This is pretty much always shot from behind the murderer for dramatic ~~reasons--it~~reasons—it partially obscures the victim, lending ambiguity and tension to the scene and [[Nothing Is Scarier\|helping the audience's imagination to fill in the grisly details]]. {{examples~~\|Examples:~~}} == [[Anime]] & [[Manga]] == * In ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'', {{spoiler\|Eva 01}} does this to an Angel in an incredibly disturbing scene. * ''[[Ghost in ~~The~~the Shell: Stand Alone Complex]]'': {{spoiler\|This occurs in episode where Batou recognizes the tactics of a serial killer from a CIA black op during a war. During the flash back they come upon a whole village brutally flayed alive and left to die. The killer in the flash back demonstrates this trope as Batou reaches out to touch him.}} * ''[[Berserk]]'' has a similar one, except it's a family of three devouring their newborn. Alive. * [[Junji Ito]] [[media:~~Binjo_Tsuji_4918~~Binjo Tsuji 4918.jpg\|shows us how it's done.]] == [[Comic Books]] == Line 29 ⟶ 27: == [[Tabletop Games]] == * ''[[Magic: ~~the~~The Gathering]]'' has the [http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=157419 Desecrator Hag] of [[Crapsack World\|Shadowmoor]]. == [[Video Games]] == * One of the most iconic moments in the ''[[Resident Evil]]'' franchise. In the first game, a zombie (the first one your ever encounter in the game) does this as he's eating Kenneth. Bonus points for being able to later {{spoiler\|find and watch a video of it from Kenneth's perspective filmed on his camera}}. * In ''[[King of Fighters]]'', [[Secret Character\|'Riot of Blood' Iori]] does this in one of his desperation moves. * Early in ''[[~~FEAR~~F.E.A.R.]]'', Paxton Fettel is occupied over a labcoat's body. He looks back at the camera to reveal the blood smeared around his mouth. * ''[[~~Saya no Uta (Visual Novel)\|~~Saya no Uta]]'' has Saya doing this. Fuminori doesn't catch it because of his warped vision. {{reflist}} [[Category:Horror Tropes]] [[Category:Over ~~The~~the Shoulder Murder Shot]]
