Thanks... Actually it's a sub-sub-trope of Reaction Shot ! I was thinking of a variation of Oh, Crap! ... (didn't find one that is specific to this specific trope)
I'll have to find examples to illustrate what I am talking about ;)
Edited by ivanw24 None shall pass!

How about this one ?
As a character is about to meet its impending and violent doom (hit by a car, crushed by a falling piece of furniture, etc..) the camera switches for a split second to said character's face for a split second where he is shown to finaly realize his living days are over - with an expression of terror on his face - followed by a scene cut, a dark screen with the sound of the mishap or eventually the depiction of the event.
Any idea ?
