Often seen in natural Disaster Movies and works with apocalyptic settings, it's when a group of people starts running and screaming in panic during a life-or-death situation, be it a giant monster, a terrorist attack, or a tsunami, whatever the threat may be, it will cause absolute pandemonium, no, not that one, the other one that means chaos. It's a stock reaction usually Played for Drama, but it's also Truth in Television as it reflects human behavior during times of disasters and fear. Expect to see someone in the crowd to trip or get stuck and delay the others, or a shot of a lost kid looking for their mother. "Hurry up!" and "Don't push!" are common phrases that get yelled out in these tense moments, and as people just want to escape unharmed as quickly as possible, they typically act on autopilot. In animated works, this is usually accompanied by a visual effect to indicate rapid movement (with still images for added drama). When the Living Prop folks do it, and they end up dying amid the mayhem, then they are Red Shirts, but if others besides the living props do it, then it's a Mass "Oh, Crap!", and if they die, as well, it means that Anyone Can Die. May involve Deadline News. |

King Kong: King Kong (1933): When Kong attacks the native village while searching for Fay Wray, the natives leave in a justifiable hurry. And in the 1976 Kong remake, the crowd of New Yorkers has a similar reaction when Kong breaks out of his cage. |

Invoked in an episode of Chuck as FULCRUM agent Tommy marches Chuck at gunpoint out of the Buy More during Black Friday. Chuck tells Jeff the Covert Distress Code "pineapple," which initiates a no-questions-asked full-store evacuation. The result is that the shoppers stampede toward the exit, thinking there's a fire. In the chaos, Casey is able to rescue Chuck. | |

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu: Sousuke finds his bottle of biowarfare agent has been opened, so he puts on an NBC suit and puts the class into Lock Down. Naturally his classmates Freak Out, and when Sousuke tries to calm them down, he says it's all right for him as he's the only one wearing a Hazmat Suit. Sousuke then takes off his suit in a gesture of solidarity, which is immediately subverted when everyone beats him up for bringing a deadly virus into the classroom in the first place. They then panic again and try to break down the sealed door until Kaname succeeds in Shaming the Mob with a Rousing Speech. Unfortunately, Sousuke stuffs things up again by saying how there's only one antidote. | |

In The Purple Cloud, Adam returns home After the End and finds the streets littered with people killed by the titular Fog of Doom. He learns from discarded newspapers that the fog originated somewhere in the South Pacific and expanded north and west at a rate of about four miles per hour, giving millions of people months to try to escape. In Norway and England, the bodies of Europeans are outnumbered by foreigners who travelled thousands of miles before the fog caught up with them. Docks and train stations in particular are completely packed with bodies, some of whom were run over by trains trying to outrun the cloud. Adam also finds that some people tried to hide in blocked-off mines, only for panicked crowds to break down the barriers and let the cloud in. | |

Duckman: "Apocalypse Not" begins with Duckman's home city under attack by some sort of giant monster (actually a blow-up doll Duckman accidentally left connected to the airpump for too long), with the citizens fleeing in a massive panic. It then turns out this is being retold at a public preparedness meeting, with the mayor stating that the panicking crowd caused more damage to the city than the doll did, and the point of the meeting is to teach the citizens to stop blindly panicking every time there's an emergency. The crowd panics twice more during the meeting itself just from the mayor mentioning the POSSIBILITY of a disaster. And by using the word "tidal wave" as an analogy. | |

Jurassic Park: The Lost World: Jurassic Park includes a homage to the Godzilla films; when the Tyrannosaur starts rampaging around San Diego, among the fleeing crowds are some Japanese guys who probably left Tokyo to get away from this sort of thing. Jurassic World has one when the pterosaurs let loose by the Indominus Rex rampage head toward the Main Street area of the park, where lots of visitors panic and run for cover. |

In the entire Hitman series, the civilian NPCs panic and flee at anything vaguely violent or seeing someone with a gun in a non-military context. They'll also run if they find evidence of your handiwork, i.e. corpses or in some cases bloodstains. | |

Attack on Titan (2015) is faithful to its adaptation of the manga and anime of the same name, where it depicts people panicking en masse the moment they see an incoming titan to show how frightening the situation is. | |

This is what dooms most of the players in the first event of Squid Game; everyone walks into "Red Light Green Light" thinking losing just means going home with no money and hurt pride. Once two people are shot and it sinks in that losing means death, most of the players panic and run for the doors, resulting in their own deaths since they moved during a Red Light. Only those lucky enough to have a Deer in the Headlights reaction (or just have the presence of mind to not freak out) survive and move on. | |

In Artemis Fowl: the Lost Colony, after the first demon appears in the street, it disappears. The crowd "froze", but when it disappeared, the crowd "unfroze violently". | |

The Assassin's Creed series have this, normally when you kill someone in full view of them. Oddly, people will cheer you on when you fight with the guards, but flee in terror when you kill one. | |
