Vests are cool. Cymbals are cool. Monkeys are cool. Toys are cool. Combine all four and it should also be cool, right? WRONG. In fact, it's so creepy, that versions of this mechanical monstrosity end up in a lot of sci-fi/horror movies. Kind of the flipside of Silly Simian. If you see this one, you know the non-fun sort of weird is on the way. The Trope Maker is the real-life toy known as the Jolly Chimp. They were first released by the Japanese company Daishin C.K. during the 1950s, though it is safe to assume that the company didn't intend for them to come across as creepy as pop culture would come to find them. Given that monkeys resemble humans (being a related species), the Unintentional Uncanny Valley might have something to do with why these toys are so unnerving. The often deranged-looking yellow and red eyes further accentuate the creepiness. Compare with Creepy Doll. Can also be used for comedic effect, usually by having the monkey replace a person who is even more incompetent at the job in question. Commonly found in the expanded DC universe as the symbol of various incarnations of the villain Toyman. Compare Maniac Monkeys. |

"The Monkey", a Stephen King short story. In a nutshell, every time it claps its cymbals, someone dies, and the main character and his younger son both describe the feeling of revulsion they have when they see and touch the doll, yet also how they almost want to wind it up even though they know what will happen when they do. The comic adaptation of this by Glenn Chadbourne from The Secretary of Dreams (Volume Two) also features a cymbal-banging monkey. | |

Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders, a film made mostly from repurposed clips of The Devil's Gift, wrapped around a Framing Story. When this movie was featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000, it inspired Pearl to make Professor Bobo dress up as one of these to scare Mike and the 'bots. They weren't impressed. | |

The Drowsy Chaperone: The Bride's Lament — otherwise known as "The Monkey Song." In keeping with the way this musical stretches a gag, puts roller skates on it, then attaches jet engines, the climax of the song involves an entire chorus of "monkeys" in their little red vests clashing real cymbals over the final chords. | |

In How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, the Grinch has a giant version of one in his lair, and uses it to drown out the Whos' singing...along with using a jackhammer as a pogo stick and la-la-laing while riding it. He's later found by Cindy Lou with him holding his head between the clanging symbols until she gets his attention. He stops its clanging one-handed, causing the monkey to malfunction and shut down before he acknowledges her. | |

Fallout 4 has these disturbing things scattered all over the wasteland. Their eyes light up as soon as you get close enough, sometimes red to remind you that no benevolent God could have produced them, and they may or may not make noise. Even worse, they're frequently either the triggers for raider booby traps or loud enough to wake up a room full of previously-hidden feral ghouls. Fortunately, it's entirely possible to decapitate them either by blowing their heads up, or whacking them with a melee weapon. | |

Arcane. Vander uses a cymbal-banging monkey toy to warn the children hiding in his basement to hide because Enforcers are upstairs looking for them. Later Powder fashions the same toy into a crude impact trigger for a hex crystal, never stopping to consider that she has no way to focus the explosion. The resulting explosion not only fails to kill her intended target but also ends up killing nearly everyone she was trying to save except for Vi. | |

Gamer Poop featured one briefly in the fourth episode of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. A guard asks the viewer if they've seen his monkey, only for the viewer to turn around and find the monkey staring right at them. He even makes a bunch of hissing sounds just to really amp up the creepiness factor. | |

Teen Titans: In the particularly scary episode "Fear Itself," this trope was used to lighten the mood. The Titans hear an eerie "Help me... help meeeee..." coming from a closet. An innocent cymbal-banging monkey falls out and says "Help me, help me, help me count! One! Two! Three! Four!...." It's worth noting that Beast Boy smashes this monkey against the wall several episodes later. | |

Midnight: It's a cymbal-banging rabbit, actually, that Kyung-mi has in her house, and it appears to actually be a noise sensor—Kyung-mi is deaf. It's still creepy and is appropriate for the arrival of murderous Do-shik the Serial Killer. | |

Salvage King Masira's ship in One Piece has a Cymbal Banging Monkey as its figurehead, going along with Masira's monkey theme. It's also used in the actual process of salvaging ships. Sugar in the Dressrosa Arc can turn people into toys and erase everyone's memories of them with a simple touch, thanks to having eaten the Hobby-Hobby Fruit. The character Sai, who resembles a monkey, is turned into one of these through her powers. As was apparently a random gorilla at some point, as seen when the toy curse is broken. |

Toy Story 3 has one who is very, very frightening to look at. When night falls on Sunnyside Daycare, he sits in the second-floor security office, watching all the screens. If a toy tries to escape, he turns on the center's P.A. system and screeches into it while banging his cymbals. Lotso and crew are on top of the poor toy in moments. | |

It's almost appropriate that in the film The Return of the Living Dead, the effect of some garbage bags full of still-animate dismembered zombie pieces was created by filling them with cymbal monkeys with the cymbals removed. | |

The Holiday overlay based on The Nightmare Before Christmas puts cymbal monkeys in the Attic scene with the rest of the creepy toys from the movie. | |

Dexter's Laboratory: In "Dexter's Assistant", Dexter makes Dee Dee smart enough to become the titular assistant for a Science Fair project. She eventually considers herself too good to be the assistant of someone who can't stand having their calculations questioned and gives him one of those toy monkeys to be his new assistant. In the end, Dee Dee wins the fair and Dexter blames the monkey for losing. While doing so, Dexter unwittingly places his nose in a position to be hit by the cymbals. | |
