I found this video on Vimeo that shows a montage of different dolly zooms used throughout cinema, from films like Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo (which apparently made the technique famous and introduced it, more or less, into mainstream Hollywood) and Lord of the Rings, and even into music videos like “Thriller.”

The shots can be a little disorienting, but they’re pretty fascinating to look at, and definitely establish a stylistic theme of confusion, fear, and mystery.

Note: Just a warning that the music in the video can be a little annoying and overbearing.
