I hate the Creepy Kid trope too much to be able to tell when it is being overused.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Kids are some scary fucks, though.
Add power or knowledge to their coveted youth, and they're everyone's nightmare.
I love creepy kids. Cuz they're creepy. I'm gonna see Dark Water because I love creepy kids. And Jennifer Connelly. And suffering.
What about Greta Garbo in Camille? That's one gorjuss consumptive.
If you want a REALLY creepy kid, try watching the original Bad Seed.
Fulminating TB is well known to bring a mighty dumptruck of beauty to the doorstep.

Now I feel better about my HS insisting I had TB.
How could I have forgotten Garbo? Of course, I haven't actually seen Camille, I just remember that bit from Annie...

Creepy kids was overdone back in Star Trek. Ever since then, it's just been a repeat of the same old.
Yeah, I thought TB was one of those diseases that's supposed to make you look good.
