Line 6:
The evil twin of [[Fan Service]] from another dimension, possibly with a [[Beard of Evil|goatee]] (especially if female).
 
'''Fan Disservice''' looks like regular garden variety [[Fan Service]], except that the creators intentionally use the circumstances around it to make the scene outright creepy or disgusting. Corpses in sexy poses, dialogue that adds [[Mood Dissonance]], seeing someone naked who you ''really'' [http://brokenteapot.deviantart.com/art/So-sexy-that-it-HURTS-154083257 wouldn't want to see naked]...there's a hundred and one ways that titillation can transform into horror. Just think of how many [[Slasher MoviesMovie]]s have [[Fanservice Extra]]s meet their demise by way of [[Death by Sex]].
 
Note that it often seems that film schools grind this into their students, as far too many movies intercut sex scenes with scenes of violence or [[Squick]], to truly rub in our faces the polarity of beauty and horror. Of course, the directors [[True Art Is Angsty|just want to be artists]] (that, or they're puritanical types who are obsessed with portraying sex in the most negative light possible). But sometimes it's implemented in a funny way, so the director can just mess with you.
