Fascinating history of the Wilhelm scream.

From the article, *The Wilhelm has punctuated the death and dismemberment of dozens of characters in some 20 to 25 movies, particularly in those associated with George Lucas.*

Hehe, I've noticed that scream, there's also a flash sound effect that I originally heard in the game DooM II which is used in every second movie that hits the screen.

I've also heard certain Star Wars sound effects cribbed for a bunch of movies and TV shows.

I hadn't noticed the Wilhem scream conciously before, but I did Goofys' scream. (I prefer the Goofy one, btw)

Damn interesting post, though. You learn something new every day.
Thanks for sharing, Double D.

Yeah, the use of Wilhelm in Star Wars is classic.

On my work computer, I think I have a video compilation of all different movies utilizing the Wilhelm scream. I'll see if I can find it - PM me if you have a bit of space where I can put it up for download.
