Tagline: “A family comedy without the family."
Reasons they need to see it: Though this film’s plot could never occur in this day and age (it barely passed in the '90s, and it was a free-for-all back then), it’s a fun and original movie that — if for no other reason than the fact that it's iconic — needs to be seen by every kid. It's kind of a good movie to teach kids what not to do if they ever feel like they’re in any type of danger, which may not be the best selling point, but hey, it’s a classic.
What to look out for: The wet bandits are super creepy and talk briefly about biting off each one of Kevin’s fingers one by one. Also Kevin is basically a murderer without the actual murder (you know it's true), so there may be a lot to talk through once the credits roll.
