As a gamer who grew up in the ’90s, I can vividly remember the thrill of watching Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister outwit those hapless burglars in Home Alone. Now, knowing that behind the scenes, Joe Pesci was trying to scare the bejesus out of young Macaulay, biting him accidentally and leaving a lasting mark, adds an extra layer of excitement to the film’s legacy.
As the holiday season draws near, a time typically spent with loved ones and Kevin McCallister (character from Home Alone), Macaulay Culkin is traversing the country for “A Nostalgic Evening With Macaulay Culkin.” This unique event combines screenings of Home Alone along with interactive Q&A sessions with the actor. Throughout these events, he shares behind-the-scenes stories from the set and his personal life, referring to Home Alone as his most successful project. One fascinating tidbit he’s mentioned is his possible purchase of the iconic house in Winnetka, where the McCallister family resided in the film.
During his stay in Rosemont, Illinois, Macaulay Culkin shared a story about an incident on the set involving Joe Pesci (as reported by The New York Times). Pesci, portraying burglar Harry, attempted to frighten Culkin for the cameras, aiming to enhance their adversarial relationship. They portrayed adversaries who engaged in conflicts within the McCallister’s spacious residence.
He was trying to scare me. He was like, I want to be menacing to this kid.
During the rehearsal of a scene where Harry menaces Kevin by pretending to bite his fingers, an unintended mishap occurred, resulting in him genuinely biting Macaulay Culkin’s finger, leaving him with a scar.
I bear a mark on me. Upon witnessing his expression, it was the first time I’ve ever seen Joe Pesci appear truly frightened. Given his character, it seemed out of place for him to exclaim something like, “I just scared a child!
Back then, the circumstances might have scared them both, however, nowadays, Macaulay Culkin laughingly retells that incident from the set of “Home Alone” as a funny tale.
