Since the [[Vomit Discretion Shot]] is so common, there's nothing better to show off how [[Darker and Edgier|edgy]] you are than show the act directly. The grosser, dirtier, and more [[Nausea Fuel|nauseating]], better.
Line 12 ⟶ 13:
See also [[Vomit Chain Reaction]]. The distant brother of this trope is [[Waterfall Puke]], which usually applies to anime.

** After being forced to ingest a beaker full of worms, Hiroko voids her stomach contents all over the ground as soon as the bullies leave.
* Also happens in ''[[Bokurano]]'', where {{spoiler|Ushiro}} vomits during his battle due to the accumulated stress. He recovers a little faster and has to change clothes before continuing, {{spoiler|winning, ''and'' dying.}}
* In the un-edited versions of [[
* Kagura from ''[[
* Orihime, in volume 5 of the ''[[Bleach]]'' manga - more exactly, the fight with Numb Chandelier, after [[People Puppets|NC forces Tatsuki]] to kick Orihime in the stomach and she falls to her knees while vomiting. [http://www.mangareader.net/94-496-13/bleach/chapter-42.html With through-the-fingers spray effect].
** Nel Tu's "drool" has healing powers. When she runs dry, she tries tugging on her uvula to get more out and quickly learns it wasn't drool at all.
* Parodied in ''[[DNA
* In ''[[Spirited Away]]'', the monster No-Face eats and then later barfs up pretty much every single bit of food in the whole bathhouse, along with a few staff members, who are dirty and shocked but otherwise none the worse for the wear. Also subverted in that it's not exactly vomit as he has no digestive system to speak of.
* One chapter of ''[[Naruto]]'' has Tsunade vomiting after drinking too much and not only is it clearly visible, it is the ''first'' thing we see when the narrative switches to her from somewhere else. [[Bowdlerise|The anime removes this, and skips that part of the scene]].
** Earlier there was one from Kabuto before the first test of the Chuunin Exams after getting attacked by a provoked group of Sound Ninja. Again, in the anime, he just gets nauseous/disoriented.
** During their tenure in the [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Forest of Death]], both Sasuke (after he and Sakura get paralyzed by Orochimaru's [[Mind Screw]] attack) and Rock Lee (during his fight with the Sound Ninja) fall to this trope. In the anime, they're both turned into [[Vomit Discretion Shot
** Naruto ends up thorwing when trying to use a [[Breath Weapon]] attack that is described as being a lot like vomiting and he gets the wrong idea. The actual vomiting happens between panels, but we do get a view of the vomit leaking out of his mouth.

** And again after witnessing the [[Mad Scientist|"good docter"]] sacrifice a child.
** Before either of these, upon seeing the mutilated corpse of a woman killed by [[Jack the Ripper]].
* The first episode of ''[[Black Lagoon]]'' shows Rock vomiting off the side of the ship. It starts on the vomit and pans up to reveal him leaning over the rail. It's not seasickness, by the way, but rather Rock's reaction to learning that his company has declared him dead and thrown him to the wolves.
* Used in the manga version of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro
** Also used in the Satoko arc when {{spoiler|Satoko has a MASSIVE breakdown after Keiichi patted her head}}.
*** Another one during the Satoko arc comes when {{spoiler|Keiichi discovers the [[Body Horror|disemboweled remains]] of [[Kill the Cutie|Rika]].}} [[Justified Trope|Totally understandable though.]]
* In the Japanese version of ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', episode 65, at the end everyone goes out for pizza and Usagi is chugging soda. Rei teased her again so Usagi yelled at her and when Rei said what she said was true, Usagi turns gray and throws the soda up on Rei.
* Happens rather frequently in ''[[Gantz]]'' when some of the more squeamish players witness the gruesome deaths of the others.
* In Episode 20 of the 2009 [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]] anime, Edward is overcome with nausea as he digs up the remains of the... ''thing'' the human transmutation resulted in. It sets the mood for the scene immediately, as the viewer now also feels nauseous.
* This happens frequently in [[Panty

* Yukiteru once does this in ''[[Mirai Nikki]]'' after being attacked.

** There is also real vomiting by an extra in said scene [[Enforced Method Acting|as he's truly disgusted by all that's happening]].
* Where the cop being sick in the "Crunchy Frog Sketch" on ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]'' is a [[Vomit Discretion Shot]], the same moment in ''Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl'' isn't -- he visibly pukes into his hat and is then forced to put it back on.
* ''[[Team America

* Daryl VanHorne in ''[[The Witches of Eastwick]]'', inducing vomiting via magic ("Have another cherry") and later suffering as the spell is used on him.
* Ron Weasley vomiting giant slugs in ''[[Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (

* ''[[Drop Dead Gorgeous (
* The ghost of the poisoned girl in ''[[The Sixth Sense]]''.
* ''[[The Matrix]]'': Neo vomits from excessive mental strain and denial, after learning what the Matrix is and the condition of the real world. On an interesting side note, the vomit was ''[[Throw It In|real]]''. Keanu Reeves had eaten some chicken that didn't agree with him earlier that day.

* ''[[Osmosis Jones]]'' has it both ways. While Frank throwing up on Shane's teacher is done as a [[Vomit Discretion Shot]], a photo on the school paper shows the act in all its nauseating glory.
* ''[[Super Size Me]]'' has a gratuitous shot when Morgan Spurlock McVomits out his parked car window after consuming an entire Super Sized McDonald's combo. Being a documentary, it was completely real.
* In ''[[
* ''Dead Bang'' (1989). The alcoholic cop played by Don Johnson runs down an outlaw biker and is immediately sick on him. The biker is so grossed out he agrees to spill the beans as long as Johnson doesn't spill his a second time.
* ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]: Dead Man's Chest'', where Norrington has had more rum than he could handle the previous night.
* In ''Holy Smoke'', right after the main character discovers that her father isn't actually ill, she chunders into a trash can in extreme close-up. The fact that it's very obviously phony somehow doesn't make it any better. At all.
* Used for ''waaaay'' [[Too Much Information]] in ''[[Murder

* In ''[[Big Daddy]]'' the little boy Julian vomits after eating too much junk food and jumping on the bed.
** Technically, he didn't vomit because the stuff that issued from his mouth was whitish in color - just like the cereal and milk he had just been eating. The food wasn't even half-digested, as it had not gotten the opportunity to mix with his gastric juices. So he just regurgitated, which is a little less disgusting.
* ''[[Four Rooms]]'' has Tim Roth throwing up over the sight (and smell) of {{spoiler|a dead hooker}}. This gets extra funny points for being shot and flash-cut (in the style known from the "what did you do to our hostage" scene in ''[[From Dusk

* ''[[The Hangover]]'' features three of these.
* In the rather terrible horror film ''Junior'' (not to be confused with the [[Junior|Arnold Schwarzenegger comedy film of the same name]]), the protagonist not only vomits onscreen, but ''directly onto the camera lens''. Lovely.
* The Sam Rockwell film ''[[
* ''[[District 9]]'' uses this rather effectively.
* Every John Waters movie. Even ''Hairspray''. ''Multiple Maniacs'' actually has a character who ''eats'' puke. Literally, the Prince of Puke.
** Except for ''[[Cecil B. Demented]]'', which is ironic considering how many drugs everyone is using.
* [[David Cronenberg]]'s remake of ''[[The Fly]]'', because flies digest all their food externally. What does get the discretion shot, however, is Jeff Goldblum "reabsorbing" it.
** Gets increasingly hideous during the film's climax, when he {{spoiler|melts a guy's hand and foot, and is about to go for the face before Gina Davis talks him down}}.

* ''American Splendor'' is the comic version, with a vomit after a kiss. Gets [[Lampshaded]], too.
* Not sure if it really qualifies as "Film," but the video ''Slaughtered Vomit Dolls'' is basically this trope turned [[Up to Eleven|up to eleven...thousand]] and played as a fetish. Yes, a sexual fetish. If you have the slightest misgivings about whether you'd enjoy such a thing, it really is best you don't view it. Many people tend to react to the sight of another human being vomiting by following suit, and so morbid curiosity is, in this case, best left unindulged.
* ''[[Fear and Loathing
* The Japanese [[Cyberpunk]] [[Mind Screw]] ''964 Pinocchio'' takes vomiting to an almost fetishistic level.

* Used repeatedly in ''[[
* 2005 B-movie Tamara shows a character under a spell stick her entire hand down her throat and vomit a massive bloody puddle for the next two minutes. Obviously fake, but still repulsive.
* In ''Joshua'' the title character is disgusted with the way his family treats his baby sister compared to him that he makes himself vomit onscreen to make them pay attention to him.
* In ''[[Apollo 13]]'', Fred Haise succumbs to motion sickness upon reaching Earth orbit, and coughs up a chunk of vomitus into the zero-gravity environment of the spacecraft. (The scene was actually filmed in an airplane dedicated to parabolic flights to simulate zero gravity, nicknamed ... the Vomit Comet.)

* Duncan vomiting dog urine all over Kelly and Jason in ''[[Mystery Team]]''.
* Taken to a whole new extreme in Austrian exploitation comedy flick ''Auf bösem Boden'' (''On Evil Grounds''), where the film starts off with a first person shot of the protagonist vomiting - and by "first person", it means the camera takes the point of view of the puke itself, cutting its way from the stomach through the oesophagus and finally splashing onto the floor. Yuck.

She had swallowed the [[MacGuffin]] earlier for safe keeping, so when he asks to see it, she makes herself vomit on his desk and then picks through the vomit to find it.
* [[Bottom|Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson's]] ''Guest House Paradiso'' has what may be the vomit indiscretion shots to end all vomit indiscretion shots. Not only does almost every single character disgorge ''gallons'' of green slime after accidentally eating contaminated fish, but they do so with such force that one of them is ''blown out of a window'' IIRC. Critics hated this movie, for some reason.

== Live-Action TV ==
* The prize for most unrealistic vomit probably goes to the ''[[Charmed]]'' episode ''Long Live the Queen.'' Phoebe is the only character ever to have thrown up on screen (Piper vomits off screen twice in Hyde School Reunion and in her mouth in The Eyes Have It). After findin out her demonic husband has been feeding her evil juice, she throws up, but it's more like some water falls out of her mouth.▼

* ''[[Oz]]'' is a very mature show, so when people get sick we tend to see it. For example, Ryan has frequent bouts of nausea after receiving chemotherapy for his breast cancer. Averted in the case of Adebisi after he was rejected by Shirley and called a racist term, he becomes so upset that he trashes his room, smokes pot, and crawls over to his toilet where he vomits, but we don't see it.

When a friend of the victims sees the body of Sharon Tate at the opening crime scene, he rushes offscreen and outside for what the viewers ''think'' will be a [[Vomit Discretion Shot]]. Instead, he stops in front of a window and hurls the contents of his stomach in full view.
* ''[[Law and Order]]: [[Law and Order Special Victims Unit|SVU]]'': In one episode, a young man learns that his murdered girlfriend was, unbeknownst to him, his sister. Cue the facial contortions of disgust and vomiting.

** By far, the animatronic cast members have the most epic moments of vomit: in ''Self-Inflicted Wounds Part 1'' Moya is knocked headlong into a wormhole following a collision with another ship, and as such, Moya's symbiotic pilot is in considerable pain. When D'argo and Stark actually ask him how he feels, Pilot opens his mouth to speak and instead spews ''a small ocean's worth of pea-soup vomit all over his console, Stark, and D'argo's shirt.'' The expression on poor Stark's vomit-splattered face has to be seen to be believed.

'''Stark:''' (revolted) I had no idea ''anyone'' could do that! }}
** Rygel seems to be able to do it ''at will''. In "Green Eyed Monster" Stark annoys him by refusing to leave Crichton, Aeryn, Crais and Talyn to die, so after being [[Bound and Gagged]], the ever-charming Hynerian gets the [[Cloudcuckoolander]] to pull out the gag, whereupon he spews a great wave of watery green vomit at Stark, not only soaking him from head to toe, but getting some in his ''mouth.''

* Lying somewhere between this and the [[Vomit Discretion Shot]], ''[[Metroid]] Prime 3: Corruption'' has Samus getting more and more corrupted by the radioactive Phazon as the game goes on. After some bosses die, they dump a load of liquid Phazon on her, driving the corruption forwards. The first time this happens she kneels on the ground and the camera cuts to a shot diagonally from behind and pulls back; we can clearly see Samus spewing up a pool of neon-blue liquid.
* ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' characters vomit in a bright green stream accompanied by a rather disgusting noise. Since the game features fully positionable camera angles, you can get as close to (or as far away from) the action as you desire. Also, puking on players is a standard combat tactic of certain Undead units.
* In ''[[Fable]]'', the main character will vomit occasionally if you drink to much. If you drink so much that the screen is completely pixelated, he will stop and continuously vomit until the screen clears.

* In ''[[Dead Rising 2]]'' , Chuck Greene can attempt to rescue a drunken showgirl... who will vomit repeatedly over the course of their conversation. It's interesting to note that people can vomit in this game but not the first one, even though you could technically get food poisoning. Chuck also gets terribly sick if he drinks three alcohol items in a row. This contributes to the difficulty of [[That One Boss]] at a certain point in the game, because the area that you have to fight in has no healing items on hand except for beer and margaritas.

* Althought this is more of a text example, it fits the topic. In chapter 4 of ''Jury Macnitier'', Jury gets sick from her powers awakening in full, so after she takes a bow at her school play, she barfs up green sludge that smells awful, as the story describes. You can only see the projectile vomit hitting the audience, but it's enough.
Line 288 ⟶ 275:
* A Season 3 episode of ''[[Rugrats]]'', "Chuckie Loses His Glasses", involves Angelica stealing Chucky's glasses, wearing them herself throughout episode. However they cause her to feel dizzy and nauseated by the time her father returns to take her home. He notices she seems unwell and picks her up. Angelica then proceeds to spew straight into the camera and onto her dad's shirt. The actual vomiting part is cut in some showings of the episode.
* You can almost guarantee that every episode of ''[[Drawn Together]]'' will feature at least a dozen exaggerated vomit scenes (being a [[Gross-Out Show]]), sometimes in one scene.

* Done in ''[[Futurama]]'' a few notable examples include Dwight vomiting after smoking a joint, Leela fed rotten fish to induce vomiting from Mushu the sperm whale so he will upchuck Amy's watch which he had earlier eaten, and in response to seeing Leela slaughter the mutant Zoidberg in "Bender's Game" Bender pukes nuts and bolts.
** Also the two-headed alien goat in "Attack of the Killer App." It vomits enough to ''fill a small swimming pool.'' Then it dies, unsurprisingly.

** And when Finn finds out Couple Movie Night is just a romantic film he projectile vomits facing away from the audience, but you can still see a good deal of the puke pretty easily.
** Another example is one episode when Jake is sick, and complaining that his stomach hurts. Finn makes him some soup, Jake gulps it down, and then proceeds to vomit it back up.
** Another example is in "Too Young," when Lemongrab eats a large handfull of EXTREMEMLY spicy mashed carrots. He turns bright red, and projectile-vomits profusely all over his butler. (He probably would have kept puking, if he didn't abruptly start screaming and fall out of the window. The fact that he had been punched in the stomach in the previous scene might have had a little to do with it, too.)
