comment
Gnome Alone is a 2018 CG animated film by Cinesite that centers around a centuries-old war between Gnomes, who protect the earth and "Troggs" whom would consume everything they can.When high school student Chloe discovers that her new home’s garden gnomes are sentient and their mission, she must decide between the pursuit of a desired high school life or taking up the fight against the Troggs.This film has nothing to do with Home Alone.

Not-So-Harmless Villain: While they are portrayed as chaotic and destructive, the Troggs don't look at first like a lethal threat, as they content themselves with causing mayhem inside the house. However, if left unchecked, they can fuse into a Mega-Trogg that will consume everything.

But she’s optimistic, holds a good job, and works hard to make a nice home and life for the two of them.

Cyberbullying: While trying to get back a MacGuffin necklace from Brittany at the school dance, our heroine Chloe has to make the choice between her Nerd friend Liam and Brittany's approval. When Liam tries to storm off, one of Brittany's groupies trips him with her foot and causes him to Face Plant onto the floor. For further humiliation, she snaps a picture and posts it online with her phone so they can all laugh about it over and over again.
