A villain's hideout, Home, Crib, Lair, etc. Dutch angles were used extensively in the original TV series and 1966 film of Batman, where each villain had his own angle. Scenes filmed in any villain's hideout, when only the chief villain and his henchmen were present, were invariably shot at an angle departing extremely from the horizontal. Such was the influence of this series in Britain that the colloquial term "Batman Angle" is still in common use today in that country.
