990: Garfield's Horror Heater
Garfield's Horror Heater |
Made by: Grant Fikes |
Explanation[edit | edit source]
This strip tweaks the premise of the "Garfield's Horror Theater" strip into featuring a horror heater. The middle panel is made a depiction of the heater in the McCallister home in the film Home Alone, followed by a depiction of the character Kevin McCallister (played by Macaulay Culkin as stated in the transcript) screaming; Kevin screamed a few times during the film, one of which was in an encounter with the family heater. The author's notes imply the film's been so well-seen that it is likely to have been seen by anyone who sees this strip.
