But one thing I can get behind is kids in horror movies. Generally they are killing someone or scaring the shit out of somebody, so they are less annoying than usual.
Case in point:
 |
| Gage, Pet Sematary My favorite achilles tendon-slicing tyke. |
 |
| Anne & Nicholas, The Others Not their fault they were pale-faced ankle-biters.. |
 |
| Esther, Orphan Probably the creepiest "child" on the list, no doubt. |
 |
| Rhoda, The Bad Seed Who even knew what a sociopath was back in 1954? |
 |
| Children of the Corn Because 'He who walks behind the rows' said so. |
 |
| It's Alive Perhaps the real reason I never wanted to get pregnant. |
 |
| Santi, The Devil's Backbone Poor guy just wants his story told with some retribution on the side. |
 |
| Miles and Flora, The Innocents Perhaps the title is a tad deceiving... |
 |
| Chucky, Child's Play Proving a kid doesn't even need to be human to be creepy. |
 |
| The Children This is exactly what I'm talking about! Goddamned kids. |
 |
| Alice, Wake Wood Ten times worse when they're back from the dead. Ask Gage. |
 |
| Eli, Let the Right One In Forever a child. Albeit a murderous vampire, but still... |
 |
| Kyra, The Sixth Sense My worst fear: a vomiting child. |
 |
| Damien, The Omen One of the first bad kids people think of, with good reason. |
 |
| Samara, The Ring Proof that adopted children aren't the answer either... |
 |
| The Brood Cronenberg is so delightfully warped! |
 |
| Village of the Damned Not one, not two...but a whole freaking town full of brats! |
 |
| Charlie, Firestarter What happens when the government gets in the way. |
 |
| Michael Myers, Halloween Because they don't always "grow out of it". |
 |
| Who can kill a child? "There are lots of children in the world...lots of them!" |
 |
| Tomas, The Orphanage Such a sad film at heart, but downright spooky. |
