This trope is about large breasts being used for humor, not any character with large breasts (large breasts are not a trope) no matter how big. If the character's breasts are supposed to be humorous the example needs to make that clear.

''Bad Apples'' is a [[SlasherFilm Slasher Movie]] by Bryan Coyne.

Ella Block (Brea Grant) is a young woman who recently moved to town from California with her husband, Robert (Graham Skipper) to start anew. The move was recent, so they're still unpacking. Since it's Halloween, Robert wants to carve a jack-o-lantern to put outside their house, even though Ella just wants to unpack all their things first.

Come Halloween night, Robert needs to work a late shift at the hospital, leaving Ella all alone in the house. That night, two teenage girls in masks come to her house for trick or treating. Ella is in no mood and orders them to leave. This proves to be a huge mistake on Ella's part.

The film was released on February 6th, 2018.
