Where Are They Now? 'Home Alone' Edition

It was possibly the most iconic Christmas movies of our time.

Home Alone gave us all the fantasy of being left alone at home. Did no one else daydream about what they would do? How they would stop the robbers should it come to that? It was definitely something we all contemplated.

But what happened to the cast? It's been over 25 years since the movie was first released and we're curious to see if these people still look like we remember them!

So here we go.

1. Catherine O'Hara as Kate McCallister

Catherine O'Hara might be the largest actor to come out of the film franchise. The Canadian actress went on to star in a slew of Hollywood hits after this movie, as well as TV shows. She currently stars opposite Eugene Levy in the comedy show "Schitt's Creek."

2. Daniel Stern as Marv the Burglar

Daniel Stern was not only the voice of the narrator on "The Wonder Years", but he also reprised his role as Marv in "Home Alone 2: Lost In New York." Stern also voiced animated characters, such as Dilbert on the short-lived show 'Dilbert'.

3. Joe Pesci as Harry the Burglar

Joe Pesci already had an Oscar when he took the role in Home Alone. His roles in 'Goodfellas' and 'Raging Bull' pretty much solidified his status as ultimate gangster villain. After 'Home Alone', Pesci went on to star in 'My Cousin Vinny' and the Lethal Weapon series.

4. John Heard as Peter McCallister

John Heard unfortunately got into some legal troubles after 'Home Alone.' He was arrested twice in the 90s, once for thrid-degree assault against his ex-girlfriend, and then again for trespassing at her home. He has still worked steadly in Hollywood, finding recurring roles on 'CSI: Miami', 'Prison Break', and 'The Sopranos.' He was also in 'Sharknado.'

5. Devin Ratray as Buzz McCallister

Devin Ratray reprised his role in 'Home Alone 2', and ended up having a part in 'Dennis The Menace.' He has picked up small acting roles on 'Law & Order', 'Supernatural', and 'The Good Wife'. Ratray did a documentary in 2007 called "Courting Condi", in which he traveled the country to try and court Condoleezza Rice.

6. Kieran Culkin as Fuller McCallister

Obviously, this was the Culkin you were all wondering about…KIDDING! Kieran Culkin is really Macaulay's brother. You'll probably remember Fuller McCallister as the bed-wetter. Since this movie, Kieran has gone on to star in movies like 'Father Of The Bride' and 'She's All That.' Recently, the younger Culkin was in 'Scott Pilgrim vs The World' and the FX show, 'Fargo.'

7. Hillary Wolf as Megan McCallister

After her lead role in 'Big Girls Don't Cry…They Get Even", Hillary Wolf decided to pursue her passion for judo. She competed in the 1996 and 2000 at the summer Olympics and currently works as a judo sensai at her brother's studio. Wolf is a double black belt.

8. Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister

Culkin had a rather illustrious acting career for a short while after 'Home Alone.' His movies like 'My Girl', 'Richie Rich', and 'The Pagemaster' have solidified his status as ultimate child star. He was married (and divorced) all while he was still a teenager, and even dated Mila Kunis from 2002-2011 (WEIRD, RIGHT!?) Culkin currently is focusing on his art career, having an exhibit of his artwork in NYC, as well as performing with a band named Pizza Underground. He splits his time between Paris and New York.

The True Story Behind "The Sound of Music" Is Even Better Than Whiskers On Kittens

When Julie Andrews brought the sound of music down from the mountains and into our hearts, she brought with it a love for the real-life von Trapp family, who the story was based on. The movie follows the autobiography of the real Maria von Trapp, who was a nun that became a part of an Austrian family before the Nazi occupation in World War II. The film accurately portrays a lot about their lives and demeanor, but in Maria's published memoirs (that the film was based on) it is easy to see how much becomes simple Hollywood figment. Here are

10 Foods From Our Childhood We're Surprised Haven't Been Banned By Now

We didn't necessarily have any of this "all natural organic free range sung to sleep by angels" food that people eat now. We ate what was given to us and didn't worry about the consequences. That being said, there were some pretty questionable foods from back then that are still eaten today, and we're not quite sure why.

1994 Best Buy Flyer Reminds Us Of Simple, Yet Terrifying Times

Before the internet was super available, we had flyers (or paper inserts). We waited for that blessed Sunday paper when we could see all the upcoming deals. And when it was Christmas time? Look out. Those bad boys were getting cut out and glued to another sheet of paper, then promptly mailed off to Santa. Even though it doesn't seem like that long ago, the technology in 1994 was...less than ideal. What we thought was groundbreaking now seems like the stone age. This paper insert from Best Buy is no different. It's from the week of October 23, 1994,
