Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Killer Kids in the Movies - A Murderous Montage from NYMag's Vulture

With the release of Hanna, a new movie about a child assassin, NYMag's Vulture pop culture blog decided to take a look back at the bloody history of killer kids in the movies with a video montage. Warning: there's gore galore in this murderous retrospective, but it will definitely bring back memories for horror or action fans. It's got everyone from Kick-Ass's Hit Girl to Pet Sematery's Gage.

The scenes Vulture has assembled represent each kid's finest kills, so don't be surprised if it's a bit graphic. Graphically AWESOME, that is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like Bradley Cooper. I really do. But he should be somewhere playing the Flash, not The Crow.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I'm sorry, but Dude is about as dark and edgy as tapioca pudding.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He did dark and edgy pretty well in his last movie. But that doesn't make him right for The Crow.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

He did dark and edgy pretty well in his last movie.

Plus "One out of five, bitch! One out of five!" (did I get that right?)

But I agree. So NOT The Crow.

ONE IN FIVE, BITCH! ONE IN FIVE!

God, I loved that moment.

I saw him in an airport before he'd done anything else, and I wanted to go up to him and say something, but I really wanted to say that, and understood how psycho that sounded.

Because books.

One in five?

I realized I have Case #39 from NetFlix. I think he's in that, which I hope cancels out Miss Squinty.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

ONE IN FIVE, BITCH! ONE IN FIVE!

God, I loved that moment.

Such a great moment!

One in five?

Alias.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It was his character's turning moment in Alias. He'd been the guy who knew less than the audience, and was kind of a doof. Then he gets captured by a baddy, and he's been tortured, and he's being injected with this stuff that has a one in five chance of killing him. He manages to get free, and turns the tables on his captors and injects him with the solution, yelling "ONE IN FIVE, BITCH! ONE IN FIVE!"

And from then on he was with the program, and Will Tippen was cool.
