that song has appeared in Scream, Hellboy, Dumb and Dumber, and
(the only movie I could recall) Batman and Robin

The above site discusses the "evil defect" like Dr Strangelove's hand or
Scaramanga's third nipple in the Bond series "Man with the Golden Gun"

I once treated a 50 year old woman in liver failure who had 4 nipples
She wasn't evil though
