Original Movie: Home Alone
![[Watch Party] RoV Pro League 2024 Winter | ( Bacon Time Vs PSG )](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/zM25REvnJW4/mqdefault.jpg)
The movie explains the family trip to Paris. Kate mentions it to Harry when he's dressed as a cop. Peter's brother Rob moved to Paris, but his kids still live in the U.S. to finish school. He misses his family, so he's giving the entire family a trip to Paris. After many viewings, I've worked out that Heather, the oldest, and the boy who was in Buzz's room are probably Uncle Rob's kids. Heather tells Harry that her parents live in Paris, and Buzz asks the other guy about French beaches. Also I figure the two of them are old enough to live alone in the U.S. while their parents live elsewhere. I think Frank has four kids: the two girls who say their parents are home but don't live there, plus Fuller and the youngest girl.
I fell asleep halfway thru that explanation
Sucks for Peter's brother. He's in another country across the Atlantic Ocean and he pays for his kids and extended family to fly over to him only for them to turn right back around to be back in the U.S. on Christmas. He took a hit to his heart and his wallet during this misadventure.
@@jessecortez9449and he gets ZERO screen time.
Well thought out and very complete.
@@jessecortez9449 Right?
Kevin: Can’t pack a suitcase 🧳
Also Kevin: Expert death trap engineer
Kids logic: Packing Suitcase... Boring.. Setting up traps.. FUN :D
I also learned recently that John Candy was not paid any deserving amount for this role. He just did it out of the goodness of his own heart as a Christmas gift to the world. It’s because it started out as a cameo bit/ part that wasn’t supposed to go as far as it did, but this is what happened. He worked so well, they just kept filming him
Also they didn't think they could get John Williams to score the movie. Williams liked the idea of the movie so much that he scored it for a very low payment.
Edit: Looked it up. They weren't sure they could get Williams. They got him a rough cut of the movie and he loved it so much he agreed to score it. There was no mention of the fee.
The kid that played the pizza delivery guy got paid more than John Candy
John Candy was paid actors scale. They filmed his scenes in a single day.
Wasn't the entire funeral parlor story off the cuff? Candy's delivery of "came around and started talking again" kind makes it feel that way.
He only said 7 words. How much did we expect him to get paid?
"Are you trying to stop them or kill them?"
"Killing them will stop them."
I had the same thought😂
Macaulay Culkin still refers to Catherine O'Hara as "Mom." She was present to honor him for his star on the Walk of Fame recently and it was the sweetest thing I've ever seen.
Hate to burst your bubble but anything like that in front of a camera is scripted af.
@apple54345 no its not karen. How many people take their coworkers to their walk of fame? Everybody don't do that so sorry to bust your bubble.
The cast returned for Home Alone 2. For the third one, they went with a different family/cast, and the story was somewhat different. That one had a young Scarlet Johansson. The fourth movie was a made for TV sequel with a different cast playing the characters from the first two films. The fifth and sixth movies were stand-alone movies with no connection to any others in the franchise.
Regarding the danger of Kevin's Traps: There are a series of videos on TH-cam called Home Alone with Blood. They're edited clips from the movie, attempting to show the realistic outcome of some of Kevin's traps.
Home alone 6 does have a connection to the two first movies, since an adult Buzz is in it. He even mentions what happened to Kevin in the first two movies.
“Are you trying to stop them or kill them?” I have seen doctors and surgeons react to this movie and every one of them has said that if Harry and Marv had really been subjected to what Kevin put them through, their chances of living through it would have been pretty close to nil.
Even just the hot doorknob or the blowtorch to the head is a trip to the burn unit and AGES of painful recovery.
And these traps have absolutely nothing on Home Alone 2. Every trap in that movie would have been fatal.
Screen Junkies did a video years ago in which they had ER doctors give their diagnosis of every injury that Marv and Harry suffered,and tallied how many times they would've died.
It’s a comedy. A very good one.
I mean, it's a live action cartoon where Kevin is afraid of a talking furnace. It was never meant to be true to life.
@@natecloe8535 home alone 3 even worse though. Baby's day out, they'd die right away. Home alone 4...pathetic.
I love that John Candy and Macaulay were reunited in this after Uncle Buck. Even though they weren't in a scene together, close enough. Also the funeral scene by Candy was completely improvised, which makes it even more hilarious. And Marv's spider death scream is legit. He had arachnophobia. The greatest crime in this certainly...is that Kevin didn't even get to eat his Macaroni and Cheese.
My best advice to you is to stop at 2. It's the end of series for me. The rest is whatever.
He didn't ate it probably because it caught feathers.
Im 27....and I watch this movie with my family literally every christmas....I am STILL upset over the fact that he didnt get to eat that mac n cheese.
The story I heard about the tarantula was Daniel Stern agreed to have the actual tarantula crawl across his face, he mimed the scream for safety sake and they added it in post. But I think that really is his scream.
@@marcpower4167what I wanna know is what happened to the tarantula, after it jumps off of Harry’s chest when Marv hits him, we never see the tarantula again
Polish network television plays this movie (dubbed, of course) on loop on Christmas Day every year. When the network tried removing it in 2010, the backlash caused them to play it again.
The reason when Kevin calls the police he sends them to the Murphys is because he thinks the police are after him for stealing the toothbrush and for his family's disappearance.
I don't blame him for celebrating his family "disappearing", they were all the worst.
To be fair, he was acting like a little turd at the beginning of the movie.
@@CaseytifyWell, we don't blame Kevin.
@@Caseytify How
@@Caseytifyhe was a jerk because people treated him like shit
@@MUGTOWN4LIFE Les incompetent. Awful French both times, but yours would mean casually competent.
Fun trivia from Home Alone:
- Fuller (the little kid who has a reputation for wetting the bed) was played by Macaulay Culkin's real-life brother, Kieran Culkin.
- Catherine O'Hara, who played the mom, still sends Macaulay a Christmas card every year, signed "Mom"!
- The cast and crew for the movie had a very wholesome relationship with many of the people who lived in the neighborhood where the movie was being filmed. The owners of the house across the street from the one that served as the McCallister house in the film let the cast and crew rest in their basement while they were off duty. They were invited to the 90th birthday of another neighbor lady and Macaulay sang "Happy Birthday" to her.
- The movie Kevin is initially scared by and later uses to trick the pizza guy and the burglars, "Angels with Filthy Souls", was created and filmed specifically for "Home Alone" rather than actually being an old gangster movie.
- John Candy ad-libbed most of his lines, including the story of leaving a child in a funeral home.
- The flooded basement scene was actually filmed in the swimming pool of a school located near the "Home Alone House".
- Macaulay still has a scar on one of his fingers because Joe Pesci got a bit too carried away during one take of the "finger biting" scene and accidentally bit his finger a little too hard!
Plus, the girl doing the counting actually counted herself twice, as the 3rd & 11th kid.
First, let me say Home Alone 2 NEEDS to happen, V. The amount of cool, fun cameos in that one alone make it worth it. And there's one that stands out from all the rest. You'll know it when you see it!
Secondly, the old man is my favorite character too. He's clearly alone in life, no mention of his wife who is probably passed away. His son seems to be the only child he ever had. But his sadness never became bitterness, it only ever made him long for what he had left. The parting shot of him walking into his place with his son, who is now married and with their little girl, is so immensely satisfying.
And the fact you can't see any of their faces actually makes it better. Their story could apply to any of us around this time of year. We should all strive to reconcile and come together for the holidays. Cause the world's just too full of lonely people waiting for the other person to make the first move.
With that said, I want to offer my heartfelt greetings to you. Merry Christmas!
FUN FACT: Daniel Stern's scream when reacting to the tarantula on his face was completely authentic.
what I heard is that he made the gestures and later recorded the scream, he is arachnophobic and screaming like that to a tarantula could very dangerous
@@joseanl Correct. Stern only agreed to do the take with the spider on his face one time only and in order to avoid scaring the spider from his scream, he mimed it and his scream was edited in later.
spreading false "facts" over here.
As others pointed out, the scream was dubbed in after the fact. Hardly an "authentic" reaction.
My reply post was deleted because I included a link, but Daniel Stern himself said the scream was real and that he could scream like that because tarantulas don't have ears.
John Candy's character name in Spaceballs was named Barf. I was laughing through that part especially when you guessed Vomit.
"...shoes inside the bed, under the covers!"
Well, now we know the ingredients to the most effective horror movie for VKunia! 😆
Home Alone is one of the funniest classic Christmas movies that always cracked me up as a kid.
FUN FACT: Watching Home Alone at christmas is a tradition in Poland and as a Polish guy I'm happy to see your reaction to this movie :D
Home Alone and 2 were such a fundamental part of my childhood. They take me back to when Christmas was magical.
Home Alone 1 & 2 are both timeless classics for Christmas holidays. You'll never gets tired watching it everytime.
Fun Fact: Macaulay Culkin got this role because the director liked Culkin’s work in the movie Uncle Buck. In that movie, Culkin played the nephew. Uncle Buck was played by John Candy, the chubby good guy who let the mother ride with them in the back of the truck in Home Alone.
If a director likes you, he calls you back again and again, even for small parts. Look at the old couple who gives the mom their ticket. It’s the same old guy who sat on the other side of Steve Martin on the plane in Planes Trains and Automobiles (with Candy in it of course).
The director had no hand in casting Culkin, John Hughes who was the writer and director of Uncle Buck wrote the script of this with Culkin in mind… John Hughes is the writer and producer of Home Alone… Chris Columbus may be the director but it is still Hughes film
It absolutely slays me at the end. Even as a kid it was laugh out loud funny. Because of the way that his mom spent the WHOLE MOVIE jumping through hoops to get home. And beat the rest of the family home by all of 10 minutes. 😂
If you could, please watch Home Alone 2 as well. It's just as good and funny as this movie
its betterrrrrr
THERE'S A HOME ALONE 2?!!!?!!!?!!?!??!!!!!!???????!!!!?!!?!?
Home Alone 2 is more believable
@@molotovdudeI can't tell if you are trolling or are you serious
@@Nightwolf_500 serious
The tarantula scene with Daniel Stern was done in complete silence, even though Stern is horribly arachnophobic, in order to not scare the tarantula and having it bite him. True professional actor.
23:01 that makes sense.
Well they dubbed it with the best comedy scream ever...
@@Tigermania Which was also really his.
I'd rather die than have a tarantula within 5 miles of me 😖
Although I hear they don't have ears...
A couple years ago, my family and I were celebrating at a Christmas party. Prior to the party, my older sister and her kids stopped by our parents house to grab some stuff for the party. About 15 minutes after my sister arrived at the party, she realized that she left her 7 year old son at our parents. Fortunately, our parents house wasn't too far and her son came to the party fine. Our mother joked how similar the situation was to the film "Home Alone". My sister was not amused.
I especially liked the side story with the old man and his son. It worked well with the central story and added greatly to Kevin's character.
Home Alone 1 & 2, both favorites from my childhood. Looked forward to this reaction.
I had mixed feelings about 3, it was nice having a completely different story and new characters but the fact that the villains were these high tech terrorists, that was kind of far fetched
This is one of my favorite Christmas movies ever! It's so good! The second one is just as fun, but you shouldn't watch the rest. Funny bit about Marv's scream with the tarantula, he could not actually scream on the take because they didn't want to scare the spider. He had to mime the scream and then later recorded a scream that they added in post. Also, Chris Columbus directed this movie and worked with John Williams on the score. They would later work together again on the first two Harry Potter films.
You got to love Buzz. We all had a Buzz in our lives, whether he was a classmate, friend, or relative.
And there are Home Alone sequels, but Kevin is only in the first two. The third on have a different cast of characters.
You need to react to Home Alone 2. The traps are even more brutal lol
And the "creepy" old person is even sweeter.
The downright sadistic nature of those traps is easily the best part of the sequel, alongside Tim Curry obviously
@@christianwise637yeah... HA2 is straight up lethal
@@popularopinion1To me, nothing says Christmas like a psychopathic child repeatedly destroying two burglars cursed with immortality.
The traps of Home Alone 1 will maybe kill; most certainly maim the Wet Bandits. The traps in Home Alone 2 would definitely kill them.
Fun fact the picture of Buzz’s girlfriend was actually a boy in a wig and makeup disguising him, because they didn’t want to make fun of an actual girl when Kevin says “woof”.
Perhaps my favorite Christmas movie ever. I've watched this well over a dozen times and it never gets old. What a classic! The sequel is such a gem as well.
2:03 Let me point out a few details about this particular point in the film. We have _four_ adults and more than a dozen _kids._ They're all due to get on a plane to another country _early, tomorrow morning._ A little later, they send Kevin to sleep in a part of the house almost no one _ever_ has occasion to go under _normal_ circumstances, let alone during a rush.
But there's a fact _I_ didn't pick up on until embarrassingly recently. When they bed down for the night, _every_ single member of the household has their bags packed, except _Kevin._ Kevin does not have a specially designated place, by the front door, for his bags to sit until it's time to leave.
Thus, when morning comes and there's a rush, no one comes across any of Kevin's luggage, and accordingly, no one remembers to check the third _floor._
The luggage. That's the key. What's special about Kevin that he's the only member of this household whose _bags_ are not packed?
Also, his ticket got milk spilled on and upon the clean up got tossed in the trash. So when they were handing out the tickets to the kids, they didn't see Kevin's. Out of sight, out of mind.
The writer did a pretty good job of closing up all the obvious plot holes. They anticipated the "Wait a minute, how did they not..." reactions.
14:52 you're right. Someone actually did the math and the inflation was massive, something like 200% or more. Also didn't take into account the shrinkage either (pack of bagels back then you got 6, now its 4 in a pack) so maybe 200% inflation, and for less items too.
It still gets me that things like "king sized" candy bars are just what regular size was when I was a kid. But they kept making the regular standard size smaller and smaller. And I remember that hungry man frozen dinners were extra large, and now the size is what a regular tv dinner was when I was a kid. While the regular sized ones are just a snack, and the other types of 'extra large' ones are what was just standard. Sorry for the old guy rant.
Peter’s brother paid for the trip to France for everyone. The brother got a nice promotion and relocated to France for his job.
Uncle Rob also seems to live right outside the Eiffel Tower. That area of Paris is extremely expensive. And that's not even counting that he owns a brownstone in New York City. Peter and Rob between them definitely have a comfortable amount of money to throw around, while Frank is the bum.
The house is pretty large, the trip to Paris is not the issue.
The house is in Winnetka, Illinois, one of the richest neighborhoods in the U.S. Whatever the McCallisters do, it's pretty lucrative.
@@micahbush5397 from what i learned peter's job is just listed as business man so that could mean lawyer or CEO or stock broker,
basically his job brought good money.
and it is from his side i believe cause in home alone 4 when they divorced it wasn't same actors but it was supposed to be the same characters,
the mom had the more normal house and the dad was super rich.
@@ChrissaTodd It's weird, though, because the mom's house in Home Alone 4 is supposed to be the family's house; Kevin's dad is living in the house of his socialite girlfriend.
Don’t feel bad about wondering what Kevin’s parents do for a living to have such a huge house…it’s actually one of the great “Home Alone” mysteries that everyone is curious about.
I love how everyone who watches this movie thinks the exact same thing too 😂😂😂 it’s hilarious because it’s so accurate!
The mom is a seamstress or clothing designer hence the mannequins Kevin uses.
@@michaeljames6817 Maybe, but not necessarily.
@@wfly81 There's also fabrics everywhere in the basement. She definitely is.
@@michaeljames6817 These are things my mother has always had and she’s not a seamstress. Not saying that you’re wrong, just that it’s not definite.
Home Alone is the greatest kid to adult troll movie of all time. Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction!
In a real-world scenario, Kevin should have alerted the police as soon as he overheard Harry informing Marv of their plan to return at 9 o’clock. This would have allowed the police to be ready and in position before 9, enabling them to capture the burglars before they could invade Kevin’s home.
"Why the hell you take your shoes off?!"
"Why the hell are you dressed like a chicken?"
Best line in the whole movie for me.
Home Alone is a Christmas classic. This movie never gets old. Love your reaction, V. Hope you react to Part 2!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Home Alone is no Christmas movie
@@jefferyoetter6884 Yeah it is.
This movie hits SO hard when you're like 7-10 years old, so I'm glad you enjoyed it as an adult despite not having that nostalgia! Going back and watching it as an adult, I definitely have all of the same questions and observations you had--particularly, "Holy crap this family is loaded."
People have different childhood trauma cartoons... Watership Down, Judge Doom, the pig scene in Spirited Away... The list goes on. The ones that traumatized me to my core (and still gives me the shivers) were all the punishments Marv's feet took. *shudder
Chris Columbus and Christmas movies man... this, the sequel, and the first two Harry Potters really get you into the holiday spirit with atmosphere alone.
He also co-produced Jingle All the Way so that's another one to add to the list.
And Gremlins :)
@@bryanb3352Bright light! Bright light!
Kevin grows up to be the Jigsaw killer from the Saw franchise. He kept improving his torture traps and made Buzz his first official victim (the first razor-wire victim). The pizza guy soon followed.
Stop that. Right now. 😑
16:18 That was John Candy because, in those days, any movie that had one person from the TV show "SCTV", had to have at least one more from that show. (The first in this movie being Catherine O'Hara.)
"I've had an argument with my son, and I told him I don't care to see him anymore."
"I've always been afraid of our basement."
"You just told the furnace to shut up." Got it, Old Man Marley should tell his son to shut up X3 Edit: 18:31 YEAH, EXACTLY XD
"You are something else Marv, you are the worst criminal I've ever heard of." . . . But you have heard of him . . . :3
Got to watch the Trilogy.
The first three was written and produced by John Hughes (The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Planes Trains and Autmobiles)
There’s absolutely NO way you haven’t seen this movie before lol.
Marv stepping on a nail brought back a memory. Once when I was young , the same thing happened to me. Trying to take a shortcut at my aunt's place, by going between a shed and a fence, I stepped on a board with a nail sticking out.
It’s a very well crafted film. Perfect cast, amazing score from Williams. The scenes pop from one story to another so well and finally bring everything together for the emotional ending. But the comedy, and Culkin’s performance is the star feature. 😊
John Hughes always had a talent for getting the right cast for his films
22:44 The reason why he didn't call the cops sooner is because he did not want them to come to his house and learn he is home alone, especially since he accidentally stole a toothbrush, he wanted them to catch the burglars at the other house across the road.
You’re correct VKunia! Catherine O’Hara was first best known and recognized from the movie Beetlejuice, then Home Alone and 2 Lost In New York, then Schitt’s Creek. This is definitely one of John Hughes’s best films ever produced and written even though Chris Colombus directed this 1990 Christmas classic. I also recommend such other Macaulay Culkin films such as Richie Rich, The Pagemaster, The Good Son, My Girl and Uncle Buck. Thirty three years later and this movie still holds up as a bona fide Christmas classic with one another decent movie and four crappy sequels. The true star of Home Alone is the soundtrack and idgaf who says or thinks otherwise. This was another gem that was composed and orchestrated by the legendary John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra who also scored tracks for the Indiana Jones franchise, Star Wars, E.T., Jaws, Schindler’s List, Jurassic Park, Fiddler On The Roof, Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, Superman, The Fablemans, Harry Potter, Far And Away, Hook, Saving Private Ryan, Memoirs Of A Geisha, Catch Me If You Can, The Terminal, and so much more.
Catherine O'Hara was there last week celebrating Macauly Culkin's Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame.

[6:27] _"i can't wait for the moment that she realizes she left her son"_ Please watch "Home Alone 2" after this one, this moment is freakn ICONIC there. it's my personal favorite out of the two (believe it or not) 💗😅😅
Tim Curry was a nice addition
I can't get over how cozy V's sweater looks 🥺🙉
19:11 WeH! I just got a Flashback to the Sega game back in the 90s 🤧🤯
The crowbar falling off the basement door onto Marvs head is one of the funniest bits to me 😂😂😂
23:00 fun fact, that scream from Marv wasn't acting, much like Vkunia the actor has a fear of spiders, and they didn't tell him they were going to use a live spider, they tricked him and said they were going to use a prop.
From what I saw in an interview with Stern, he said they intended to use a mechanical prop spider but it ended up looking too fake so they ended up having to use a real one instead.
@@DukeDarkshadow Well either way it scared the crap out of him, making the scene more genuine.
Home Alone and Terminator have few things in common. But the important one to note is, no matter what production companies say, each had only 2 movies, and they were all perfect. Everything else is just a money grab that's not worth watching.
@VKunia looks like some spammy spam going on here (unless you have an alternate channel with a bunch of unrelated content in a language I can't read).
Home Alone is one of the greatest holiday / Christmas movies ever made. It's also more proof that the 1990s is one of the greatest decades in film history.
I agree, however the 90s weren’t as good as the 80s… 80s movies were way better than the 90s movies.
Every year in the 80s there at least a couple of mega hit movies that are still classics today… it wasn’t really like that in the 90s

So glad you watched this movie! This is my favorite Christmas movie! I knew you would cry at the end when Marley reunited with his son. I appreciate that storyline so much more as an adult. Also that Polka guy is John Candy. He was one of the funniest and nicest actors. He and Catherine O’Hara are old friends and he improvised all of his lines
Home Alone is my favorite Christmas movie!
What’s amazing about Home Alone is it’s still a classic today ontop of being a huge hit when it first came out in 1990.
@@nsasupporter7557 ikr
@@spider-mantobeymaguirefanc9469 Christmas Story wasn’t a hit when it came out, believe it or not. It became popular later on

Home Alone is too good of a Christmas movie! Me and my family always watch it together every year in December and we still enjoy see it!
Yeah, I watched it religiously as a kid. I watched it at friends houses, my own house etc and it wasn’t even Christmas time lol
The van drivers picking up the statue at the beginning was hinting that they knocked it over when they pulled up, just like the pizza delivery driver.
Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern both really
make the movie funny and they both had me cracking up laughing this was
definitely a very funny movie thanks V.

I love that movie!
This is going to be great and 2 is fantastic!
When Kevin encounters Old Man Marley, back when he thinks he's the shovel slayer, the musical cue that plays is called the Dies Irae. It's been used in most movies as essentially the theme for death. But when Kevin talks to Old Man Marley in the church, as he realizes who he really is, the choir begins playing Carol of the Bells, which features the exact same notes as the Dies Irae, but in a different context. Because that's exactly what's happening in that scene.
Two minutes? This is the earliest I've ever been to one of your drops. Such a classic Christmas movie just like The Santa Clause. This is Culkin's best film series, I suggest the sequel as well. Daniel Stern and Joe Pesci are perfect burglars. Kieran Culkin aka Fuller is his little brother in real life. The mom is Catherine O' Hara, I know her from Beetlejuice. There are at least four films, but just the first two are the best. Nice reaction. Kevin!
Dude, Hell no!! The Santa Claus doesn’t hold a candle to Home Alone!
The Santa Claus is not a classic Christmas movie, what’s wrong with you
that was John Candy, who played Barfallonyou in Space Balls
Great movie, but I always preferred Home Alone 2! You should react to that movie as well!
If you think Kevin is murderous in this one wait until you see part 2. Kevin almost puts jigsaw to shame
19:53 Fun fact: Lots of people made the criticism "why do the McCallisters have a doggie door when they don't have a dog?" But Kevin's mom mentioned at the beginning that they DO have a dog when she was on the phone!
Where’s the dog though?
@@kendallbrown2904 My question exactly.
It's an easy to miss line, but his mom states they put the dog in a kennel while they were away.
There originally was going to be a post credits scene to the movie which would have been funny.
The post credit scene was gonna be with Harry and Marv in prison beaten and brusied, where they as well as many of the inmates were watching a movie... turns out to be... "Angels with Filthy Souls" they show the scene Marv listened to in an earlier scene.. the scene with "Snakes"
It ends with Harry and Marv giving each other a shocked reaction
Great Movie❤🎉
"Hes never going to make a wish like that again"
Till he got that sequel bag 😂
Your freak out about the cost $19.83 for the things he bought is spot on, because of biden they actually went back to this movie to compare them. It’s arond $ 60-70 now with biden inflation. We all want 1990 pricing back and biden out of the White House.
the damage these two suffer at the hands of kevin in home alone 2 is leaps and bounds ahead of this amazing movie lmao.
The snow shovel guy didn't live there he heard the commotion when he was taking care of the sidewalks. Love her sweater, it looks amazing and comfy. Hope everyone has an amazing day.
He's name in Friends is "mr. Heckles"
Edit: in Spaceballs he's name was Barfalamiu aka Barf
I recommend watching a video where medical professionals analyze the traps from Home Alone. It’s likely available on TH-cam. Essentially, they concluded that the characters wouldn’t have survived past the initial traps.
plot twist. Kevin grows up to be Jigsaw from the Saw franchise. the kid's a straight up psychopath
I used to relate so much to Kevin lol. Now am 35 and still watch this every xmas
Great reaction! Other John Candy movies you should check out are “Uncle Buck”, “Cool Runnings”, “Planes, Trains and Automobiles”
Fun Fact #1: When Harry almost hits Kevin with his fan and Kevin screams as it brakes, the footage of Kevin screaming is actually played backwards in which the van is in reverse.
Fun fact #2: Marv's actor didn't really scream when the tarantula was on his face. He only did a silent scream when they filmed that scene because he was worried his scream would scare the tarantula. So that added the real scream in later.
Fun fact #3: When Harry's actor bit into Macaulay Culkin's finger, he actually did it and it left a scar which was something he didn't mean to do.
Also, I laughed so hard at 23:25 the first time I saw this too just like you, VKunia.
"Shoes inside the bed? Under the covers?" I understand that on a spiritual level! LMAO!
You talking about murder attempts is amazing because Screen Junkies had a series where they were counting potential character deaths, and Harry and Marv should have died a total of 24 times over the two Home Alone movies they were in.
Shovel guy was out on the street and saw Kevin running from the bandits, so followed them in
It is a good movie I've watched since 2000 pretty much every December and I thought you have already watched it and just watching it to be on record on your channel, I was a little shook that this was your first time xD, Thank you for the reaction 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Fun fact this movie got a bunch of awards for its stunts mainly because the stuntmen were taking real falls and hits for some of the scenes most notably slipping on the cars and falling down stairs
The clothes iron and nail gags are just *chef’s kiss*
FUN FACT: John Candy (Barf from "Spaceballs") shot all of his scenes in a full 24 hours without any sleep, never complained and just about all of his dialogue with Catherine O'Hara were made up on the spot.
Old Man Marley does not live in the flooded house. He most likely saw Marv and Harry chase Kevin there and showed up to save him. The kid who was miscounted as Kevin lives in that house with his family.
My paternal grandmother took me to the movie theater to see this movie when I was a child.
That was my introduction to Home Alone.
A holiday classic. It made every kid wanna be like Kevin, battling burglars with improvised traps and pulling mischievous pranks. Even the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis games were fun.
Many people like Home Alone 2, but I'm not so hot on it. You really get the sense that they're aware of the implausibility of it happening a second time, and it starts getting especially cartoonish.
It’s very common (at least to me) that if you are carpooling to the airport, that you would all sleep over in the same house the night before to ensure you all get going at the same time, and not be late. Which is what makes the fact that they all slept in so funny.
"Are you trying to stop them or kill them?"
Debatable.
"Are you trying to stop them or kill them?!"
Yes.
Macaulay got his own star on the walk of fame just last week. Catherine O'Hara (the mom) made a nice little speech at the presentation. Worth looking up.
"Marv, you're the worst bandit I've ever heard of."
"But you have heard of me."
so to give a bit of backstory (without spoilers) Kevin McCallister comes from a VERY and fairly wealthy large family...he has his parents, two brothers, two two sisters. Then he has his aunt and uncle who also have 5 kids. He also has a second aunt and uncle (but they don;t appear in this film they live somewhere else) and his oldest cousin is their daughter. Part of the reason for what happens in this film is due to the chaos of having a large family.
so yeah in total there are 5 kids in the main family, 5 cousins on one side and another older cousin on the other side.
LOL next flight back...around christmas...good luck XD
only the first two Home Alone's have kevin.
One is a classic, probably the only Christmas movie I’ve never heard nor criticized or not liked before. Two doesn’t have quite the “magic” the first does but it’s stands on its own. 3 would have been fun if the originals had never come out but it’s a case of who cares and why? Worth a “stormy day on cable nothing else to do” watch. The rest are just different flavors of bad up to offensive.
