The camera lens zooms in on the subject, while the camera itself is physically moved away from it, or vice versa. This effectively changes the focal length of the lens without altering the image composition. This causes the image's depth information to either compress or stretch, making the image look like it's getting deeper or flatter. To put it another way, while the subject stays about the relative same size in the frame, objects in the foreground and background will appear to change in size and distance relative to each other (the foreground may get larger or stay the same size while the background shrinks, or the foreground may shrink while the background gets larger or stays the same size).
Goes by many names, including optical compression, tracking zoom, dolly zoom, Hitchcock zoom, contra-zoom, trombone shot, smash zoom and push-pull zoom.
Often used to tell the viewers that the character in the focus of the camera has just had an emotional shock, although it may not actually be shown on their face. Sometimes goes hand in hand with Oh, Crap!.
First used by Alfred Hitchcock in the movie Vertigo as an Impairment Shot to show the audience what the protagonist is experiencing every time his fear of heights kicks in. The opening scene can be seen here displaying the effect about 55 seconds in.
The effect can actually be repeated in real life. If one stands in a tunnel with the horizon in view and walks forward, the horizon will appear to move further away while the tunnel shrinks closer. This is due to mathematical laws governing Relative Velocity.

Instead of zooming in or out, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess uses this for its camera controls.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask have low-key examples in some of their cutscenes.

A notable version of this happens in the movie Poltergeist during the ghost's assault on the family at the end of the film. The mother gets thrown out of the house at one point and then battles her way back in to save her children. As she's running down the hallway to the children's bedroom, a Vertigo Effect begins which soon turns into a full-blown special effect in which the hallway itself starts becoming stretched and distorted. The more the mother runs, the longer the hallway becomes and the further away she gets from her children's bedroom door. She eventually catches up to it by running at full speed.

The Simpsons:
In the segment "Hungry are the Damned" from the first "Treehouse of Horror", this kind of shot is used when Lisa first sees the flying saucer.
Also used in "Home Sweet Homediddly-Dum-Doodily" when the social worker announces to Bart, Lisa, and Maggie that they're being taken to "a FOSTER HOOOOOOME!"
And on "Principal Charming", when Skinner climbs a bell tower, a shot directly lifted from Vertigo.
And in "Lisa's Substitute" when Lisa sees that Miss Hoover is back and Mr. Bergstrom is no longer teaching.
In the "Treehouse of Horror IX" segment "Hell Toupée", when the Snake-possessed Homer confronts Apu and says "I know you are, but what am I?" before killing him.

Done in a cutscene in the original Tomb Raider. Tomb Raider: Anniversary also uses this effect whenever Lara looks down while hanging from a ledge.
Used interestingly in a cutscene from a fan-made level: the camera enters a large room, then uses the Vertigo Effect before it begins to pan around, giving the impression that the room has doubled in size.

Used to convey a rather different effect than most examples, in Star Trek (2009) and Into Darkness. As the Enterprise powers up its warp drive, a Vertigo Effect is seen from outside the ship, with the camera close enough that the Enterprise is in both the foreground and the background. This gives the impression that the ship is stretching as it accelerates past light speed.

An Ostrich Told Me the World Is Fake and I Think I Believe It is a Stop Motion cartoon that is heavy on Medium Awareness, with an outer camera showing the whole plasticine set while the "main" cartoon takes place on a different camera's monitor in the center of the frame. Neil is the protagonist, an office drone who eventually starts figuring out that he's actually a plasticine figure in a stop-motion cartoon. As the realization hits home for him, the camera does a dolly zoom to show his horror and disorientation—but it also dollies back far enough to again show the entire plasticine set for the cartoon.

Used very effectively in Journeyman at a climactic point in the story arc. Dan has tried to convince his brother, Jack, that Dan and his supposedly dead ex-fiancée Livia have been moving through time. Jack doesn't believe him—until, across a room, he catches a glimpse of Livia, who's come to him in desperation because Dan is in great danger. Cue contra-zoom on Jack as he realizes all the implications of seeing Livia alive.

In Iron Man: Armored Adventures, when Tony Stark exposes Obidiah Stane of hiring Ghost to steal the Iron Man blueprints to the Board of Directors of Stark International, he blurts out that his criminal days are over. When Stane remembers that Iron Man said those exact same words to him at a demonstration of the Iron Monger, causing him to realize that Tony is Iron Man, the camera digitally pulls back and zooms in on Stane’s face as he flashes back to that moment right after the Board removes Stane from his position of CEO.

Used twice as a visual shorthand for Peter Parker's Spider-Sense in Spider-Man: No Way Home, the first when Peter senses the Goblin taking control of Norman and the second when all three Spider-Men sense the bomb the Goblin planted in the MacGuffin.

Used in Mass Effect when sprinting. Even if you're out of combat, i.e. you cannot sprint, holding the sprint button will cause this effect without actually making you go faster.
It also accompanies the Bullet Time effect (except when zoomed into a scope, for obvious reasons). In Mass Effect 2, this was mostly power-driven, but it occurs at several plot-mandated moments of Mass Effect 3, such as the final round of the Boss Battle on Rannoch, where the Reaper leeeeeans in and stares Shepard down, and it turns into a quickdraw contest between Shep's markerlight and the Reaper's Energy Weapon.

Red vs. Blue was able to do this after switching to Halo 3, using the camera in theater mode. Previous games had a zoom feature, but it always switched to a scope of some kind. The camera in Halo 3's Theater mode zooms seamlessly (although very quickly, making it a bit hard to control). One of the first times it was used was in Part II of "Relocation", when Caboose sneaks up on Simmons.

In an episode of Malcolm in the Middle Lois inadvertently infects Malcolm with mononucleosis. As Malcolm is heading to the couch to lay down, Hal shoos him away saying he has to be quarantined from the healthy family members. Cue Malcolm looking down the hall towards Lois in her bed with the vertigo shot. It's definitely an Oh, Crap! moment for poor Malcolm.

Doctor Who:
"The Unicorn and the Wasp": Lady Eddison gets a zoom-in on her in this fashion when she realizes that the reverend is the illegitimate child she gave up for adoption decades ago.
"The Eleventh Hour" has a scene shot from the Doctor's point of view, as he scans the Leadworth village green for inconsistencies. Eventually, he hones in on a disguised Prisoner Zero, whose background and shadow stretches out behind him in classic Vertigo style. Particularly odd example, as it's not shot conventionally — rather, it's a series of snapshots strung together.

Ghostbusters (1984) uses this for its 'weird feeling' effect in a shot of a doorway to the collapsed roof of the 55 Central Park West tower.
