Macauley Culkin’s dad was allegedly a bigger villain than Henry Evans. Yes, the making of The Good Son was complicated. But let’s talk about the actual 1993 thriller that wanted us to hate the little kid from Home Alone. Back then, audiences lined up to see a different side of their beloved “Kevin!” Critics weren’t kind and audiences weren’t too crazy about it either. But now, nearly 30 years later, were our expectations simply higher than the cliff Henry’s mom hangs out on? Could The Good Son – with its dead-baby subplot and its dead-mom intro – ever have made us happy? And did Elijah Wood miss his calling as an action hero? The Old Roommates dust off “Mr. Highway” and give this kiddie thriller a re-watch. Listen to this.
