In visual media, it's important to make hits feel impactful. Through techniques like the Written Sound Effect, Hit Flash, and Hit Spark, emphasis is drawn to the collision. Alongside these methods, sparing use of Deliberately Monochrome can go the extra mile to have a scene stand out. If a normally fully colored work drops down to a single hue, that will leave a lasting image.
Compare Shadow Discretion Shot, which uses the existing scenery's shadows rather than changing the scenery altogether. May overlap with Gory Discretion Shot, as the silhouettes can hide the worst of the grossness. The Red Filter of Doom is also related. Dramatic Red Samurai Background is a specific sub-trope.

Fire Emblem: Lethality is a skill available to the assassin class (or equivalent). Occurring less often than a standard Critical Hit, this skill invokes a One-Hit Kill, complete with the screen going red and black in Awakening and Fates.

In the first episode of the anime adaptation of Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon one of these is use to highlight the moment of the protagonist dying after crashing into a vending machine he was trying to save and going over a cliff with it, which sets up his plot inciting reincarnation of him in a fantasy world as a sapient vending machine himself.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate:
In the reveal trailer for Ridley, he kills both Mario and Mega Man, with the visceral impacts highlighted by a two-color, red-on-black depiction.
Joker's Final Smash turns the screen red when it lands, leaving the background red, and the characters take the opponent (and subsequently, the opponent) black until Joker reappears at the end of the move. This was inspired by the effect that sometimes plays in his source game.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency: During the death of George Joestar II at the hands of DIO's last zombie, the camera pans away from him at the last second to a red background, before it is splattered with black blood as we hear him screaming.

Fist of the North Star: Because the manga revolves around martial arts that cause opponents to die in extremely graphic ways (usually by exploding into Ludicrous Gibs), the 1984 anime adaptation relied heavily on this trope in order to make the content more suitable for daytime television. Consequently, many deaths in the show feature characters suddenly shifting to monochrome palettes or becoming silhouettes as the background changes to a solid red or white.

Brutal Orchestra: Every boss has a special attack which breaks away from the battle to show a quick, brutal, black-and-white animation of the move. For example, Trigger Fingers' Headshot shows a hand pressing a gun to the back of a skull, shooting the entire upper face off, then pulling it down for a second shot that fires at the same time the animation ends.

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link: Running out of health results in Link turning into a silhouette as the screen is filled with Epileptic Flashing Lights; re-releases of the game since the 2000s change the flashes to different shades of red to reduce possible health risks among epileptic or otherwise photosensitive players.

Episode 7 of Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V, when Sylvio takes damage from Yuto's Phantom Spear, the impact is a black silhouette on a red background. This is used to make it seem like he was impaled, with the following full color shot showing that the spear only went through his coat.

Amphibia:
The scene from "Olivia & Yunan" where Marcy is possessed by the Core is punctuated with a blood-curdling scream over a 2-frame animation of her recoiling in pain. Said animation switches between Marcy being all black against a red background and vice versa.
When Sasha lands a decisive blow on the Core in "All In", the moment of impact is displayed in high contrast black and white before showing the effect in full color. The same effect is used earlier when Darcy cuts off Grime's arm, with the amputated limb landing in the foreground while Grime and Sasha are shown in silhouette in the background.
