The Wilhelm scream is a frequently-used film and television stock sound effect first used in 1951 for the film Distant Drums. The effect gained new popularity (its use often becoming an in-joke) after it was used in Star Wars and many other blockbuster films as well as television programs and video games.[2] The scream is often used when someone is falling to his death from great height.
The Wilhelm scream has become a well-known cinematic sound cliché, and is claimed to have been used in over 140 films.
A Wilhelm Scream is a pretty good band. 😛
There’s a cry of a red tailed hawk that was used in a ton of westerns. It became an audio symbol to indicate that the scene is in the Rockies.
I’ve noticed that in so many movies, lol.
