Line 29:
* The Pale Man from ''[[Pan's Labyrinth]].''
* Kroenen from ''[[Hellboy (film)|Hellboy]]''.
** After Hellboy resurrects a long-dead Russian man named Ivan, the guy has to breathe in to speak and does so with a large wheeze.
* Michael Myers in the ''[[Halloween (film)|Halloween]]'' movies.
* In ''[[Quarantine (film)|Quarantine]]'', when the CDC guys enter the building, their gas masks make this noise; it's a little over-the-top.
* In ''[[The Grudge]] 3'', {{spoiler|Naoko}} makes raspy, gurgling breathing noises after she becomes a [[Stringy
* The gas-mask wearing slasher in ''[[My Bloody Valentine (film)|My Bloody Valentine]] 3D''.
* Non-villainous (but still damn creepy) example: the astronauts' heavy breathing in their spacesuits in ''[[2001: A Space Odyssey]]''.
Line 39:
* The thing that haunts Lucie in ''[[Martyrs]]''.
* The opening scene of Ian McKellen's ''[[William Shakespeare|Richard III]]'' has the title character leading gasmasked commandos in a raid on the previous King's headquarters. Once the tank smashes through the wall the gun battle is muffled, with the main sound being Richard's breathing through his gas mask up until the moment when he shoots the king.
* [[Cillian Murphy|Rippner]] in ''[[Red Eye (film)|Red Eye]]'' gets a distinctly wheezy breath after he {{spoiler|gets stabbed through the windpipe with a pen,}} which would do that to you. Especially if your idea of {{spoiler|medical attention for it is ripping it out with your bare hands and using somebody's silk scarf as a bandage/cravat to buy you some time for the climax of the film.}}
* Vega in ''[[Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li|Street Fighter the Legend of Chun Li]].''
* The appropriately-named Wheezy Joe in ''[[Intolerable Cruelty]]''.
Line 56:
** Also the creepy mutant hibernating liver-eating serial killer from episodes "Squeeze" and "Tooms."
* William Raines in ''[[The Pretender]].''
* The Ice Warriors on ''[[Doctor Who]]'' do this as well.
** So does the Astronaut in "The Impossible Astronaut."
** {{spoiler|And older Amy in "The Girl Who Waited".}}
Line 65:
* [[Evil Cripple]] {{spoiler|[[Lex Luthor]]}} in ''[[Smallville]]'''s eighth season suffered from this, due to breathing by means of a respirator.
* Tony Soprano from ''[[The Sopranos]]'' had one of these when he got particularly worked up.
* An episode of ''[[That '70s Show]]'' centered on the original release of ''[[Star Wars]]'' had Eric punch an asthmatic rival for Donna's affections in the nose; this causes him to speak in a Vader-like voice ("Donna WILL be mine!") and develop the trademark breathing.
Line 90:
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Regenerators from ''[[Resident Evil 4]]''. * hiss*
** No, Vader only breathes in and out. These things sound like someone might if they tried to breath with a slit throat.
* King K. Rool in ''[[Donkey Kong Country|Donkey Kong 64]]'', in a rather obvious nod to ''[[Star Wars]]''.
Line 109:
* The ending seasons of the ''[[Mega Man Battle Network|Mega Man Battle Network/Rockman.EXE]]'' featured Zero.EXE. It helps that he's not only based on a hero, but is seen working for the [[The Dark Side|side of evil]] at first and has a [[Laser Blade|lightsaber]] for an arm when he fights?
* Vohaul from ''[[Space Quest]] II'' is hooked up to a ventilator machine (although his dialog is all text).
* [[Battle Realms|Battle Realms']] Lotus Clan has a unit called the Diseased One, which attacks by coughing toxic spores onto enemies.
* Non-evil example: the volus in ''[[Mass Effect]]''. The drastic differences in pressure and gravity require them to wear special environment suits on other planets (or at least all the ones Shepard has seen them on).
* [[Knights of the Old Republic]] 2 has a section where you character must don a spacesuit to travel across the outside of a space station. Seeing as it's a [[Star Wars]] game and as such, you can't go ten minutes without a [[Shout-Out]], the spacesuit has breating very similar to Vader's.
Line 116:
* The Vores from ''[[Quake (series)|Quake]]'' appear to suffer from this.
* One of the sound effects in ''[[Fate/stay night]]'', generally only used in very creepy situations and when the narrator is sufficiently badly injured.
* In ''Darkfall: Lost Souls'', the Inspector whom you play has emphysema, and starts breathing hard if you climb steps or ladders, or stay in one place outside in the cold for long. The opening segment of the game consists of a black screen, and the sound of his increasingly-desperate attempts to draw air into what's left of his lungs.
* ''[[Wolfenstein (2009 video game)|Wolfenstein]]'s'' [[Powered Armor|Heavy Troopers]] sound like this, if you can get close to them unnoticed. It's probably because they're vat-grown [[Super Soldier|Super Soldiers]] with insufficiently developed lungs.
* [[Runescape]] has Mi-Gor, a small zombie wearing a gas mask. The breath is not actually heard, just described in the dialogue lines as *wheeze* before every line, and before that, "as if someone is trying to talk with his throat full of mud".
Line 128:
* Wheezy the weasel from ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'', complete with hacking and coughing, due to his [[Good Smoking, Evil Smoking|smoking habits]].
* In the ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'' episode "Teed Off" the groundskeeper whose job is to ensure that Mr. Dupette wins has a respirator just like Darth Vader.
** Another episode features a rogue vacuum cleaner that does this as it comes after Rocko and friends.
== [[Web Original]] ==
* [[One Hundred Yard Stare]]: The mysterious masked man suffers from this condition.
