Feldman worked with Spielberg on his early movies (The Goonies, Gremlins), but he has only said nice things about him in interviews. So very likely not Sir Steven.
The answer will probably be like the identity of “Deep Throat”. Who’s Mark Felt?
It’s very likely some producer or mogul type who is only a household name to people in the industry.
How about the openly gay Joel Schumacher, director of The Lost Boys? (Both Corey Haim and Corey Feldman were in that film.)
Edited to add this quote from The Hollywood Reporter, “Haim was just 11 when, Feldman says, a man raped him on a movie set.” According to IMDB, Haim was born in 1971, but his first credit is in 1984.
Reading more of that interview, Feldman says that it wasn’t Schumacher.
I guessing it’s a Scientologist who wears a rug.
If we’re gonna lob guesses in the direction of father-son acting duos who were prominent in the 80s, how about the Sutherlands? Not saying it’s either of them, but as long as we’re speculating around people who worked with Haim and also trying to tick off all the items on the list.
Aaah, a “Family” man…
And Keifer was in ‘Stand By Me’ with Feldman…
Keifer was in The Lost Boys with both of them.
Man, if it is Donald Sutherland, I want to know.
Where did the idea that it was father/ son come from?
Same place every speculation in the thread did. Pulled out of someone’s fundament.
Leave the kid. Grab his cannoli. Or was it the other way around?
Most pedophiles also aren’t gay, at least, not openly. It seems to be a third axis of arousal/fetish/orientation, and mostly nominal heterosexuals.
I’m not saying it was a father/son that did it in-tandem, but people were speculating on Sheen and then Sheen. I just went another direction with the speculation.
One thing I could never stomach about living in Hollywood…all the damn pedophiles…
Obligatory link (safe for work besides mild cussing)
Stop with those negative waves!!!
Honestly, would anyone ever describe either Donald or Keifer as “powerful” in Hollywood?
I don’t think they fit.
If you’re trying to build suspense and attract clicks, sure. It’s not like these criteria have to pass quantitative standards.
Plllleeeeeeease don’t be Donald Sutherland!
