[adrotate banner=”1″]Merry Christmas, you filthy animals! Asylum is back to take that literally, by giving us what we’ve all be craving – a Home Alone ripoff that features talking dogs! Bone Alone looks so much like Home Alone from the trailer, that this will be a Christmas classic for years to come, even featuring completely unrelated terrible sequels made decades later.
Bone Alone follows a similar plot to Home Alone: Bone the dog is a bad doggie and is forbidden from going to grandma’s house for food, so he’s left home alone. Where a bunch of thieves break in, and Bone must defend his house with all his doggie powers. Which involves lots of traps that Bone is somehow able to put together despite having no opposable thumbs. Also he talks, and there are other talking dogs, so Bone isn’t really alone. Why Bone doesn’t just yell at the burglars is a mystery. Kevin Sorbo shows up with a “dog catcher” uniform on, and is exploded. Now we know why Bone was left alone — he’s the Unabomber!
Perhaps this will spawn an entire genre of dog-themed mockbusters of popular films. A Jurassic Bark that doesn’t make you cry, anyone? Bone Matrix? Commandog? I demand all these films be made. By Christmas!
Also I lied, Bone Alone IS a porn film, but it’s a different Bone Alone!
If its got a dog on a skateboard in it, it must be good!
Dogs on a skateboard are the new two thumbs up!
In the United States and some other areas the film is titled “Alone for Christmas”. It’s a lighthearted confection, a slapstick kids family comedy and definitely a change from the usual films I direct. Hope folks (and especially kids) decide to just have fun with it. 🙂 JJL P.S.> There are a tonne of movie references (besides the obvious) in the movie, though… be curious to see how many folks get them. Enjoy! 😉
The film looks like a great kids film, but I admit I am disappointed I won’t be able to see the title “Bone Alone” on the movie store shelves in the USA…
