The universal way for a character enters a hospital is to have the injured character on a [[wikipedia:Gurney|gurney]], being pulled down a long corridor into an operating room, with assorted doctors and friends surrounding him. This whole thing is often accompanied by a [[POV Cam|POV Shot]] of our character looking up at a doctor.
 
Line 20:
* Played straight in ''[[RoboCop]]'' as the horribly maimed Murphy is rushed into a trauma bay.
* Played straight in a terrifying manner in ''[[Jacob's Ladder]]''.
* Inverted in ''[[Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home|Star Trek IV the Voyage Home]]''--the—the gurney bit is when they're trying to get ''out'' of the hospital, without being caught. The "patient" is perfectly fine by this point.
* Done hilariously in ''[[Evolution (film)|Evolution]]'', when Doctor Harry Block has an insect-like alien get into his body and is carted into the makeshift hospital room for it to be extracted, all while screaming "FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING GOOD AND HOLY, GET THIS GOD-DAMNED THING OUT OF ME!"
