Shots taken from a cantednote angled, slanted, tilted, diagonal camera angle, often from a low position. Usually used to help create a jarring, "off-center" feel. Originated in 1930s German cinema, causing it to become known as the "Deutsch angle"; this was then corrupted to "Dutch angle", its most common name. Also known as Canted Camera. Like any trope, this can be played with. Some examples may start with a normal angle and then shift to a Dutch Angle. Others may start with a Dutch Angle tilted in one direction, and then swivel to tilt the other way, which is even more jarring. Done well, it can create an eerie setting that isn't quite right. Done not so well, in the wrong places, or way, way too many times, it can look a little silly. This was a particularly popular technique in The '90s, where (especially in advertising) it was essentially the 20th-century counterpart to Jitter Cam. Compare with Hitler Cam (the camera is aimed upwards to make one or more figures taller/physically imposing), Knee-High Perspective (where the camera isn't angled, but is still close to the ground, creating the impression of a small perspective), and Low-Angle Empty World Shot (the camera is angled upwards to hide nearby scenery). |

The classic 1949 film noir The Third Man makes great use of tilted camera angles through the whole movie. After finishing the movie director Carol Reed was presented (either by the crew or a fellow director) with a spirit level to put on his camera in future projects. | |

Omnipresent in Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction, probably to reinforce the "slightly off" feel of the series' setting and atmosphere. It's a rather light-hearted slice-of-life series... except for the massive alien ship floating above Tokyo. | |

Batman (1966) habitually tilted the camera 45 degrees so you'd have a visual cue that you were in a bad guy's lair. (The creators acknowledged that this was a Visual Pun for the villains being "crooked".) The Dutch Angle became so connected with the TV series that when Star Trek: The Original Series had Frank Gorshin (who played The Riddler) on as a guest star, they threw in a few as a homage. | |

The anime adaptation of Tokyo Ghoul uses a few strong ones. Of particular note includes a tilt as Kaneki first discovers that he has become a ghoul to highlight his newfound horror and frantic thinking. Another prominent moment is during one of his mental journeys in the sequel :re, in which the camera slants as he strangles his child self. | |

Channel Awesome: What with The Nostalgia Critic's mockery of Battlefield Earth for overusing this, you might wonder if the liberal use of it in Kickassia was a deliberate reference. Still, this can excuse itself with parody and Mundane Made Awesome (even though it is awesome). In To Boldly Flee, every shot with Turrel is done at a Dutch Angle. |

Used interestingly in the House episode "Insensitive". At the beginning, after a car accident, it shows a shot of the front of a properly oriented truck, but as the camera slowly zooms out, it rotates as well to show that the truck is actually on its side. | |

Star Trek: Picard: In "The Impossible Box", whenever Soji is dreaming, the angle of the floor slowly tilts from one side to another. When she's taught to take control of her dreams while meditating, this stops. In "Nepenthe", when La Sirena is caught in the Artifact's tractor beam, the camera is titled diagonally while Raffi explains to Rios that "The underlying code's all freaky Borg machine language" and after Jurati suggests, "Just tell them we want to go home." |

How the Grinch Stole Christmas! uses camera tilt as the default rather than the exception, giving the whole film as very strange, off-kilter look. Maybe this has something to do with the film being a fractured retelling of the familiar Dr. Seuss story. | |

In Eternal Darkness, the more insane your character gets, the more tilted the camera gets. One cutscene in the game even began with the camera tilted and in the lowest corner of a room. Indeed, if you use a Sanity-restoring spell or item, the tilt lessens until it disappears at full Sanity. | |

A startling use of this trope in The Face of Another. Dr. Hira the plastic surgeon has made a Latex Perfection mask for Mr. Okajima, whose face was blasted off in an industrial accident. Hira continues with the procedure despite his own concerns that the the mask could erode Okajima's morality and drive him mad. Right after the mask is applied for the first time, with Okajima sitting in a chair while Hira faces him, the image actually rotates clockwise 90 degrees. This causes Hira to loom over Okajima at the top of the screen as he goes on about how the mask will make Okajima a "new man". | |

The Twilight Zone (1959): In "Where Is Everybody?", these are used throughout the sequence in which Mike Ferris flees in terror from the movie theater into the town square. The carnival Dream Sequence in "Perchance to Dream" features these prominently. "Third from the Sun" makes extensive use of Dutch angles. In "The Fever", one is used for a shot of Franklin Gibbs at the slot machine after he's become obsessed and screamed at his wife Flora to leave him alone. In "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street", there are multiple such shots in the final scene when the residents of Maple Street go berserk and start rioting. Used throughout "The Howling Man". In "A Game of Pool", two are used during tense moments in the pool game. In "Deaths-Head Revisited", numerous Dutch angle shots are used during Gunter Lütze's trial at Dachau. In "Little Girl Lost", these are used throughout the sequence set in the other dimension. In "The Dummy", these are used extensively after Jerry Etherson starts hearing Willie and seeing his shadow while leaving the theater. In "Mute", several such shots are used when Miss Frank tries to force Ilse Nielsen into saying her name in front of her class for the first time. In "Death Ship", one is used to represent the E-89 being thrown off-course by Lt. Mike Carter's attempt to prevent Captain Paul Ross from landing the ship again. In "The Parallel", several are used to represent Gaines' disorientiation upon hearing radio signals immediately before he is sent back to his own universe. In "Of Late I Think of Cliffordville", multiple Dutch angles are used during the sequence in which William J. Feathersmith unsuccessfully tries to convince the people of Cliffordville, Indiana to invest in his ideas for new inventions in 1910, all of which are commonly available in 1963. In "In Praise of Pip", multiple Dutch angles are used during both the Good-Times Montage of Max and Pip Phillips in the amusement park and their subsequent confrontation in the Hall of Mirrors. In "From Agnes - With Love", one is used in the opening scene in which James Elwood and his supervisor find Fred Danziger frantically arguing with Agnes. |

Irresponsible Captain Tylor. When the Empress Azalyn says she's pregnant with Captain Tylor's child, the view immediately tilts to illustrate that even for a crew used to their captain's bizarre antics, this is a shocking moment. | |

Of all shows, Family Feud in the Richard Karn era would slowly start tilting the camera to a ridiculous angle coming into/out of commercial. In the last year or two, sometimes it would tilt in one direction (rapidly), then tilt the other way so fast it was dizzying. It could be even worse coming back from commercial. | |

Masterfully used by John McTiernan in Die Hard in the scene when Hans and John meet face to face for the first time. John McClane is unaware (or unsure) of Hans' identity, while Hans perfectly knows who John is. John decides to give Hans a gun to protect himself. For the whole movie McTiernan uses a straight angle for anything Hans-related (symbolizing Hans' straight, thought-out plan), and a Dutch angle for John (symbolizing his role as a fly in the ointment and his love for improvisation). Of course, Hans plans to shoot John, but you know before him that the gun is empty... because the camera slowly tilts in the shot of Hans aiming at John. | |

Star Trek: The Original Series "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield" features several of these, partly in homage to Gorshin's casting as the episode's villain, but also as part of a general visual theme of bizarre camera tricks throughout the episode, including extreme close-ups (used during the self-destruct sequence) and double-exposures (used during the climactic chase sequence). In "Wink of an Eye", the Dutch angle is used as a general indicator for when we're watching someone in the accelerated time stream. When Kirk and Spock start to hyper-accelerate, the picture tilts as the people around them slow down. The montage from "Amok Time", where it serves to show just how unbalanced Vulcans in ponn farr become. |

Masuda Eiji is fond of those, both in Sakura Discord and My Monster Secret, during serious dramatic scenes (especially love confessions).

Carmen's Pure Love: This film, about a stripper trying to avoid starvation in post-war Japan (it's a comedy, actually) is Dutch Angle: The Movie. Every single scene in the film is tilted from the vertical at some point, sometimes shifting from one side to the other like a ship in the waves. In the scene where Akemi and Carmen go back to retrieve the Doorstop Baby, the camera starts out tilted to one side, rights itself to vertical when the Sudo family comes out, then tilts back to the other direction when Akemi collects the child. | |

Several scenes in the satellite in Disc 3 also appear at odd angles, largely to give the appearance of life in zero-gravity. Final Fantasy XIII does this several times. Often from behind Vanille. Kefka actually subverts this in his victory pose for Dissidia Final Fantasy NT, stopping to grab the camera and right it before posing. The camera then falls back to canted as if to say "No, you're a wackjob and you're getting a Dutch Angle". |

On Father Ted, the episode "Chirpy Burpy Cheap Sheep" is a parody of mystery films. While the fathers search for a howling monster outside the parochial house at night, Dutch angles are overwhelmingly used. Then they discover the howling comes from a stereo hanging in a tree, and the shot slowly straightens itself. | |

Eerie, Indiana: In "The Dead Letter", multiple Dutch angles are used during Marshall's Dream Sequence. In "Marshall's Theory of Believability", several are used in the scene in which Professor Zirchon tries to sell the "space thing" to Eerie. In "Zombies in P.J.s", there is one when Marshall discovers most of the townspeople sleepwalking to the World O' Stuff to go on a shopping spree. |

Battlefield Earth: Infamously overused (to the point that according to the director, every shot but one is slanted), to much chortling from film buffs and movie critics alike. Might as well be called Dutch Angle: The Movie. Giles Nuttgens, the movie's director of photography, has stated on the record that he opposed the overuse of Dutch Angles. One reviewer describes this best: It reaches critical mass during a scene where the villains are watching something on a monitor. The footage on the monitor is at a Dutch angle, and the camera filming the monitor is also at a Dutch angle. There's a Dutch angle filming a Dutch angle. |

The 1966 Russian adaptation of War and Peace uses this trope to underline moments of chaos or emotional distress. In Part I the camera tilts and sways repeatedly during Pierre's Ten Paces and Turn duel with Dolokhov. In Part III the camera is tilting around again when the French are marching through a burning village. In Part IV this is used multiple times during the chaotic sack and burning of Moscow. | |

Used in the Babylon 5 episode "The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari" to indicate shifts between reality and Londo's hallucinations. Unusually, rather than cutting to the angle shots, the camera slowly tilts and slides into the angle as it moves with Londo. | |

Curiously, there's a few in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning that seem to pay homage to the first film, coincidentally with Kittridge's return. | |

In The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye, they arrive at a world where the deaths they've each caused are laid out in flowers at the foot of statues of them (It Makes Sense in Context), with each flower representing several lives. The panel where Megatron faces up to the true scale of the destruction he's caused◊ is laid out like this. | |

Noir uses this frequently, sometimes even from a low position. | |

Used at the end of the first American Pie, when Kevin and Vicky have sex for the first time. It is extremely awkward for them, symbolized by the shot being tilted just a little too much. | |
