YMMV / Badlands

• Award Snub: The film received no Academy Award nominations despite being critically praised.
• Evil Is Cool: Kit may be a homicidal sociopath, but he's such a cool guy it's hard not to like him.
• Harsher in Hindsight: The final exchange of the movie, said after Holly gives us the chilling news of Kit's execution and having his body sold to science.
  Kit: Sir? Where'd you get that hat?
  Officer: State.
  Kit: Boy, I'd like to buy me one of them.
  Officer: You're quite an individual, Kit.
  Kit: Think they'll take that into consideration?
  (Holly smiles.)
