and also, the OFFICAL name of the sound effect is "Screams 3; Man, Gut-wrenching Scream And Fall Into Distance" and is available in the "Hollywood Edge Premiere Edition 1" sound effects library. I believe the sound effect's creator is Lon Bender.

Now do one with the scream they used every time someone fell off something in Star Wars and Indiana Jones and bunch of other movies from the 80s and I think 90s.

Also, although it's an obscure reference (no doubt earning a -1 to the right), a french rap song from Passi caller "Emeutes" has it at the 1:54 mark.

Phoojoeniam: I don't see a compilation of the Wilhelm scream. Just a bunch of sites that used it. There should be a compilation for it like this site showing the scene from each movie. It would be long.

Great collection! I first noticed the scream in Star Craft because they used it as a sound for the Terran Academy building. It was also used in "The Cutter", a Chuck Norris movie from 2005: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0nYjenjhy8

Sound effect scream. :) Used A LOT! Another sound I recall while seeing this is the "body fall down" sound. I think its included in a lot of games and movies. The latest time I heard it from was "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles"

I've never seen some of those movies, but the scream really doesn't seem to fit. Like the guy finding the dude in the bathroom. Looks overboard.
