* The climax of ''Film/{{Nope}}'' shows us that the FlyingSaucer that's been attacking the ranch is actually [[spoiler: the eye of an EldritchAbomination.]]

** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E1TheEleventhHour "The Eleventh Hour"]]: Used and turned [[UpToEleven up to]] [[IncrediblyLamePun Ele]][[TheNthDoctor ven]] by the eye belonging to an Atraxi, a species of starship-sized eyes with a crystalline "shell".

* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight'': In the Marble Gallery, there is a long hallway that leads to the outer wall of the castle. Throughout the hallway, there are windows in the background. A giant eye ball is always behind those windows. The eyeball has no purpose other than to stare at Alucard.

* In the FishingMinigame in ''VideoGame/{{Neopets}}'' you can fish up increasing sizes of giant squids. The largest -- the Titanic Giant Squid -- is too big to fit into an item display, and you can only see its eye glaring back at you.

* ''ComicBook/Bone'': In the issue #30, after Fone Bone, Smiley, Bartleby, the little possuns and the orphans enter a small cave to escape from Roque Ja. Fone goes to check if the mountain lion has gone, just to find Roque Ja's big eye blocking the cave entrance.

* In ''WesternAnimation/ReturnOfTheKing,'' Sauron's Great Eye surmounts his fortress of Barad-Dûr (this is something of a LiteralMetaphor), and Frodo and Sam spend some time dodging it's vision cone. The emblem the orcs and Nazgûl wear looks like a cartoony skull at first glance, but on closer inspection, is actually a black-sclera'd eye with a red iris, shooting a trio of EyeBeams. When actually seen near the climax, it shines like a second sun.

* In ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings,'' despite what [[Film/ReturnOfTheKing the]] [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings movies]] might tell you, the Great Eye is more of a metaphor and emblem of Sauron's power, no literal giant-ass flaming eyeball on top of an EvilTowerOfOminousness.

* ''Moby Dick: 2010''. Several US Navy sailors patrolling on an island, [[TemptingFate feeling grateful]] they're not searching for the MonsterWhale on the water. A RedShirt wades into [[ThatsNoMoon what he thinks is shallow water]] until a giant eye opens in front of him.
