I too have a lot of home movies and it really cluttered the MOVIES section on the AppleTV. I remember trying a lot of different settings, but never getting it to really work under the MOVIES section.
The simplest way is to import your home movie into the MOVIES section and then open the GET INFO tab, then VIDEO tab and change the setting to TV SHOW. In the Show Description section type in Home Movies and in the season number put in the year -- or modify depending on how you want to organize your home movies.
As I said, I tried changing a lot of the info using the MOVIE section and it never showed up right on the APPLE TV. Putting the home movie in the TV SHOWS sections gives you a lot of easy "foldering" options.
