The Wilhelm Scream

Movie Buzz Every year around Halloween, there’s a new story on the classic Wilhelm scream sound effect. “I’ll just fill my pipe…Aiiiyeeeaa!” So began the career of one of the most-used sound effects in movie history. Since appearing in 1953’s The Charge At Feather River - Wilhelm gets an arrow through the leg after delivering his line - it’s been in nearly 200 movies and TV shows, including all the Star Wars and Indiana Jones films, and has long been something of an inside joke to sound editors.
