Line 85:
** Strawberry Fields from ''[[Quantum of Solace]]'' (drowned in crude oil).
** Lampshaded in ''[[Goldeneye]]'', as the villain makes a comment about Bond's track record
{{quote| '''Trevelyan:''' ...or if you find forgiveness in the arms of all those willing women for all the dead ones you failed to protect.}}
** Lampshaded by M in ''[[Quantum of Solace]]''.
{{quote| '''M:''' Look how well your charm works, James. They'll do anything for you, won't they? How many is that now?}}
** This happens to ''[[James Bond (film)|James Bond]]'' himself in the [[Fake-Out Opening]] of ''[[You Only Live Twice]]'', as he's killed by assassins shortly after boinking a Chinese girl.
** Parodied in ''Illuminatus!'', wherein the British agent Fission Chips leaves a trail of dead Eurasian girls wherever he may go.
Line 136:
* Played straight in some ways, averted in others in ''[[The Dresden Files]]''. White Court vampires (specifically, the Raith family) play it straight, by feeding on Lust, sometimes to the point of killing their partner. On the other hand, the White Court is vulnerable to love, so sex that comes from real, genuine love will grant protection to the participants, which saved Harry on at least one occasion.
** Also joked about in the first book when Harry is asked in investigate a couple who's hearts exploded during sex.

'''Dresden:'''Either that or [[Sarcasm Mode|that was some great sex.]] }}
* In ''[[Vampire Academy]]'s'' third volume, ''Shadow Kiss'', Rose and Dimitri finally give in to their passion for each other...And right after the school is attacked by Strigoi and Dimitri is "taken." Right when they whipped it out, you knew something bad was going to happen to ''one'' of them, at least, since a huge plot point of their relationship is that it's forbidden.
Line 174:
* Not a horror setting, but in an episode of ''[[Night Court]]'', Dan is dating an older widow whose husband died while they were having sex. When Dan asks if they can have sex, she says, "I've killed before." His response is that he's VERY intrigued.
* Invoked in a [[Halloween Episode]] of ''[[Boy Meets World]]'' where the kids are being stalked by a killer out of the ''[[Scream (film)|Scream]]'' movies. The [[Genre Savvy]] in the group recognize that people who have had sex are going to be killed off.
{{quote| '''Eric:''' I'm dead!<br />
'''Jack:''' I'm dead.<br />
'''Shawn:''' I'm as sick as you can get without actually dying. }}
* The premise of the comedy series ''Laid''. A woman discovers that all the men she's ever had sex with are dying. In the order she slept with them. All in really random ways, like getting hit by a car or getting an aneurysm or getting hit in the head with an indoor cricket ball.
Line 257:
* ''[[Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog]]'': Penny dies in the third act, which was also when Captain Hammer started bragging about sleeping with her. During a PRESS CONFERENCE. While it is possible that he is lying (Captain Hammer being a total [[Jerkass]], after all), the fact that Penny looks uncomfortable at his assertion, not outraged, suggests they did it.
** Of course they did.
{{quote| '''Cpt. Hammer''': [singing] This is so nice; I just might sleep with the same girl twice.}}
* ''[[Things Mr. Welch Is No Longer Allowed to Do In An RPG]] [http://theglen.livejournal.com/89715.html 501-1000]''
{{quote| '''835.''' I cannot lure out the Psycho Killer into an ambush by having sex with another character.}}
* [[Weebl and Bob|"We were doing Position 97 near a porthole... and she just fell out!"]]
