** Spherimorph and its BonusBoss PaletteSwap version Greater Sphere from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX''. It's just a sphere of some liquid that can shapeshift into a cylinder and a prism during its attacks. ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX2'' has the same enemy under name Amorphous, resp. Protean Gel.

* ''Film/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix'': Since Harry never visits [[TheAlcatraz Azkaban]], sees a depiction nor hears it described [[TheDreaded beyond being horrible and inescapable]], [[TakeOurWordForIt the books leave it up to the reader's imagination]]. The fifth movie, however, gives us a brief look at the building from the outside when expanding a line from [[Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix the book]] informing of a mass breakout of Death Eaters: a jet black, triangular prism-shaped building with a similar triagular hole in the center rising from the ocean with no visible doors or docks. And it's terrifying...

* Sort of averted in ''Comicbook/{{Lucifer}}'' in that cherubim take the forms of oscillating golden spheres because spheres are "perfect Platonic solids". They're actually rather pretty. Cherubs that took Lucifer's side have become diminutive ugly humanoids, for some reason.

* Appropriately enough, ThoseWackyNazis had the most evil-looking tanks of World War II. Their early-war machines like the Panzer IV and Tiger were basically just mountainous, forbidding piles of boxes, while their late-war designs like the Panther, King Tiger, and Maus were eerily plain, regular metal ingots. Both were as influential in their own way as Hugo Boss's iconic SS uniforms, inspiring villainous mechanical designs across the decades to come. The Empire's vehicles in Franchise/StarWars in particular owe a lot to Nazi German tank aesthetics.

* The short film ''Curve'' by Tim Egan features a woman who finds herself trapped on an unnaturally smooth, curved ledge overseeing a black abyss, the arc of which makes it visibly difficult for her to not fall off. It's not very often you see a horror short where the antagonist is a ''slope''.
