miscellaneous [Dark Trope] Implied child death

• Family Guy - In a deleted scene, Evil Stewie is shown entering the bully's house and giving him a noogie. It seems rather harmless until Stewie mentions "Why's his knuckle turning red?" Then screams of the bully are heard, implying that Evil Stewie noogied his head so hard it punched a hole through the bully's head.

• Old (2021) - In a deleted cold opening, a man is shown crawling and shouting for help in the aging island. What makes this more terrifying is that this person could originally have been a baby or child, it's implied since he's walking on all fours

I think that's in the Lost World. There's also a scene in the first book, where a nanny goes to check on a sleeping baby because she heard a noise, and finds that compys came in through and open window and are eating the baby.

Ohh I haven't read the books but I think I've seen that scene posted in this sub, comparing how tamed the movies are in contrast to the books. That's wild shit considering how the movies are trying to show the children being safe and the adults brutally attacked. I think Lost World movie is the only one where a child was killed.
