It seems like it's been around forever but the first time I can pin it down was in Top Gun.

[LittleStar12]

i can only think of top gun too, although on home alone when the boy plays a tape, they say it there aswell i think, an old man saying it in a black and white film.

but its been featured in many films/songs etc..

It was the tagline for the 1992 Sneakers (We could tell you what it's about. But then, of course, we'd have to kill you)

In 1993 it was used in the American sitcom Flying Blind, episode 11

What do you do, son?
If I tell you, Ill have to kill you.
