Don Coscarelli outdoes the humor of John Hughes in what feels like a more honest version of the gleeful sadism in Home Alone.

It's all fairly absurd, but Coscarelli retains his enthusiasm and imagination with a healthy sense of ridiculousness.

The first film is like an actual nightmare, whereas the sequels feel more like someone's garish descriptions of a nightmare.
