Catherine O'Hara Recreates Home Alone Moment In Viral TikTok

The clip, which at time of writing had over 450,000 likes, shows side-by-side videos of O'Hara back in 1992 when she filmed the Home Alone sequel, and 20 years later. The way the actress perfectly copies every expression and movement in the short clip is true magic. She even faints at the end — again! And, O'Hara's scream of "Kevin!" will delight anyone who knows this movie inside and out.

The silver lining to this clip going viral is that, as USA Today notes, more people are discovering the star's work in the film, who may not have seen it before. We're talking about the audience that only knows the deadpan actress from Schitt's Creek. Fans old and new are taking to Twitter to express their delight over the video. "Totally sleighed it," one commented, along with a Santa emoji. "Love that a new generation is discovering this comic legend," another tweeted. So, if you haven't seen O'Hara in Home Alone, what are you waiting for?
