Year: 1990
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 for 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, 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).
