I love V.A.T.S. except for the cinematic part…
So two ghouls attack me, racing up a long flight of stairs. I pick a headshot on the first one. The other is entirely hidden behind it so I can't even queue my attack on it. I have a enough time and AP to spare to hit both, first one, then as it falls, the other.
I shoot the head off the first one. The head starts rolling down the stairs. The other ghoul reaches me and starts pounding mercilessly, while the cinematics shows the head rolling in slow motion, with my character doing nothing about getting murdered far in the background. Only after the head comes to a standstill three floors below, I'm given my control back and can try re-entering V.A.T.S. to get my second target while under avalanche of the enemy blows.
Is there any mod/trick/console command to return control and remove the cinematic part after the enemy is killed?

This is not possible in the original Fallout 3 without a mod
After lots of complaints they added a kill cam disabling feature in Fallout: NV.
