The Hollywood blockbuster ‘Home Alone’ was released around 26 years ago and it went so popular among the viewers, making it the highest-grossing live action comedy film. But do you know how one its central characters – Macaulay Culkin – looks like after two and a half decade now?

Macaulay Culkin played a genius little boy in the flick was mistakenly left alone when his family heads to Paris for their Christmas vacation.

Named in the movie ‘Kevin’, he initially relishes being home alone, but soon has to confront with two would-be burglars played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern.

And the drama begins from that point on.

The movie had also its sequels but what the benchmark set by its prequel was matchless.

But Culkin faced drastic issues with his health as started taking drugs following bust-up with girl friend Mila Kunis, who is also a Hollywood actress.

His aides say he’s worlds away from the character of Kevin McCallister, the joyful young boy in the flick who charmed millions of movie-goers.

Today, skinny to the point of skeletal, Culkin looks far older than his 31 years.

His alabaster skin appears papery and his green eyes framed with blonde lashes add to the air of vulnerability which clings to him.

A website reported that neighbour at a book shop near his home said that Culkin now looks so bad she could easily confuse him with a tramp.
