Line 20:
* David Kujan pulls this on Verbal Kint a couple of times in ''[[The Usual Suspects]]''. ("I've got immunity now." "''NOT FROM ME! There IS no immunity from me, you piece of shit!''")
* Most of the [[Perp Sweating]] scenes in the South Korean film ''[[Memories of Murder]]'', which is [[But It Really Happened!|based on real events]], fall into this category.
* Bud White of ''[[LAL.A. Confidential]]'' , hands down...to the point he frightens the officer trying to play 'bad cop', as well as the suspect.
* [[Transformers Film Series|"ARE YOU USERNAME 'LADIESMAN217'?!?!"]]
* The main character's partner is one of these in ''[[The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (Film)|Bad Lieutenant Port of Call New Orleans]]''. And the main character starts to turn into one himself as his addictions spiral out of control.
* Officer Mooney in ''[[Killer Klowns From Outer Space]]'' has to be almost physically restrained from beating up a couple of punks brought in for public drunkenness. He later takes a flashlight to the head of one of the klowns, which turns out to be [[Mugging the Monster|not such a hot idea]].
 
Line 37:
* Jack Regan of ''[[The Sweeney]]'' got rabid at times, too.
* Peter Boyd of ''[[Waking the Dead]]'' tends to get EXTREMELY SHOUTY and verges on violent at times, though usually one of his team is watching through one-way glass and bursts in to stop him.
* Jack Malone of ''[[Without a Trace (TV)|Without a Trace]]'' can be pretty worked up and he will do anything to get information on on those poor missing people.
* Jimmy Beck in ''[[Cracker]]'', once causing his superior officer to say 'I don't know what you did to him, but you scared the hell out of me.'
* Several police on ''[[The Wire]]'', but standout examples are Anthony Colicchio, who attacks a middle-school teacher for asking him to move his police car, and Eddie Walker, who breaks a teenaged carjacker's fingers just for giving him additional paperwork.
Line 47:
{{quote| "Who watches the watchman? I do."}}
* Averted in [[The Dresden Files]] book ''Changes''. Rudolph tries his best to play the [[Rabid Cop]], but all his desk-pounding and spittle-flecked screaming manages to do is cause Harry to crack up and the other interrogator ends up ordering him out of the room. It probably helps that Harry has seen Rudolph ''freak out'' whenever confronted with the sort of thing he deals with all the time.
* [[Stephen King]]'s ''[[Desperation (Literature)|Desperation]]'': Collie Entragian. Of course, ''I'm going to kill you'' not all he seems, ''I'm going to kill you'' this being a [[Stephen King]] novel. ''I'm going to kill you.''

Line 62:
* This is parodied in ''[[The Boondocks]]'' where a [[Rabid Cop]] violently accuses and assaults [[Butt Monkey]] Tom Debuoir for a crime that he obviously didn't commit before being forced out by the nice cop. He then rushed in 5 seconds later to assault Tom again.
* The titular character from the [[Adult Swim]] show ''[[Assy McGee]]'' is an extremely violent parody of a [[Rabid Cop]] (and a [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]]) despite being, as his name suggests, a pair of ass cheeks.
* ''[[Iron Man: Armored Adventures]]'' gives us their take on the NYCPD and the inexplicability of [[Family-Friendly Firearms]] at the same time. Doppelganger!Tony has just shot at unarmed people at a party with a laser gun and rushed off. The real Tony Stark is taken in for questioning, and one of the officers is like this, complete with banging on the table and yelling, "Did your friends give you the lasers?!"
* Though not technically a cop, Lock-Up from ''[[Batman: theThe Animated Series]]'' definitely counts.
