== [[Fan Fiction]] ==

* In the ''[[Homestuck (Webcomic)|Homestuck]]'' fanfic [http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?34086-MSPA-Fanfiction-IV&p=4484031#post4484031 "A Wound For Two"], Vriska rips out Karkat's heart. Incredulously, he still lives long enough to kiss her (and, it's implied, to be saved through cyber-prostethics).

* In the infamously gory [[My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]] fanfic, [[Cupcakes]], Pinkie Pie does this to Rainbow Dash's entrails while cheerfully cracking jokes. The fact that the jokes are entirely in-character makes it that much creepier.

* It's pretty much routine in any [[Gorn|snuff fiction]] that involves decapitation for the victim (almost [[Always Female]]) to be shown her own headless body before she loses consciousness. Usually while someone is still...[[Squick|making use of it]].

== [[Film]] ==

* ''[[Angel Heart (Film)|Angel Heart]]''. Seriously terrifying.

* ''[[Vampire in Brooklyn]]'': Combined with an invitation to "[[Bond One Liner|Put a little heart in it]]"

* ''[[Vampire in Brooklyn]]'': Combined with an invitation to "[[Bond One-Liner|Put a little heart in it]]"

* Ed O'Neill's character in ''[[Waynes World]]'' suggests that a man who got fired do it to his boss. The man replies that he'd rather file a grievance with his union.

** Wayne does it to Cassandra's father in ''Wayne's World 2'' during a daydream squence.

Line 52:

* The single goriest moment of the first ''[[Psycho Cop]]'' film has this, but it's not saying much.

* In ''[[The Chronicles of Riddick (Film)|The Chronicles of Riddick]]'', the Lord Marshall does this to a Helion Prime native who refuses to convert. Except instead of his heart, he pulls out ''his soul''.

* In ''Electra'' (no, [[Elektra (Film)|not that one]], the 1996 film with Shannon Tweed), the hero's [[Love Interest]] tears off the heart of a female [[Mook]], setting up a [[Bond One Liner|"heartless bitch!" line]].

* [[The Toxic Avenger (Film)|The Toxic Avenger]] does this sort of thing with various body parts. However, the first and arguably funniest instance occurs in the first movie, in which he grabs a man's arm and rips it off with such ease that the man has time to break out of a grapple and shout a threat to the titular monster before he even realizes his arm is still in Toxie's hand. As soon as he notices, Toxie smacks him to the ground with the disembodied limb.

* ''[[Braindead (Film)|Braindead]]'' : this happens to a victim when the zombies crash the party.

Line 72:

* [[Badass Grandma|Mother Lenka]], in ''[[Paladin of Shadows (Literature)|Unto the Breach]]'', rips the heart out of a captured Chechen fighter, and bites into it while the former owner is dying.

* ''[[American Psycho]]'': Patrick Bateman does this with a chainsaw and {{spoiler|a woman's entire lower half}}. [[Unreliable Narrator|Maybe]].

* Non-fatal example in the ''[[My Teacher Is an Alien]]'' series: Peter undergoes a voluntary surgery to allow the aliens to study his brain, only to wake up and have them off-handedly show him it [[~~Brainina~~ Jar|in a jar]], connected back to his body with wires. He's a bit freaked out, but they put it back in shortly thereafter and he's no worse for the wear.
