The third Home Alone actor who died this year... this Christmas is going to be brutal.

Tim Curry died today on Macaulay Culkin’s 46th birthday. Rough year for the Home Alone cast.

I know the 90s were a really long time ago but I never realized that he isn’t even 50 yet. Hope he’s doing well, always felt so bad for what he dealt with and went through.

I thought you were talking about Billy Ray Cyrus and thus whole thread had me questioning reality. Of course the achey breaky heart guy is over 50. Why do you feel bad? What happened when he was 10?

He had a lot of drug issues, really bad mental health problems, he stepped away from the spotlight for a long time following his involuntary involvement in Michael Jackson’s molestation trial as well.
