Ankle Drag | comment |
Alice is walking alone through the forest/Haunted House/whatever when suddenly she hears a noise. Ominous music starts playing as she looks around, obviously scared. Then suddenly, something knocks her down and starts to drag her away by the ankle. She screams for help, kicks at whatever it is and tries to grab hold of something, desperately digging her fingernails into the ground as she goes. Expect a final scream as she disappears into the shadows. A variation occurs in a swamp or lake, where something suddenly latches onto Alice's ankle and instantly pulls her beneath the surface. This is often followed by an underwater shot showing Alice struggling and flailing before she either drowns or manages to break free. The key point here is the fact that Alice is always dragged away by her ankle, never by any other body part. May lead into a horizontal Take My Hand!-like scenario as Bob tries to rescue Alice. Sometimes subverted via Giving Them the Strip if the victim's footwear comes off in the attacker's grip. Alternatively, a hero or antihero who intends to be Dressing as the Enemy may haul off a knocked out mook in this way, so that he can hastily steal their uniform. See also What a Drag for when someone is dragged behind a vehicle, sometimes by their ankle. Contrast Injured Self-Drag, when someone who is badly injured drags on their own to escape from doom. |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): In this Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) fanfiction, an enraged San and Vivienne Graham at one point pull a nasty variation of this trope off — specifically, San uses their shared body's claw as a meat hook in the leg of the Mook Lieutenant who pissed them off and drags him back. | |

As she runs, the ground collapses beneath her and she lands in one of the Bugs' tunnels and is confronted by one.

The X-Files. In the opening of "Nothing Important Happened Today" a man picks up a woman at a bar; while driving home she forces the car off a bridge into the water. As he tries to swim to safety, the woman (still sitting in the passenger seat) reaches up and holds his ankle until he drowns. This is our introduction to the Super-Soldier plotline, showing they can breathe underwater. | |

A variation in Life (2017) when the creature wraps itself around Rory's leg as he's trying to escape the containment lab. It's small and operating in zero-gravity so has nothing to hold onto, but his colleagues are forced to shut the hatch on him rather than let the creature escape. Eventually the creature becomes big enough to play this trope straight. | |

The Lost World: Jurassic Park: Eddie the mechanic is tossed out of his SUV by his ankle by two T. rexes, and is eaten.

Jurassic World: Claire's assistant Zara gets snatched up by a Pteranodon and let go when it and another Pteranodon start fighting over her, at which point a third Pteranodon grabs both her ankles in its talons and flies off with her before dropping her into the Mosasaur Lagoon, where she ultimately meets her end. Later on, several members of Hoskins's InGen security team are shown being dragged by their lower extremities into the brush to be killed by Owen's raptors after the Indominus rex becomes the raptors' new alpha and turns them against the humans. Jurassic World Dominion: When a Giganotosaurus breaks into an observation tower and attacks the group, Claire's ankle gets entangled in a loose wire that the dinosaur is pulling on and she gets dragged right up to its mouth. Unlike the victims in the first five examples, she survives. |

A variation occurs in Tremors as, when running away from one of the Graboids, Rhonda trips over a line of barbed wire which gets tangled around her ankles. As she tried to get it off, one of the monsters grabs the pole the wire is attached to and begins to drag her towards its open mouth. Thankfully, she is saved by Val who pulls her boots and pants off to help her get free and escape. | |

A comedic version of this is done in the Even Stevens episode "Secret World of Girls". After the girls realize the boys have been spying on their slumber party all night, they rush down to the basement to confront them. All of the frightened boys manage to scramble outside through the open window except for Louis; Ren grabs his ankle just as he's about to escape, and drags him back in as he screams. | |
