* In the 2012 remake of ''Film/{{Maniac|1980}}'', Frank incapacitates one of his victims by trapping her in an enclosed parking lot, hiding underneath one of the cars, and slicing her Achilles tendon as she walks past; since the woman is wearing stiletto heels, this also causes her ankle to fold over [[SickeningCrunch with an audible "snap."]] This was foreshadowed earlier when the woman was chatting with a couple of friends and chided them for horsing around with her, complaining that she "could've broken [her] ankle."

Later on in the movie, Hans instructs Karl to shoot out the windows so [=McClane=] will be forced to flee in bare feet across broken glass.
