Make sure it’s not too general, please!
I love seeing movies where an apartment/house previously seen as inhabited turns out to look completely different without the implication of someone freshly moving out or be completely abadonned for too long to had looked like this at the time of previous insepction.
Movie I know of where it has happened
They Cloned Tyrone had this happen and I loved it so much.
I think I remember seeing this trope at least twice in some horror movies, but I don’t remember their titles. It always gets my attention.
I enjoy that moment when the seemingly invincible ruling class of the setting is finally vulnerable, exposed with all its weaknesses, and may even experience some hurt and loss for a change.
One example that immediately comes to mind is Equilibrium, where the emotion-stifling dystopia is revealed to be the passion project of one particular asshole who only allowed himself the privilege of his own passion.
