Even if youve only seen Home Alone once and that was many, many moons ago, the one lasting memory youll have is of Macaulay Culkins Kevin screaming and screaming and screaming. Literally, all that kid does for a certain portion of the movie is scream. Most of these screams all make sense in the context of the film, yet theres one that just stands out as stupid. Having bumped into Old Man Marley outside, young Kevin runs screaming back into his house. Thats all well and good, but then theres one moment where he randomly runs towards the camera and screams into it before running off into the sanctuary of one of the houses many bedrooms. Yes, this might be a little harsh on a fluffy Christmas movie, but it totally breaks the fourth wall, and unnecessarily so. What, was Kevin Deadpool before Deadpool was Deadpool (Marvels fourth-wall-breaking Merc with a Mouth wasnt created until 1991)?
