Home Alone

In this Wisconsin home-alone scenario, there isn't a happy ending because the dumb parents go to jail.

There are some features that look as if the last 32 years have been put on pause.

If you were asked to go to great lengths to keep yourself, your loved ones, and your home as safe as possible, would you? Because without a doubt I would.

You may have seen it pointed out that Kevin McCallister's parents in the movie Home Alone (set here in Illinois) would have been looking at serious trouble for leaving an 8 year old to knock around that fabulous house all by himself.

As someone old enough to remember seeing the movie Home Alone in the theater, I recall as we exited the theater overhearing a woman say to her husband "If you and I did something like that, and left a kid behind at home, we'd be going to jail!"

Nearly 30 years after its initial release, Home Alone remains one of the most beloved films of all time.

If you're an Illinois homeowner, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if you told me that you immediately thought "So does every ****ing person who owns a house in this state!"

These films have made movie theaters merry and bright.

The comedy arrives on Disney+ this November.

Get ready for ‘Home Sweet Home Alone.’
