After discussion, we came to conclusion that this movie was a PG as it refers to mild use of weapons and violence when the gun is being used to shoot down football figures and also on the movie when the man was shot, this was followed on by a reaction shot showing the shock on the child's face, ensuring that the children watching realise this is bad.
At the beginning of the clip, slight tension was built as the fireplace in the basement turned on by itself, the child then continued to reassure himself this was his imagination and as he ran away it turned back off again.
Shortly after, the audience are reassured that being home alone actually wasn't that bad and they then got to laugh at the child taking full advantage of this. This follows the regulations as violence was reassured and also the slight horror and tense.
Actual Classification:
After researching the film the actual classification was PG, suggesting that the mild sexual references, violence and possible scary themes were reviewed and the criteria from which the BBFC work were applied correctly. This is what we suspected and the research shows our assumptions were correct.
