Episode 15 - Home Alone
Two violent criminals invade a house in which an 8-year-old child has been abandoned while his family goes on vacation to Paris. The 1990 classic film, "Home Alone," shows us that child endangerment is more fun than a barrel of monkeys.
Macaulay Culkin plays Kevin McCallister, a psychopathic sadist whose hobbies include severely burning people, inflicting massive head trauma, and puncturing his victims' flesh with sharp objects. While Kevin's actions may have technically been justified by self-defense, this kid will surely grow up to be a prolific serial killer.
Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern play Harry and Marv, two blundering criminals whose ambitions quickly escalate from theft to home invasion after getting scammed by a kindergartener. Spoiler alert: The hilarious conclusion to this family film is Harry attempting to bite off Kevin's fingers one-by-one right before having his head bashed in by a shovel.
Merry Christmas, Everyone!
