Aaaaah!!
After watching some of that clip, I'm going to be listening for that in the next action flick I see!
Cool article, thanks.

Interesting.
IIRC the fellow who yodeled "Yahooo" for the internet company's ads tried suing when he realized how often his vocalization was being used by them -- and how successful the advertising was.

That's very interesting. While it sounds kinda gay, the one from the movie "Them" really hit home. It was my first horror movie and I had nightmares for a very long time.

I used to work in an audio post house in L A.
We had this effect in our library and it was titled
"man being eaten by an alligator".

I'll never watch Star Wars in the same way again.
The scream, the scream...

"disembodied celluloid echoes "
Sounds like a fitting epitaph to replace the Hollywood sign when the cyborgs take over.

I say we rename it to "man turns around and mistakenly meets Hillary."

The end of the game "Doom 2" promenantly and repeatedly uses a very dramatic "khishunn...!" sound (sort of a cross between something very big being thrown, and an initiator to an explosion). Having taken a while to finish that final level, the sound is permanently drilled into my acoustic memory.
I've heard that sound used in many dozens of videos/movies/etc., to the point that I groan "oh no not again" each time; have never heard one sound clip used so many times over so many years.

Did Howard Dean also steal this scream?

Now that I think about it, the Dean Scream may have been a dub of the Wilhelm Scream.

I was always partial to R. Lee Ermey's scream when he asks Private Joker to see his war face....
"Private Joker, let me see your war face.."
"Sir, my what sir?"
"You know, your war face....AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
Priceless.
