30 Perfect Horror Scenes Of The 2020s

30. M3gan - Titanium

A psycho-killer robot singing Titanium is one of those things you never knew you needed.

M3gan - in which an inventor (Allison Williams) builds a child-like robot named M3gan (played by Amie Donald and voiced by Jenna Davis) as a companion for her bereaved niece Cady (Violent McGraw) - was an enormously fun horror comedy in general and a flick that pleasantly surprised many people. It's got many memorable moments, yet nothing tops this. 

The evening after a school bully mistreated Cady, the now fiercely overprotective M3gan (who actually killed the bully) puts Cady to bed and reassures Cady that she'll always protect her. She then does something no-one could've expected: she sings David Guetta & Sia's Titanium as a lullaby. It's a moment that'll have everyone in absolute hysterics, and it's such an unexpected, bonkers nugget of comedic gold.  

Better still, despite how random it appears to be and how WTF it was, it actually kind-of fits the story. M3gan is telling the young girl she's looking after that she'll protect her to the end, so the lyrics about being bulletproof and indestructible feel weirdly appropriate. Also, M3gan herself is basically made of titanium - very clever.
