Bob is facing the camera. Unknown to him, an enemy is rising up behind him. It may be a giant monster whose head is rising up to his level, an enemy in an aircraft, or a much smaller enemy rising up right behind Bob. The important details are that Bob has no idea of the danger coming, and that the shot is continuously from in front of Bob until he has some inkling of the danger. May result in a Right Behind Me and/or Oh, Crap!. If Bob isn't a main character, he may be Monster Munch and never know what killed him. If they're a main character, they're more likely to be taken alive or subjected to the monster's curiosity. If the enemy is in a vehicle, there's a good chance it's a Surprise Vehicle. Can be subverted by an Offhand Backhand. Scared of What's Behind You often overlaps with this. Compare Vertical Kidnapping. |

Terminator: The Terminator: This is how we get our first look at the T-800's real body. The endoskeleton emerges from the inferno after losing its flesh covering in the tanker explosion. In Terminator 2: Judgment Day, when taking one of the asylum guard's places, the T-1000 copies the appearance of the guard as it rises up from the floor. The real guard takes notice too late. |

Sluggy Freelance: Parodied in Aylee's first appearance in "The Sci-Fi Adventure" when she's eating everyone aboard the spaceship. The shot showing her drooling behind Torg is from the side, but the idea is the same, at least until this dialogue: Later, when she becomes Torg's secretary, Aylee isn't actually an enemy, but both Zoë and the reader could be pardoned for finding her appearance after emerging from her coccoon the first time she went through a metamorphosis just a bit alarming. |

A Grimm season finale involves a large number of Black Claw Mooks storming Nick's hideout. Despite the odds, Nick manages to kill nearly all of them, but the last one shoots him several times in the gut. Nick falls and looks dead. The guy turns around and call his boss to let him know the job is done. Then Nick slowly rises behind him (having been granted a Healing Factor by the ancient piece of wood found by the Grimm Crusaders). The other guy is dead within seconds. | |

The Alien films love this: In the original Alien, when Brett enters the cargo bay looking for Jones the cat, one of the shots is from a low angle, looking up at him. It is very difficult to see unless one knows what to look for, but the xenomorph itself is clinging to the ceiling above him, completely motionless and blending in seamlessly with the piping and ducts above. In Aliens, we see a facehugger drop from the ceiling moments before it attacks Ripley. Also the abduction of Newt, where a xenomorph silently rises behind her in the water. In Alien³ we see the xenomorph creeping from the top of a vertical passage when one of the prisoners is trying to retrieve a flare from the bottom. Alien vs. Predator: The Xenomorph who tries to attack the sole Predator left in the pyramid. Amongst the Alien 40th Anniversary Shorts, the particular Xenomorph in Harvest seems to like approaching the humans stealthily from behind, doing it three times during the short. |

Another World has an example from the first moments in which you take control. If you leave the protagonist standing in front of the deep pool he was teleported into (and swam out of to avoid multiple tentacles belonging to an off-screen monster), you'll notice something appearing behind him. If you do not move despite this, the tentacle will grab him and drag him to a watery death. | |

Directionally-inverted example: Godzilla: Final Wars. Godzilla has just destroyed the rogue "planet" Gorath with his breath, and as he stands recovering from the effort, the camera cuts to a close-up of his face and a shadowy figure slowly lowering itself into the frame behind him.

Hunt turns to face him, and freezes in place with a horrified expression as he sees an undead Nazi soldier rising up behind the merc.
