This is a must-be effect of almost every zombie movie. The hero sees a person who is facing away. The hero approaches slowly (as does the camera), maybe trying to enter a conversation with that person. More often than not an unnerving music plays. When we come close enough, the person suddenly turns around, revealing decaying flesh, bloody teeth and a missing eye. Oh my God, it's a zombie! Cue the Scare Chord. Compare Peek-a-Boo Corpse. See also Not a Zombie, Two-Faced. Not to be confused with anything related to Heel Face Turn or Face Heel Turn. Examples:

Of course, the trope isn't limited to zombies. Multiple face distortions can be shown this way. Sometimes, a Face Framed in Shadow can be revealed in this way, generally with dramatic results.
