* ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'': The [[ChainsawGood Chainsaw]] Men are sack-wearing villagers who featured heavily in the marketing for the game. Infected with a malevolent parasite and controlled by the local cult, they are much more durable than the common Ganado enemy. They charge and slash at Leon, [[OffWithHisHead decapitating]] him if the player fails to PressXToNotDie.

They charge Fail to keep your distance from them and slash at Leon, Leon will suddenly find himself [[OffWithHisHead decapitating]] him if the player fails a good 10 to PressXToNotDie.12 pounds lighter]]. The remake's version forgoes decapitation in favor of an equally nasty chainsaw impalement, but you now at least have a chance to parry his OneHitKill attack.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''Film/DarkNightOfTheScarecrow'', when Bubba is wrongly accused of murdering a young girl, he hides from [[TorchesAndPitchforks a vigilante gang]] by donning a burlap mask and pretending to be a scarecrow. His disguise doesn't work, and the vigilantes kill him. When he comes back as a ghost to [[GhostlyGoals get revenge]], he's still wearing the [[ScaryScarecrows scarecrow getup]]. This is a rare case where the mask has a cut-out hole for the mouth, giving him an unsettling GhostlyGape.

An Axe To Grind is no longer a trope


* In the ''Film/FearStreet'' trilogy, the Camp Nightwing Killer (a pretty overt homage to Jason Voorhees, below) wears one of these. He features most prominently in the second film, ''Fear Street 1978'', where he terrorizes a summer camp with an [[AnAxeToGrind axe]], although he doesn't actually get his sack-cloth mask until pretty late in the movie. An interesting twist is that he never actually puts the bag on himself - someone else puts it over his head to try to choke him, but it doesn't work, and he simply never takes it off.
