It is by no means an exhaustive list. Those are just the ones that sprang to mind.
I wonder if anyone has posted a supercut of this trope on YouTube...
I think remembering that, at least in movies, it originated with Event Horizon is critical because it is the only one that takes into account any downside to transdimensional travel...and what a downside it was.
I will always mourn the loss of any possible director's cut of Event Horizon where the footage was so insanely over the top that the execs almost shit their pants.
More info here if anyone wants to read about the lost footage: https://web.archive.org/web/20210130023507/https://theunheardnerd.com/what-could-have-been-26-event-horizon/
It would have been a classic for the ages. The spike through the mouth alone is enough to make it live in infamy.
I wonder if the movie still holds up. I haven't seen it in 20 years, but it was the most terrifying movie I had seen up until that point, and for a long time afterwards too.
