Line 46:
* Count Rugen's assistant [[Evil Albino|the Albino]] in ''[[The Princess Bride (film)|The Princess Bride]]''.
* The 2008 movie ''[[Igor]]'' not only has every [[Mad Scientist]] have their own Igor...but one Igor (played by John Cusack) decides to become a [[Mad Scientist]] himself and win the Evil Science Fair.
* Also parodied in ''[[Return of the Killer Tomatoes]]'', sequel to ''[[Attack of the Killer Tomatoes]]''. Dr. Putrid T. GangreneGangreen the [[Mad Scientist]] (portrayed most lovingly by John Astin) is annoyed by the mere presence of his assistant Igor, who is a blond, buff, and tanned surfer-dude who wants to be a TV News Anchor.
{{quote|'''Dr. GangreneGangreen''': It's insulting for a misanthrope of my stature to have an assistant as good-looking as you!
'''Igor''': Sorry, Doc. Maybe if I walked with a hunch? }}
* [[Mad Scientist]] Doctor Finkelstein has one of these in ''[[The Nightmare Before Christmas]]''. He likes doggy treats.
Line 58:
* The butler and maid from ''Transylvania 6-5000'' were both hunchbacks, and a married couple whose son had an even more extreme hunch. {{spoiler|Or so it seemed; really, all three of them were faking to conform to this trope's groveling-hunchbacked-servant expectations.}}
* Krull of ''[[Mr. Sardonicus]]'' is more well-spoken and normal looking than your typical Igor, but is still a good fit. He's Sardonicus' main servant/doer of dirty work, and has a deformity in having an eye missing (because Sardonicus [[Eye Scream|ripped it out]]). While Sardonicus is the more villainous of the two, Krull is shown to be fairly sadistic himself, and ultimately gets revenge in a cruel [[The Dog Bites Back]] moment.
