corey Feldman, 54, makes the shock allegation that he was molested by his late best friend and confidante Corey Haim, in a new Apple TV documentary about his life 

In the documentary from director Marcie Hume, Feldman said Haim had then initiated sexual activity while they were making The Lost Boys, in which they played the respective roles of Edgar Frog and Sam. 

Feldman made a reference to actor Charlie Sheen - who has past denied accusations that Feldman made, claiming Haim said Sheen sexualy assaulted him when he was 13 on the set of the 1985 movie Lucas.

A rep for Sheen told Variety of the alleged Haim claims: 'These sick, twisted and outlandish allegations never occurred. Period.'

Daily Mail has reached out to reps for Sheen for further comment on the story. 

Feldman said that he was fully understanding of what Haim was looking for from him, and decided to oblige him in an effort to make the behavior stop.

'I called [Haim] and said, "Come over,"' Feldman said. 'But you know, when you have got somebody that's trying to come onto you sexually, and you don't want that, and you are a kid, and you are scared, you do whatever you can to stop it from happening.

'And that's what was happening. I was being molested by Corey Haim. Truth be told.'

As well as The Lost Boys Feldman and Haim headlined films such as 1988's License to Drive and 1989's Dream a Little Dream. 

Hume said the interview with Feldman took place in late 2017, amid multiple accusations against powerful figures at the height of the #MeToo movement, marking an 'incredibly emotional moment.'

The director said that Feldman 'was almost reliving what that was like to live in this hypersexualized environment as child actors in Hollywood.' 

The Lost Boys was directed by Joel Schumacher and also starred Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, Kiefer Sutherland, Dianne Wiest and Alex Winter. The film arrived in theaters in July of 1987.

Feldman in 1986 appeared in the late Rob Reiner's Stand by Me, playing the role of troubled preteen Teddy Duchamp.

An iMDb synopsis for the new doc reads 'Corey Feldman embarks on a surreal rock tour with lingerie-clad angels, facing disastrous events that compel him to confront Hollywood abuse allegations and personal secrets.'

Hume took to Instagram earlier this month to promote the project and let her followers know the amount of work that went into making it.

'It’s been the longest, hardest road on a film that kept going places I never expected,' the director said. 

She added. 'After filming on buses and in hotel rooms and flying all over the country with my Canon 5D, endless edits and screenings with @adamscottfranklin and @starlenbr, and @jimmycthatsme’s fierce belief in seeing this through, today the COREY FELDMAN VS. THE WORLD trailer and pre-order link are available.'
