6. Home Alone

Home-Alone-home-alone-31423371-1876-1027

Nothing says Christmas like a small child dishing out violence to two grown men, as they try to rob his house, so if love stories, iron-clad super heroics, twitchy detectives and felt based fables don’t do anything for you, relax with this live action cartoon as Kevin McCallister defends his home any way he can.

Kids will cheer for Kevin, accidentally left behind by his parents at Xmas while parents will fret over considering how they would feel if they left a child behind. Some of you will even feel for the “Wet Bandits” gang of Joe Pescii and Daniel Stern as every single one of their schemes to burgle Kevin’s house is thwarted by the plucky Macaulay Culkin (before he got annoying in sequels and other unnecessary films that tried to cash in on his sudden fame).

I'm watchin' you, kid!
