About this listen

"Corey Feldman vs. The World" is the best documentary I've ever seen. It's a candid glimpse into how fame corrupts, twists, and damages one's perception of reality.

Corey Feldman (born in 1971) is an American actor and "musician" who was once uber-famous. He rose to fame as one of the most prominent child stars of the '80s, forming the iconic duo "The Two Coreys" with Corey Haim. His blockbuster coming-of-age and adventure films include Gremlins (1984), The Goonies (1985), Stand by Me (1986), The Lost Boys (1987), License to Drive (1988), and Dream a Little Dream (1989).

Documentary filmmaker Marcie Hume follows Corey and his "angels" on his musical tour, living on the tour bus and capturing every moment. It is a descent into… I don't even know what… a controlling, sex- and drug-fueled cult that gets darker and more fucked-up with each tour stop.
