The McCallister Family is Back on the Big Screen with ‘Home Alone 25th Anniversary’ in Select Cinemas This November
Fathom Events and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment Present
The Return of This Family Classic on November 8 and 11
DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–To mark the anniversary of one of the best live-action comedies of all
time, Fathom Events and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment present Home
Alone 25th Anniversary, coming to select cinemas for
two dates on Sunday, November 8 and Wednesday, November 11. What better
way to get into the holiday spirit than by enjoying this Christmas
comedy blockbuster with the whole family on its original home of the big
screen. In addition to the full-length feature, the event will also
include a special introduction that will be exclusive to cinema
audiences.
Tickets for Home Alone 25th Anniversary can be purchased
online by visiting www.FathomEvents.com
or at participating theater box offices. Fans throughout the U.S. will
be able to enjoy the event in more than 600 movie theaters through
Fathom’s Digital
Broadcast Network. For a complete list of theater locations visit

Featuring a superstar cast led by Macaulay Culkin in the role that made
him an international household name, relive every pratfall and prank
with Catherine O’Hara, John Heard, John Candy, Joe Pesci and Daniel
Stern. The franchise, that spawned four sequels and three video games,
begins as eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (Culkin) has become the man
of the house, overnight! Accidentally left behind when his family rushes
off on a Christmas vacation, Kevin gets busy decorating the house for
the holidays. But he’s not decking the halls with tinsel and holly. Two
bumbling burglars are trying to break in, and Kevin’s rigging a
bewildering battery of booby traps to welcome them!
“Long-time fans and first-time viewers of ‘Home Alone’ will laugh
together at their local cinema this November,” said Fathom Events CEO
John Rubey. “We’re proud to be partnering with Twentieth Century Fox
Home Entertainment to give audiences this unique opportunity to
re-experience a classic as it was meant to be seen.”
The Home Alone: Anniversary Collection will be available
in-stores everywhere October 6. The collection features all five HOME
ALONE films on DVD along with a beautiful 4K restoration on Blu-ray™
and Digital HD™ of the first film along with HOME ALONE 2: LOST IN
NEW YORK on Blu-ray™ and Digital HD™. HOME ALONE 3, HOME
ALONE 4: TAKING BACK THE HOUSE and HOME ALONE 5: THE HOLIDAY HEIST
