Most often a form of Bizarre Alien Biology, and usually played for horror or at least a thrill: instead of a tongue, a creature has another mouth, a face, or even a whole tiny head inside its mouth. Expect it to be nestled snugly among More Teeth than the Osmond Family, and it may have a few choice fangs of its own. The interior mouth may be a parasite, an offspring, or an actual part of the larger organism, such as a reproductive organ (the better to give you a Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong). Most of the time, it will just screech at the terrified protagonists and do nothing effective. The Trope Codifier are the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise. As such, expect a secondary mouth to be a common feature of the Xenomorph Xerox too. Note that some fish actually have something like this, called a pharyngeal jaw. While most of these are simply immobile bony blocks in their throats to "chew" food, in the case of the moray eel, it has the unique ability to actually slide its forceps-like pharyngeal jaw up its throat and out of its mouth to grab food and pull it down its esophagus. (Amusingly, this ability was only discovered in 2007, three decades after Giger designed the xenomorph.) This is one way of having Too Many Mouths. See also Multipurpose Tongue and Lamprey Mouth. Subtrope of Matryoshka Object. |

Hunson Aberdeer (Marceline's dad) from Adventure Time has a whole second head nested inside of his neck. It opens sideways and when he's using his full power his "regular" head splits open to leave the inner one on full display. Disturbing phallic (and related) imagery very much present in this case. | |

This is one of the features of the monsters in the Alien series, as pictured above. Originally the "tongue" was meant to be the head of the Chestburster, with the "adult" Alien being a biomechanical shell it built around itself. However, this was dropped during the design phase when the Chestburster was redesigned to look like a fetal version of the adult because Geiger's earlier design looked like an undead roast chicken. | |

The Sarlaac monster in Return of the Jedi is this from the 1997 special edition onwards. The only visible part of the creature was a wide-open maw with many rows of needle sharp teeth and a few tentacles to grab its prey. The special addition added a beaked tongue inside the maw along with some extra tentacles. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! seems to be fond of this trope. Uria, Lord of Searing Flames from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX has a pair of nested jaws; its counterpart among the original God Cards, Saint Dragon - The God of Osiris (Slifer the Sky Dragon), has a pair of stacked jaws. "Danger! Chupacabra!" is depicted with a long Xenomorph-like proboscis portruding from its jaw and ending in a Lamprey Mouth. Many of the monsters in the "Worm" class have nested layers of teeth in their mouths, but the one that probably takes the cake is "Worm Opera", who has a giant gaping mouth with a much smaller mouth in its throat. |

Zeruel from Evangelion: 2.0 has a rather horrific case of this. His outer 'skull' splits apart to reveal an extendable mouth with a tripartite jaw, out of which comes a purple, vaguely tongue-looking protrusion, out of which comes an enormously long 'inner mouth' with gigantic cutting teeth. All of this lovely display is accompanied by loud and unpleasant vomiting/retching sounds. | |

When that happens, her jaws split open, and a second mouth protrudes out from around her first mouth.

In the Chanur Novels, kif are stated to have phyrangeal jaws largely for the same reason moray eels do: they can't swallow without them. The outer jaws hold their live prey (they also have such weak stomachs that anything less fresh than "alive" is disgusting) down while their inner jaws chew their currently-bitten section into a fine paste that will fit down their straw-width esophagi. | |

Venom, main antagonist of Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, opens his mouth at one point early on to reveal the mouth of his still-conscious human host, who gives a quick speech before retreating back into Venom's body. | |

The Leviathans in Gears of War have an inner circular mouth. This is seen in the second game when the player must jump inside of the monster's first mouth and chuck grenades into the inner mouth. | |

Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger has a unique take on Cerberus, that famous three-headed dog from Greek mythology, as a Monster of the Week — instead of side-by-side, it has a massive dog head with its open mouth revealing another dog's mouth, which is open to reveal a third. | |

Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers has a scene from an obvious Alien parody. The alien in question has three mouths nested in one another, the last one is just big enough to pinch the Ripley look-alike's nose. | |
