Line 37:
* In the movie ''[[Evolution (film)|Evolution]]'', Dr. Harry Block finds himself the unwilling home of a parasitic alien. It's not shown how it went ''in'', but it was extracted through his ass. Not willingly, either.
* In ''[[Tales from the Darkside]]: The Movie'' entry, the cat crawls inside someone's mouth. In the book, the cat burrows out of the stomach, but in the movie, he leaves the way he came in.
* In ''[[Snakes on a Plane]]'', a snake is shown slithering out of a victim's mouth just to drive home the fact that he's dead.
* The Ceti eel crawling out of {{spoiler|Chekov}}'s ear in ''[[Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan|Star Trek II the Wrath of Khan]]'', of course.
* A spider crawls out from a corpse's nose in [[Arachnophobia]].
* In the second ''[[Poltergeist]]'' movie, the father swallows an evil-possessed worm from a bottle of tequila, then [[Vomit Indiscretion Shot|barfs it back up]] when it starts growing larger inside him.
* A remarkably stupid version in the 1988 film ''The Uninvited'': a mutant cat monster that hides inside a normal cat. It's about the size of a rat when it crawls out of the [[Special Effects Failure|cat puppet]], then grows to about the size of a puma.
* In ''[[Resident Evil: Afterlife]]'' {{spoiler|Albert Wesker}} is infested with... something that occasionally peeks out of his mouth. Much like the Plagas from the video games, it has four insectile pincers and would probably take your head off.
Line 53:
** Rachel's burping up of the crocodile in "The Reaction". We aren't told exactly what orifice it came from, but she's definitely intact once it leaves.
* In one of Danish writer Jorn Riel's books, a parasitic worm leaves its host's body through his tear duct. It's not particularly painful or dangerous...at least for the host. Most of the damage is incurred by his mates, who argue about it so much the whole thing ends up in a fist fight.
* Several of [[David Drake]]'s stories feature [[Man-Eating Plant]]s and/or [[When Trees Attack]]. At least once, a man died in his sleep while roots grew up into his body ... and then a leafy tendril extended out through one nostril.
Line 59 ⟶ 60:
** Another episode had a tapeworm crawl out of a corpse's mouth.
** ''[[Bones]]'' did the same thing with a crab, and averted it with a boa constrictor (which exited via a corpse's torn-open gut instead).
* On ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' Willow's [[Back
* In ''[[Primeval]]'', the parasites crawl out of the mouths of their victims' corpses.
* In ''[[Fringe]]'', a drink is spiked with a genetically altered cold virus that expands into a giant slug (about the size of a rabbit) within the victim's body before exiting via the throat, choking the victim in the process.
Line 74 ⟶ 75:

** Retooled for Third Edition and presented in the Spell Compendium.
