Christmas is the time of year meant to be enjoyed with family and loved ones. So what happens when your parents accidentally forget to bring you with them on the family vacation to Europe? You turn your home into a fortress as impenetrable as Fort Knox to fight off neighborhood burglars — that's what! And if you're wondering where to watch Home Alone movies, the classic comedy remains a holiday staple in 2025.

Macaulay Culkin, Home Alone

20th Century Fox

After being left home alone as the family jets off for Christmas in France, eight-year-old Kevin McAllister (Macaulay Culkin) enjoys hing the house to himself until two burglars (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) set their sights on the property for their next robbery. Kevin pulls out all the stops in protecting his home from the Wet Bandits, and the creative booby traps entertain with slapstick humor that stands the test of time.

And while there are technically six movies in the franchise, we all know the first two Culkin classics — Home Alone (1990) and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992) — are the only ones anybody really cares about. But don't worry, we'll tell you where to watch them all, including the later entries like Home Alone 3, Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House, Home Alone: The Holiday Heist, and the Disney+ Original Home Sweet Home Alone.

In recent news, Culkin recently shared a sequel idea with the world on his 2025 tour, "A Nostalgic Night with Macaulay Culkin", marking 35 years since the original film. "I'm either a widower or a divorcee. I'm raising a kid and all that stuff. I'm working really hard and I'm not really paying enough attention and the kid is kind of getting miffed at me and then I get locked out. [Kevin's son] won't let me in… and he's the one setting traps for me." In this pitch, Kevin essentially replaces the burglars. "The house is some sort of metaphor for our relationship," Culkin explained, and his character has to "'get let back into [his] son's heart' kind of deal. That's the closest elevator pitch that I he. I'm not completely allergic to it — the right thing."

Home Alone was nominated for multiple awards, including a Golden Globe for Best Picture – Musical or Comedy, and it turned Culkin into the biggest child star of his era. It also became the second-highest-grossing film of 1990 behind Ghost. More than three decades later, the movie's legacy is so strongly tied to the holiday season that it naturally resurfaces every year — people revisit it during their holiday movie marathons, slot it onto lists of the best Christmas movies, and hunt down Home Alone streaming options as part of their annual traditions. It's become such a ritual that guides on where to watch Home Alone movies practically write themselves each December.

Now, here's where to get watching. Note: Hulu is only hosting all six Home Alone films for the holiday season. If you want 'em all year long, you'll he to subscribe to Disney+ or the Disney Bundle.

Home Alone 3 (1997)

Prime Video

It's not that it went downhill from here, it's just that the franchise began going down a different hill entirely. Home Alone 3 stars a new kid, Alex Pruitt (Alex D. Linz), in a different house where he's once again left home alone for the holidays — only this time, he's dealing with a case of chicken pox. This time around, he takes on four burglars. And, something we almost completely forgot about? Scarlett Johansson has a very minor role in this one as Alex's sister Molly. Everyone's gotta get their start somewhere!

Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House (2002)

Prime Video

Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House is where things start to get a little awkward, because Kevin isn't really Kevin anymore. This made-for-TV entry swaps in an entirely new cast, with Mike Weinberg stepping into the Kevin role and French Stewart playing a reimagined Marv, now paired with a wife rather than Harry. The shift, along with the much smaller production budget, gives the movie a very different feel from the classics.

Home Alone: The Holiday Heist arrived about a decade later as the fifth installment, and we finally ditched the whole "new Kevin" storyline. Instead, we meet Finn Baxter (Christian Martyn), an eight-year-old convinced his new house is haunted. Didn't we all think that as kids? His paranoia ends up working in his for, though, when a group of thieves targets the home and Finn has to channel his inner Kevin to defend it.

Home Sweet Home Alone (2021)

Disney+

Lastly, we've got the baby of the group, the most recent installment, Home Sweet Home Alone from 2021, which was created specifically for Disney+. This one introduces yet another brand-new family and a new kid, Max Mercer (Archie Yates), who ends up defending his home when a desperate couple mistakes him for hing something valuable. It leans more into modern tech and Disney-style humor, giving it a very different vibe from the classics. While it didn't exactly win everyone over, it keeps the franchise alive for a new generation of holiday viewers.
