* ''[[Predator]]''. Just before fighting the title creature, Billie cuts two wounds in his chest with his knife.
* ''[[Fight Club (film)|Fight Club]]'': Joe/Jack/Tyler Durden takes this [[Up to Eleven|WAY too far.]] Extinguishing lit cigarettes against his own skin as a form of foreplay, burning himself with lye just so he can experience pain, and defeating a mobster by letting the mobster beat him to a bloody pulp.
* In ''[[Jarhead]]'', the Marines mark the new guys who have shown themselves worthy...by branding them like cattle. They (pretend to) do this earlier, as standard hazing practice.
* Gary Busey's character in ''[[Lethal Weapon]]'' holds his hand in a lighter flame until it sizzles, as a demonstration of Badass Loyalty because his boss tells him to.
