Instead of a standard zoom, use three or more shots, varying in distance but focused on the same point, cut together rapidly. Commonly used for shock value. Each cut is often accompanied by a sting. Common subjects are corpses and monsters, but it is not exclusively a horror technique. Also commonly used when someone is saying something Punctuated! For! Emphasis!; the camera will cut closer to the character's face with each word. |

The Smurfs: In "The Kaplowey Scroll", Grouchy becomes the victim of one of Jokey's exploding packages, and the camera cuts closer to his face just before he angrily curses "Kaplowey!" and makes Jokey vanish. | |

The Idiot: Akira Kurosawa does this as Akama watches Kameda walk away through the peephole in a door, zooming in on Akama's eyes. It's a striking moment, as Akama is a Crazy Jealous Guy, Kameda is going to talk with the woman Akama wants, and Akama's eyes are filled with homicidal rage. | |

The Simpsons: Used in the end of the episode "Bart vs. Australia", when we are shown one stowaway Koala clinging on a helicopter. Also happens in "Krusty Gets Busted" when Bart figures out that Sideshow Bob framed Krusty. Used in "The Old Man and the Key", with the camera cutting closer to Homer's mouth as he tells Grampa he's "Never! Driving! Again! EVER!" In "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming", Bart and Lisa get trapped in the Air Force base; Marge comforts herself with the thought that at least Bart is wearing clean underwear. Cue a dramatic sting and staggered zoom through his bedroom window to his briefs, still on his bed. At the end of Season 7 premiere "Who Shot Mr. Burns? Part two ", Maggie is revealed to be the shooter, obviously by accident—but the episode ends with a Scare Chord and a staggered zoom into Maggie's face as her eyes dart back and forth. In "22 Short Films About Springfield", this happens to Superintendent Chalmers after he sees Principal Skinner's kitchen has been set on fire, and questions the latter's claim that it's actually Aurora Borealis in there. |

In The Day After, this technique is used to pull back from Kansas City just before it is struck by an EMP from a warhead detonating high above. An additional effective touch is that the sound of the city's blaring air-raid sirens abruptly cuts off during one of the jumps. | |

Friday the 13th Used in Jason Lives when Jason puts on his mask, and we get a closeup on his one good eye just before the title screen. A staggered zoom is used on Jason in The New Blood when the Final Girl Tina finally comes face to face with him. When Rennie tries to run down Jason with car in Jason Takes Manhattan, a POV shot accompanied with a staggered zoom shows that she is once again seeing a vision of younger Jason. Used on Diana's eyes in Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday when she sees Jason's reflection from a mirror. |

Mortadelo removes the safety lock of a crane that has a TV camera mounted on it while recording a news program, and as the latter falls over the television host we see his horrified face being zoomed on the camera's screen followed by a "CRASH!" and static. | |

West Side Story does this, starting from an aerial view of most or all of New York City and cutting closer and closer in a series of jumps until it finally gets down to a single neighborhood of just a few blocks before the film cuts to street level. No stings in this one; it's eerily silent until the final cut when Jet Song starts. | |

Mon oncle d'Amérique: The final sequence shows a series of shots of grim urban blight, then shows an elaborate mural on the side of a building, a painting of a lush green forest. Then the camera goes into a closeup via a series of Staggered Zooms to show that the mural of the forest looks like meaningless blotches of paint when examined close up. | |

Done on one of Angelica's eyes at the end of the Rugrats episode "Angelica Breaks a Leg", accompanied by the sound of Charlotte's call buzzer repeatedly sounding, until Angelica's pupil fills the screen with black with one final long buzz. | |

Done for laughs in The Emperor's New Groove, where Kronk is holding the unconscious emperor over a waterfall, where the camera zooms out and out and out... until finally the waterfall isn't even visible, and the focus is on a monkey eating a bug. | |

Happens in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, when Link finally confronts Ganondorf: upon entering the room, Link immediately sees Zelda in the crystal Ganondorf captured her in, and the camera zooms in on her. In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the cutscene introducing the Hidden Village ends on 3 dramatic shots of the door where Impaz is hiding before the music and gameplay begin in earnest. |

Pictured above: in 2001: A Space Odyssey, Stanley Kubrick combines this with Quieter Than Silence when the camera zooms in on HAL 9000's eye on the front of the space pod that he kills Frank Poole with, and the sound of Frank's breathing cuts off abruptly. | |

Used a few times in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "Dragonshy", zooming out from the mountaintop cave as Fluttershy explains her objection to facing a fully-grown dragon, each jump punctuating the list of things she finds terrifying about them. In Friendship is Witchcraft, this scene is parodied quite nicely, with Fluttershy's story of her Hilariously Abusive Childhood. In "Lesson Zero", we get a staggered zoom in on Rarity whenever she decries something as "The. Worst. Possible. Thing!" After the third time (when Twilight has to go face Princess Celestia), we get a normal zoom out afterward, with Rarity meekly stating "I really mean it this time!" In "May the Best Pet Win", when Rainbow Dash announces the final contest will be a race through Ghastly Gorge, the camera pulls back to reveal the hazard-filled canyon. She even provides the sting sounds herself. In "The Last Roundup", the camera zooms in on Pinkie Pie when the other girls decide to "bring out the big guns" (i.e. use her Motor Mouth tendencies to get Applejack to open up about why she ran away from home). |

Doctor Who: In "The Caves of Androzani", when the Doctor decides to confront one of Jek's androids to see if it'll differentiate between human and Time Lord physiology, the shot transitions to the android's point of view via a staggered zoom into the giant lens on its face. Parodied in "The Eleventh Hour". The camera shows the things the Doctor is focusing on, but because he's still suffering from regeneration sickness, he focuses on a lot of unimportant things before noticing the important plot detail. |
