Call me a Scrooge all you want, because it's not going to change my mind that "Home Alone" is and has always been terrible and annoying.

One of the great Christmas movies. It's the movie that made Macaulay Culkin a star. A wonderful about a boy who gets left "home alone" during Christmas and must deal with home invaders. The last great John Hughes film.

Forget the main film, well do not forget it but you probably know all about it. Has kid fend off against thieves. Its okay I suppose for its audience but forget that I want to focus on the pure stroke of brilliance inside this film and that is the Angels with filthy souls movie. NOT how it is used but the short clip itself. It just is genius with the incredibly sinister Johnny letting Snake know who's boss. The scene is brilliant and the performance by whoever plays Johnny is tremendous. I would have put Home Alone on my villains list, but I didn't because everyone probably who think that I am taking about Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern, and not Johnny who is so evil he just never stops shooting and Laughing even after his victim is long dead.
