Learn English – What would one call a list of people to be killed

word-request

I know this sounds kinda morbid, but is there an english word for a list of people who are to be killed? Let's say, a hitman gets a list of targets, what would he call it? My first though was "hitlist", but I'm not really sure if this is an actual commonly used word or just a made-up term (there's a movie or something called The Hit List) that derivated from "hitman" as a synonym for "killer" …

'Hit list' is generally the colloquial term, though I've seen things like 'Kill On Sight' (KOS) list used in certain online games.
