Line 17:
* In ''[[Cells at Work!]]'', on at least one occasion, AE3803 (Red Blood Cell) does a scream take that gives [https://pyraxadon.files.wordpress.com/2018/09/5cvyq5q.png?w=335&h=188 her tongue or uvula] a mouth of its own (also screaming, naturally).
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* Parallax from the ''[[Green Lantern]]'' comics has nested jaws.
* Bliss the Morlock, from [[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]] has an extra mouth on her tongue.
Line 23:
* One issue in ''[[The Simpsons]]'' comic series had an [[Alien Spoof]] with an Alien Mr. Burns who sported a tongue that looked like Mr. Smithers, who himself sported a smaller tongue looking like the chipper Ned Flanders (which he promptly bites off in annoyance).
 
== [[Film]] ==
* The most iconic example is from the ''[[Alien (franchise)|Alien]]'' series.
* In a possible parody of the above and/or ''[[Tremors]]'', the [[Sand Worm|sandworms]] in ''[[Beetlejuice]]'' have these, which look like a miniaturised version of the same creature with a different colour pattern.
* In ''[[Evolution (film)|Evolution]]'', when a party of women encounter what most resembles a green pig, they are unnerved but also endeared- until it opens its mouth and something like a tiny vulture's head reaches out to bite one of their fingers.
* Played for laughs in ''[[Kung Pow! Enter the Fist]]'', where one of the signs of the [[Chosen One]] is that he has a face on his tongue (which speaks, though not coherently).
* In the restaurant scene in ''[[Monsters, Inc.]]'', one of the monsters has a second monster for a tongue, which eats the food.
* Although ''[[The Nightmare Before Christmas|]]'': Although Oogie Boogie]] is actually made up of insects, he for some reason has a snake for a tongue.
* ''[[Planet 51]]'' had a 1950's era alien society, where one female citizen kept a four legged alien dog based off the Xenomorph from [[Alien]], complete with acid pee and second tongue.
* The [[Sand Worm|Graboids]] from the ''[[Tremors]]'' films and series have ''multiple'' extensible mini-mouths on their tongues. In the first film, a single severed tongue is initially mistaken for an entire creature.
 
== [[Live -Action TV]] ==
* The [[Shapeshifter Default Form]] of the Polymorph in ''[[Red Dwarf]]'' is very similar to the creature in ''Alien''. Its inner mouth is used to suck out people's emotions.
* In an episode of [[X Files]] features a demon with a snake for a tongue.
 
== [[Newspaper Comics]] ==
* ''[[Calvin and Hobbes|Calvin]]'': Calvin once built a giant "snow snake" out of snow and pretended he was being swallowed by it, claiming that "horrible inner jaws" were dragging him into its gullet, since its visible mouth clearly wasn't moving. Susie wasn't fooled.
 
== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* The ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! (Tabletop Game)|''Yu-Gi-Oh!'']]'' trading card game has "Saint Dragon - The God of Osiris" (known to English-language readers as Slifer the Sky Dragon), who has a pair of ''stacked'' jaws. "Uria, Lord of Searing Flames", its Sacred Beasts counterpart, has a pair of nested jaws.
 
== [[WebVideo OriginalGames]] ==
* In ''[[American McGee's Alice]]'' the Queen of Hearts monster has the Mad Hatter's face inside her mouth, with Alice's face inside ''his''. See this at 4:11 in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9tDTj6ltL8 this video].
* Kog'Maw, the baby [[Eldritch Abomination]] from ''[[League of Legends]]'', has a strange proboscis-like mouth inside of his already gaping maw. He uses it to turn his mouth into a biochemical artillery cannon.
* The Leviathans in [[Gears of War]] have an inner circular mouth. This is seen in the second game when the player must jump inside of the monster's first mouth and chuck grenades into the inner mouth.
* Lionotus from [[Vindictus]]
 
== [[VideoWeb GamesOriginal]] ==
* In ''[[Dragonball Z Abridged]]'', Frieza's third form whips out a mouthed tongue for a half-second, poking fun at its ''[[Alien]]''-like appearance.
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* In ''[[The Tick (animation)|The Tick]]'' cartoon, the alien Thrakkorzog has a little face on his tongue that talks about eating brains.
* ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'' has a scene from an obvious ''Alien'' parody which takes Nested Mouths [[Up to Eleven|Up to Three]]. The alien in question has three mouths nested in one another, with the last one just big enough to pinch the Ripley look-alike's nose.
Line 52 ⟶ 58:
* Similar to Oogie Boogie, the evil tree in ''[[Flowers and Trees]]'' has a snake for a tongue.
* In ''[[Animaniacs]]'', Dot counters a Xenomorph with her boxed pet, which appears to be a giant [[Jerry Lewis]] caricature with a smaller head inside.
