They Re-Used the Same Scream in 80s Movies!

Colonel Shatner

Showing how lazy the production crew getting in the later Roger Moore and Dalton movies during the 1980s, when the franchise was in decline like Doctor Who, they reused the same distinctive scream used from Moonraker (1979) onwards as demonstrated in these videos:

Video 2

But re-using scream sound effects is common in Holywood, with the infamous Wilhelm and Howie screams. )

Rick Roberts

Good ear. Yes, they did re-use the same scream after Moonraker for Gobinda and Necros.

Sir Hillary Bray

And for the guy Mayday send tumbling out of the blimp in AVTAK. Four uses in all.

They should reuse that scream in Bond 23.

Really ? I find it delightfully unqiue.

Part of the scream is first heard back in OHMSS, when Draco's African henchman incinerates one of Blofeld's men with a flamethrower.

But you've gotta love the "BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

I am not too sure of that. I think it started with Moonraker.

Does anyone here know who actually made those screams? I've always noticed its re-use throughout the films.
Do you know how hard it is to make those noises?

Colonel Shatner

The best sound editing was for Necros' fall from the Soviet cargo plane, while Gobinda had the worst edited scream when slapped in the face, and you can even hear another cry underneath the 'BLEEEEEARRRRRRRGHH!!!'.

yes i think they use the same death scream in octopussy and tld. and why does gobinda hold onto his little sword, and necros hold onto daltons boot?......both are funny scenes.
