* Z-grade horror ''Hell's Highway'' features the infamous Ron Jeremy having his penis cut off. Stunningly, he [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYpzLTzm3NM doesn't even notice] for a little while, attributing it to a girl's "sharp fingernails" and not a knife.▼
* The German low-budget horror series ''Violent Shit'' has examples of this in all three installments, for both genders. The [[Squick|squickiest]] example is {{spoiler|the killer piercing a victim's balls with a hook in graphic detail}}.▼

* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ND91tD9kZV8 "I shoulda yelled ''two''!"] gag from ''[[Caddyshack]]'' is classic.

* ''[[The Monster Squad]]'' has a scene where Horace, known to his friends and bullies as "Fat Kid," stuns the Wolfman by "kicking him in the nards," prompting the famous line, "Wolfman's got nads!" Earlier in the film, the gang had debated at some length whether the [[Wolf Man]] was so equipped, including the phrase "wolf dork."
* Kay attempts this on one particular scarf-wearing alien in ''[[Men in Black (
** "Got kids?...Want 'em?" *cue biting* .
* Mike from ''[[Monsters, Inc.]]'' deliberately landed groin-first onto a pipe in an attempt to make Boo laugh to reactivate the power to get her back into her room after the power went out... only to find out that Sully forgot to remove her "monster visor" meaning he ended up hurting himself for nothing.
* In
** If you have seen the previous part of movie {{spoiler|the scene where the dog, Jerry Lee, catches a pool table cue ball that was thrown at him, and '''breaks it in two''' with his teeth}} before he went ballistic, you can easily guess if he gave one wrong answer, Benny the Mule would have been gelded!
* In perhaps the most over-the-top example of this, Charlie Sheen in ''[[Hot Shots]]: Part Deux'' hits his pit-fighting opponent with a knee to the groin... and keeps it there for upwards of 30 seconds. Everyone in the building (including the cheerleaders and commentators... and the wife covers her infant son's eyes) is doubled over in excruciating pain, and by the end actual walnuts pop out of the victim's mouth, clattering loudly on the floor. To top it all off, the opponent says, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVGLJAxp6Oo "You win!"] in a helium voice before toppling over.
** Interesting choice of words. In the first movie, Buzz Harley gets hit in the balls by a supersonic plane tail fin (!) and squeaks "I'm okay!" in a definite helium voice. Which is quite unlike the falsetto squeak that should accompany the groin attack. They got it right in the sequel though.
*** By the way the first movie also features Saddam Hussein being hit in the groin with an ''atom bomb''. All this do indeed fall short of the sequel's epic ballbuster, though.
* ''[[Dutch]]'': Doyle attacks Dutch, thinking he's an intruder, but in truth, Dutch was here to pick Doyle up from prep school for his mom. One of the attacks was to Dutch's groin.
* In the [[Mike Judge]] film ''[[Idiocracy]]'', the moronic inhabitants of the future have made "Ow, My Balls" their most popular TV show. This [[Show Within a Show]] is one [[Groin Attack]] after another. The unfortunate star of the show suffers such "tributes" from fans at public appearances as well.
* Another [[Mike Judge]] movie, ''[[Extract]]'', uses the loss of a testicle in an industrial accident as the event that sets the plot in motion.
Line 41 ⟶ 43:
** This was apparently a traditional British playground punishment called "posting".
** It may have to do also with the quite enthusiastic way the Stooges played their fights and puns during filming, resulting in all sort of bruises and minor injuries. Repeated plays of the trope would have been quite, well...
* ''[[Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey]]'', when Bill and Ted put "the Melvin" on Death
* ''[[Big Bully]]'': As grown-ups, David Leary gets hit in the crotch with the see-saw by his childhood bully Roscoe a.k.a. Fang after {{spoiler|David admits to tattling on Fang over a moon rock when they were kids.}}
* Parodied in the film ''[[The Man With Two Brains]]'': Steve Martin kicks Kathleen Turner in the groin, and she does indeed double over in pain groaning "Uhh! My? balls!"
* ''[[Strange Brew]]'': While Bob and Doug where playing hockey, Bob's team tackles Doug, where he falls to the floor, groaning, "My left nut!"
* ''[[
** "No! Not that!"
** "Yes! ''That!''"
Line 55 ⟶ 57:
** When they break the Fourth Wall during the final fight and the fight spills into a musical number on a neighboring studio lot, and Taggart is about to punch out the effeminate director, the director begs "Not in the face! Not in the face!". Taggart complies by punching him in the groin, at which the director whimpers "thank you" before passing out from the pain.
** During their shootout in the movie theater Sheriff Bart shoots Hedley Lamaar in the groin. That's gotta hurt.
* And ''[[History of the World, Part I]]'': 'Goodbye, head!' *block* 'Hello, balls!' *kick*
* Somewhat averted in ''[[The Jerk]]'', when Navin attempts to kick a [[Mooks|goon]] in the crotch, only to have his foot painfully bounce off with a "ding!" Turns out, the goon's nickname was [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|"Iron Balls" McGinty]]...
* In ''[[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (
* The movie ''[[Love At Stake]]'', a comedy using the {{spoiler|Salem Witch Trials}} as a story plot, the main character Miles is subject to '''plenty''' of accidental nut-shots.
** By the end of the movie, Miles is carrying his bride-to-be in his arms, and
* In ''[[The Longest Yard]]'' (both original and the remake) a football was used to end someone's game ASAP PDQ.
** In the original, the targeted crotch was {{spoiler|one of the prison guards}}. In the remake with [[Adam Sandler]], an under-handed {{spoiler|line referee}} had the football meet his own two.
Line 66 ⟶ 67:
* ''[[She's the Man]]'', a comedy loose remake of a [[Shakespeare]] cross-dressing plot, had a girl cross-dresser get hit with a very fast ball to the crotch, double over slightly without pain... realize she's supposed to feel pain, and start yowling "Oh... augh... it hurts...."
** As has been pointed out many times on this page, getting nailed in the crotch hurts no matter what you've got down there.
* In ''[[Wasabi]]'', Jean Reno's character kicks a transvestite hard enough to lift her in the air and be sent flying to sit on a bank counter a few feet behind her.
* Not an attack per se, but the title character of ''[[Shrek]]'' takes a groin shot while he, Fiona, and Donkey are escaping from the dragon's castle (Shrek's holding the smaller two while sliding down a stone banister that has a large bump appropriately placed). His eyes cross, but (being an ogre) he [[Made of Iron|shakes it off more quickly]] than a human would.
** ''Shrek 2'' has Donkey accidentally nailing Shrek in the groin while trying to kick Puss in Boots.
{{quote|
'''Shrek:''' No, you got them. }}
** And in ''Shrek The Third'', Donkey kicks Shrek in the balls intentionally, while he and Puss In Boots were trying to convince a guy that Shrek was in a suit.

'''Roger''': ''[[Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion|Nose!]]''<br />
'''Smarty Weasel''': ''"Nose?" That don't rhyme with "walls"!''<br />
Line 84 ⟶ 85:
** During that same fight, when Eddie punches Stupid into Judge Doom, Doom's leg rises sharply and he inadvertently kicks Stupid in the nuts.
** And during the crime scene for Marvin Acme's murder, a cop is kicked in the crotch by a toon shoe.
** Roger Rabbit receives one himself in the cartoon short 'Trail Mix-Up', when running across a log in the saw mill and encountering a branch. And in 'Roller Coaster Rabbit', Baby Herman grabs a bull by the nuts whilst trying to retrieve his red balloon.
* For a Disney animated feature, ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]'' has a surprising amount of Groin Attacks. A performer on stilts gets hit with a wayward champagne cork (the hit itself happens just off camera range, but the result is unmistakable); then the same man uses his stilts to simultaneously kick four guards; and finally, Phoebus narrowly blocks Esmeralda from hitting his manhood with a candle holder. All in a span of about twelve minutes.
** Earlier on, when Esmeralda makes her first appearance on-screen, she is confronted by two guards; one slim, one portly. Her goat, Djali, rams her head into the chubby guard's crotch, and then uses her back legs to kick the thin guard in the nads.
** To be fair, though, this particular Disney film was really not all that kid-friendly. Entertaining, yes, but [[What Do You Mean
* In ''[[Rugrats in Paris]]'', when all the ninjas fall over themselves after Phil and Lil throw goo all over the floor, a fat ninja gets kicked in the nuts.
* In ''[[Rugrats Go Wild]]'', when Nigel Thornberry falls of the cliff, he is stoped halfway by landing on a tree branch, with one leg either side.
* In [[Peter Jackson]]'s ''[[The Lord of the Rings (
** Happens as well in ''The Fellowship of the Ring'', extended edition, when one of the hobbits takes out an Uruk-hai by throwing a rock at his crotch. Same reaction as his fellow in The Two Towers.
** Given the movie's interpretation of how Uruk-hai are produced, it's possible that the target's mild reaction was due to a lack of anything especially pain-sensitive in that location.
Line 99 ⟶ 100:
** "Ohhh, is that a police dog or what?"
* In the [[Peter Jackson]] zombie-splatterfest ''[[Braindead]]'' (AKA ''Dead Alive''), the vile Uncle Les gets nailed on three or four separate occasions, once with a severed arm used as a club. Another character is pissing on a zombie's grave when a hand shoots out and... makes Les look fortunate by comparison.
* The B-movie ''[[Vice Academy]]'' had a scene where a roomful of all-female rookie cops are being trained to strike the vulnerable "[[Unusual Euphemism|pressure point]]" on a
* In ''[[Once Upon a Time In Mexico]]'', the [[Antonio Banderas]] character, El Mariachi, not only temporarily subdues one of the bad guys with a punt to the testes, but seconds afterwards puts two mooks out of commission by ''grabbing and twisting'' their dangly bits. OUCH.
* Noxeema Jackson, the drag queen played by Wesley Snipes in ''[[To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar]]'' does the ''grab and twist'' to a threatening punk after he heckles the town women following their make-overs. She then delivers an etiquette lesson, holding on all the while. The punk learns how to behave ''very quickly'', as do all his friends who saw it.
* Averted in ''[[Kill Bill]] 2'': Pai Mei is as old as time and has reflexes fast enough and thighs strong enough to grab your foot and hold on so hard that you can't escape. It doesn't matter whether or not the Bride's kick connects before he "grabs" her: it doesn't work.
** Elle hits Beatrix in the groin during their fight to keep herself from drowning in Budd's toilet.
* A film called ''[[Moving Violations]]'' had a ''bowling ball'' fly out of a car in a spin-out and land right in an old man's lap with an audible "thump!".
* ''[[Hell Comes To Frogtown]]'' has Sandahl Bergman deliver ''three'' kicks to the "three-headed snake'' of the Frog boss. Hell's codpiece also painfully shocked him whenever he did anything unauthorized.
* ''[[Stand
* In ''[[
** The third movie introduces a rather horrifying anti-carjacking device. It places a metal clamp on the carjacker's groin and detaches, ''leaving it there while the victim drives off.'' "We call it the Boston jock-strap." <!-- Correct me if I got the city wrong. -->
* The kiddie-football movie ''[[Little Giants]]'' had the kicker nailing the kid holding the football in the groin instead of hitting the football during the kickoff. Complete with a run-up first. He was going for distance, too.
** Earlier than that, Kevin, the coach of the Cowboys little league team, was teaching them how to take down the titular Giants' star player (pee-wee league football is [[Serious Business]]). As he dashes towards the tacklin dummy/couch pillow, he goes out the second story window and lands straddling a tree branch (shouting, "Oh, doctor!") before dead-weighting into the swimming pool below.
** Actually, his wife was holding the pillow, but chickened out just as Kevin was rushing her and got out of the way. He ended up plowing through the window as a result.
* ''[[Tough Guys]]'' had one of the ex-con protagonists do this to a mugger. Said ex-con spent a few decades in prison, [[Badass Grandpa|but...]]
** {{spoiler|The final scene of the film depicts the protagonists doing the same to a Mexican border cop.}}
* Lloyd Christmas has a fantasy sequence in ''[[Dumb and Dumber]]'' where he uses a villain's scrotum as a speedbag for a while. Then caps it off with a bite.
* Indiana Jones tries this on the Nazi bruiser in ''[[

* ''[[Star Trek VI:

** Hence, this makes this instance simultaneously a [[Groin Attack]] without fulfilling the trope name at all.

* In ''[[The Dark Knight Saga]]'', Rachel [[The Dark Knight Saga
* In ''[[Flushed Away]]'', the male lead (a rat named Rodney) fails a jump and in his fall he suffers a series of groin attacks, including hitting a hammer, a shoe, a steel tube, among other things, he finally hits the ground, stands up, and a stray ball hits him again.
** Anyone familiar with rodent anatomy may have winced especially hard at that scene, given that a ''real'' rat's testes are nearly as big as its hind feet!
** Later, one of the rats chasing him and Rita gets hit repeatedly during the race though the sewer.
* In ''[[An American Tail]]: Fievel Goes West'', when Ms Kitty is being held hostage, the first thing Tiger does in his rage is kick one of Cat R. Waul's cowboy cronies between the legs with such force that he lifts the cat off the ground, and sends him flying through the air. He does so with a look of maniacal joy.
* In Disney's ''[[The Wild]]'', Nigel the koala jumps from a tree branch and lands on a metal fence.
* In the ''[[Bedazzled]]'' remake, Satan introduces Brendan Fraser's character to the devil's contract by having it (a very thick document that appears to be several thousand pages long) fall into his lap from what must have been a great height.
* ''[[Austin Powers]]''
Line 135 ⟶ 136:
*** Austin finishes off the last remaining henchman, Random Task, with someone's Swedish-made penis enlarger pump.
** In the second Felicity pulls it off on Fat Bastard, causing Austin to lecture her:
{{quote|
** (Everything else she did to Fat Bastard was not only not cricket, it was pure [[Nausea Fuel]].)
*** Mini Me attacks Austin's during their battle in Dr. Evil's moon base, Austin is kneeling and he slams his shin into Austin's crotch, causing his leg to hit austin's penis and his foot to hit his scrotum. Austin's eyes widen as he screams in agony. This is topped moments later by Mini-Me sinking his teeth into Austin's crotch, causing him to scream even louder.
** In the 3rd, after Dr. Evil had the tethered globe lowered on his head, Mini Me releases the tethered meteor landing on Dr. Evil's crotch. He had to find his balls, "One, two,... and three okay I'm okay."
*** The titular villain was also a victim of this as well when {{spoiler|Dr. Evil managed to reverse the polarity of the Preparation H tractor beam to stop him from destroying the world, and was being electrocuted by the energies backfiring on him (the key used to power the machine was his groin), which leads to [[Laser
* In ''[[
* In the [[Jack Black]] film ''[[Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny]]'', main character Jables, while leaving his partner behind, eats some mushrooms he finds in the woods. Turns out the mushrooms were hallucinogenic, which causes him to see some seriously messed up things, including the legendary Bigfoot. In the scene where he believes he's actually FLYING ON BIGFOOT'S BACK, he reaches out for the supposedly airborne guitar pick...and falls off of the tree he was climbing in reality, splitting his crotch on a tree branch, instantly snapping him out of the hallucination. Ouch.
* In the movie, ''[[The Rundown]]'', main protagonist Beck ([[Dwayne Johnson|The Rock]]) gets in a fight with some of the Rebels while hunting down Travis, gets tossed into a tree, in which when he falls, his crotch makes contact with a low hanging branch. Punctuated with Travis say "ohh Ow!"
* In ''[[
** Actually, they appear to be the kind of Chinese spheres you rolls in your hands in pairs for relaxation (kinda like ben-wa balls, but not the sex kind...or hey, maybe they are).
* In ''[[The Brady Bunch]] Movie'', a bully that was picking on Peter gets hit in the crotch when Peter steps on a bass drum pedal.
* This is the Black Knight's weakness in ''[[Scooby Doo]] 2: Monsters Unleashed''. There can only be [[Rule of Funny|one reason]] that a kick to the groin would hurt ''[[Animated Armor|an empty suit of armor]]''.
* In ''[[The Mask (
* In ''[[Miss Congeniality]]'', [[Sandra Bullock]]'s character is demonstrating female self-defense as her 'talent' portion of the beauty pageant, finishing with the acronym "S.I.N.G.". Benjamin Bratt's character is the unfortunate demonstratee, with Bullock attacking, in order, his '''s'''olar plexus, '''i'''nstep, '''n'''ose, and '''g'''roin.
* [[Running Gag]] in ''The Sword in the Sorcerer'' by the Princess Alana as everyone says how much they're going to sex her up and she responds, "With what?". {{spoiler|Backfires in the last take as the guy is a undead sorcerer without any balls, but still a healthy libido.}}
* Heavily Lampshaded in ''[[Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back]]'', with a villain called Cock-Knocker. No prizes for guessing his signature move.
* Inverted in ''[[So I Married an Axe Murderer]]''. When Mike Myers' character Charlie is struck there by a female opponent, he responds in kind. '''And''' it's shown to have an effect.
* ''[[Bullshot]]'' (1983). Happens twice to [[Comedic Hero]] 'Bullshot'
* In ''[[
* Say what you want about the movie ''[[Click]]'', but there's one great scene where Adam Sandler's character repeatedly kicks a guy in the groin while time is stopped, and the minute time returns to normal, the poor sap practically ends up falling over in pain.
* In ''Kingpin'', Roy E. Munson gets a swift kick from Claudia. He makes sure to note that she got both of them. He proceeds to retaliate in the form of breast punching.
** Later on he gets a self-induced one.

* In ''[[The Pacifier]]'', Gary the duck does this on cue to one of the mooks, with the standard result.
* This little tidbit from the movie version of ''[[George of the Jungle (
{{quote|
'''George:''' Uh-huh?
'''Ape:''' Well ''now's'' a good time to forget it!

* In ''[[From Beyond]]'' (1986), this trope is slightly subverted when Crawford knees a female nurse in the crotch, while trying to suck her eyeball out to get to her brains. Ew.
* In ''[[Planes, Trains and Automobiles]]'', the cabbie at an airport tightens his gloves before "helping" Neal get up from laying on the road. The next scene has Neal talking in a strained, high pitch voice.
* "[[Baby Geniuses|And then that plank will come up and hit me in the gonads]]." (This may not be the actual quote, but a) it's fairly close and b) this is ''Baby Geniuses'' we're talking about).
* In ''[[Little Shop of Horrors]]'' during the song "Mean Green Mother From Outer Space" Audrey II sings the line "... I'm gonna bust your balls!" and shoots a vine at Seymour's crotch, barely missing him.
** However, in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aXA7HVTBFs the outtakes], [[Rick Moranis]], Seymour's actor, was implied to have actually gotten hit below the belt.
* ''[[Monster
* ''[[Total Recall]]''
** Lori does this to Quaid twice the first time she fights him: once with her fist, once with a kick. Later in the film she stomps on them after capturing him.
Line 181 ⟶ 182:
* At the climax of ''[[True Lies]]'', as part of what could be seen as the terrorist leader's [[Humiliation Conga]] and [[Take That]], Harry thrust his AV-8 (A marine version of the harrier jump jet) forward as such to send the aforementioned [[Big Bad]] flying, horizontally backwards into straight into the tail fin. Cue immediate widening of the guy's eyes and mouth and clenching of the legs within the male members of the audience.
* In the movie ''Tough Guys'', old gangsters Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas, after stealing a train to zoom through the Mexican Border, give this to a Mexican police man at the end of the movie.
* One is actually delivered without physical contact in the 2008 ''[[Get Smart (
{{quote|
'''Maxwell Smart''': Well, that is a sucker punch to the gonads. }}
** For the physical variety, earlier during the paintball exercise in the same movie, after a crack about Max's mother, Max shoots the taunter in the crotch.
Line 190 ⟶ 191:
* In ''[[The Ant Bully]]'', a flying bug and passenger fly up the exterminator's pant leg during the battle to defend the colony. Searching for a target, one remarks, "''That'' looks vulnerable..." and the other opens its mouth very wide. Cut to a view of the exterminator; there's a small but audible crunch, and suddenly the man's whole body distorts into an anguished-yet-silly posture before he doubles over with pain.
* ''[[Predator 2]]''. Leona Cantrell grabbed and squeezed fellow cop Jerry Lambert in a tender place when he won't stop bothering her. Apparently this is a standard form of attack for her.
* ''[[Transformers (
** The Rail Gun attack on Devastator.
*** ...And how, pray tell, is a shot that takes a guy's ''arm'' off a [[Groin Attack]]? Simply having the [[Fan Nickname|Decepticles]] does not mean that any attack on him is a nut shot!
** ''[[
** From the first ''Transformers'' live-action movie, we have a slightly unclear example. When [[Badass Normal|Lennox]] does his [[Under the Truck]] move between Blackout's legs, it's not clear whether Lennox shoots the Decepticon in the [[Unusual Euphemism|nuts and bolts]] or the underside of his chest. (It also isn't clear whether it's Lennox or the F-22s that kill him.)
* ''[[Lethal Weapon 3]]''. Lorna Cole (played by Rene Russo) crushes one thug's testicles '''BARE-HANDED''' in a fight scene!
* ''[[The Avengers (1998
* ''[[Undercover Brother]]''. The title character does this to ''himself'' while wielding a pair of nunchucks during his final battle with Mr. Feather. {{spoiler|It was a feint.}}
* In ''See Spot Run'', Sonny Talia (Played by Paul Sorvino), gets both testicles torn off by the titular dog over the course of the film.
* ''[[Baby's Day Out]]'' is filled with them. Both humorous and horrific. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuiVqV16oag This one probably stands out the most.]
* The [[Bar Brawl]] scene in the ''[[Dukes of Hazzard]]'' movie has one when Daisy sends a pool cue ball shooting from a fan into some poor schmuck's groin.
* In ''[[The Goonies]]'', Data's "Pinchers of Peril" bite onto Francis Fratelli's groin.
** In an earlier scene, Francis suffers another one thanks to Data's "Slick Shoes"; Francis slips on the oil and lands on a log with his legs on either side.
* The ''[[Mr. Show]]'' spinoff movie ''Run Ronnie Run'' features Jack Black leading a musical number called "The Golden Rule Song", better known as "A Kick in the Cunt". Sadly, the act is merely sung about and not depicted.
* ''[[Butch Cassidy and
* ''[[Naked Killer]]''. Kitty stabs several men in the groin; when she later becomes a [[Les Yay]] contract killer the policeman who fell in love with her notices the similar M.O.
* The gun-nut police officer in ''[[Super Troopers]]'' invents a bulletproof cup and has his fellow officers shoot him in the crotch to test it. It works.
** Without any clothes. Cue [[Da Chief]]:
{{quote|
'''Mac''': Thanks, Chief! }}
** Then Foster gets tazered in the crotch by Ursula after he accuses her of cheating on him with her captain and of "crapping on his heart."
* Two in the same fight scene in ''[[The Mummy Trilogy|The Mummy Returns]]''. Evie groin-attacks a mook, and Lock-Nah groin-attacks Ardeth. Ardeth recovers quickly. The mook doesn't, but that's more due to [[Disaster Dominoes|Alex knocking a bookcase onto him.]]
* ''[[Inglourious Basterds]]'' has a tense standoff where a British agent and a Nazi hold each other's groins at gunpoint while sitting at a table. The Nazi ends up being ''killed'' by repeated gunshots. Yowch.
* After a naked meditation session is interrupted at the end of ''[[Private Resort]]'', a woman uses a big muscly guy's testicles like a 'stress ball' (they were just hanging there, so why not put them to use?). Completely oblivious that she happens to be using his vulnerable crotch as a stress relief device (even despite the moaning and groaning) she squeezes harder and harder each time she emphasises a point. She makes one last point and we get one final crunch. Joy and amusement fills the onlooking females in the group, and we cut to the end credits.
* ''[[The Running Man (
** Richards may or may not have grabbed that one guard by the nuts when escaping from the prison; judging by the way the man's body shot up, the sound of his groaning, and the position of where Richards' hand was just before tossing him strongly implies groin abuse.
** Amber does it to Richards before escaping from him in the airport.
** Richards kicks Buzzsaw in the crotch during their fight, but to little effect.
** Richards does it again to Buzzsaw, but this time with his own chainsaw, whilst fighting him.
{{quote|
** When Richards throws the flare at Fireball before he explodes, the flare is pointed directly at the spread legged Fireball's crotch.
** Amber does it to Dynamo in the network building while he's trying to rape her.
* Jack Black's character in ''[[Tropic Thunder]]'' gets 2 within the space of 10 seconds from the {{spoiler|child leader of the drug cartel}}. He then just manages to avoid a stomp that breaks the wooden stair his crotch was at.
* ''[[Big Trouble in Little China]]''. After Lo Pan's humanoid monster grabs Jack Burton, Gracie Law kicks it in the tender bits to make it let go.
* In the movie, ''[[Harry and
** Yes, the Bigfoot has a set of 'em.
** Welp, you know what they say about guys with big feet...
* Occurs in ''[[After the Sunset]]''. When the gangster Moret's goon refuses to let the female cop speak to him and tries to grab her arm in order to steer her away from his party, she grabs his testicles and warns him that unlike the other cops on the island, she cannot be bought off and will persist in trying to put Moret in jail.
* ''[[From Dusk
* In a scene that occurs late in the film ''[[Sister Act]]'', "Sister Mary Clarence" (she's still wearing her "nun" disguise at this point) is being held captive by two of the thugs working for the guy who wants her dead. She's able to escape by praying in order to catch them off guard, after she finishes, she lets both of them have it (simultaneously; they were on either side of her.
* In ''[[Home Alone]] 2: Lost in New York'', near the beginning of the "rematch" between Kevin and the "Wet Bandits," there's a point where Kevin rigs a staple-gun to a door that the two are trying to get through, and one of the staples catches Marv right in the "area."
Line 238 ⟶ 239:
* A weak attack, the mother from ''[[A Christmas Story]]'' hefts a heavy round present into the father's lap. In a high voice, he says, "Thank you very much!" When he unwraps it, he says, "It's a blue ball! How appropriate."
* In the mediocre comedy adaptation of ''[[The High Crusade]]'', Sir Roger wards off several of these from his [[Evil Twin|evil clone]] thanks to the chastity belt his bride has insisted he wear.
* The titular corpse in ''[[Weekend
