Hatchet Job 

Little Susie went home to a hatchet job last night

hatchet job 

A very, very, VERY messy way to kill someone in a video game, especially ones like Mortal Kombat or DOOM.
Scorpion from MK: Uh, that's a real hatchet job of a kill there.
Doomguy (who is covered in blood, gore, guts and limbs from head to toe): WDYM? This is cleaner than 90% of my other kills!
