* ''[[Hocus Pocus (film)|Hocus Pocus]]'': A non-lethal example. When snooping in a house where witches used to live, and informed that a virgin lighting the candle will return them to life, the clueless teen protagonist does just that, incidentally subverting [[A Man Is Not a Virgin]].
{{quote|'''[[The Nostalgia Chick]]''': "Fucking virgins, man! Why do we even have them, anyway?"}}
* Shane Acker's ''[[9]]'' is made of this trope. In the feature film version, it's because of 9's combination of being both very naive and very curious that over half the cast of the movie is killed before it's all over. Admittedly, 1's death was heroic suicide, but it was 9's curiosity that lead him to jam the talisman in the machine and wake it up in the first place.
