LoTR - Nazgul Scream (Original from MOVIE)

[binarynightmare]

That's a goddman freaky sound. I love it.

[kbs1212]

A guy told me today that the scream was made by twirling a metal cheese grater in circles then heightening the pitch.

[sephiroth1386]

Why the hell was this recommended to me?

[effikoula]

Provided the base sound that the Nazgul scream was created from. She was sick at the time, and to provide additional motivation one of the sound techs told her to "scream like peter just bought the rights to the Silmarillion" (the Silmarillion being another Tolkien story, covering the entire history of middle earth back to its creation and beyond).

[effikoula]

@effikoula Fran Walsh Peter Jackson's wife

[thatwhichisgiven]

There's no way this was made with plastic cups... In fact, I'm almost sure that I saw something in the behind the scenes about Fran Walsh doing the screams herself (which is awesome) but paper cups? Without visual proof, I refuse to believe it.

[fromdaghettowithlove]

Cracked are the Gods of the Internet, seriously.

[krakhaid]

It's not plastic cups, it's a modified version of Fran Walsh screaming with a bad throat infection. Cracked would know this if they actually bothered to do research instead of just talking out of their ass.

[Sneezlebob]

@krakhaid Actually it was plastic cups, go read the article

[beautyineverythingxx]

@krakhaid no, it was plastic cups. you do know that cracked uses citations, right?

[CorriTimigan]

@beautyineverythingxx Go watch the appendices that come with the Extended Edition DVD's. Peter Jackson himself says that it's Fran AND you hear an unaltered version of the scream.

When it comes between a vaguely worded excerpt from an interview and Peter Jackson coupled with the actual scream I'm going to go with the latter.

[CorriTimigan]

@krakhaid Thank you! I was worried I was the only one who actually knew this!

[ZoomZip]

how does 2 cups sound liek this

[Vheeri]

For a second there I thought it was my old Spanish teacher

[VIOLATER9000]

It's amazing what two plastic cups can do.

[ToiletBomberAlpha]

Tard, get your aspect ratios correct before uploading. Lazy.

[doctormasterdevil]

this woulda CRACKED your disposible cups!

[mattthecat81]

@doctormasterdevil sounds like the nazgul...

*puts on sunglasses*

have Cracked their cups

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

[Casandraelf]

apparently they made this sound by scraping plastic cups together...i heard it and went 'how the FUCK did they get that sound by scraping plastic cups together?! it sounds like a bird's screech'

[Daioblis]

@Khaled1Rules Forced?

[SAlpsu]

These noises were made by Peter Jackson's wife, Fran Walsh, and were "largely unaltered"

[ball1nbynature]

must have been some orgasm

[mattgieslerrocks]

How did the sound mixer for that movie create a scream like that?

[KONTROLLEN348]

In english "THERE YOU ARE!"

[MagmarFire]

ZOINKS! IT'S A REDEAD! D8

Oh, wait, wrong scream.

[DarkMasta95]

sounds like my mom calling

[kattekind1]

cool i can use this for my custom oblivion nazgul npc =)

[MrGuitar0492]

this is me phones song

[Joshherparody]

Woohooo that would scare me lol awesome

[Rawr5649]

Sounds like Sarah Palin

[paterbrat]

Yeah, it's scary to some people, but this sound will always remind me of the way I used to play the clarinet.

[TheAgent181]

Chuck norris when he yawns

[XxMixieGirlxX]

Reminds me of my classmates. :D

[werebunny131]

Fun fact: that wasn't fake. That is Peter Jackson's WIFE. Pitched up, of course...a little...

[Rawr5649]

@werebunny131 it's a donkey, it's right in the special edition CD

[selearemus]

not loud enough!

[VladimirVLD]

@selearemus Stop listening to it 200 times a day and try again tomorrow? :P

[MrTerrorkiller]

it's fun to play this in the middle of the night on like an ipod in a group of people who are scared. like in a cemmetary.

[SwedishNatureFan]

THANKYOU!!!

[Jizzo92]

yup, just pooped myself

[thumper3662]

great upload! :D

[VladimirVLD]

@thumper3662 thx :)))

[stryeker]

type minas morgul into youtube and you can find a better scream..

[VladimirVLD]

@stryeker true, but this video is "scream dedicated", trololololol.

[guilhermerdgs11]

Dat fear scream!

If i hear this in anytime, i would run to my bed and hide myself under it...

[Kartoonkid95]

Which LOTR movie is this. Fellowship, Towers, or Return?

[codafett]

@Kartoonkid95 Fellowship

[LoveSenseDimension]

Sweet; just figured out my Halloween costume for this year. All I need is a black horse o.O.

[Anka1453]

not worse than an angry girl-friend

[12345678909269]

i wish i could scream like that

[jigsawsviapprentice]

I think they altered a pigs squeel to make that sound.

[Sparfregundo]

When I went to see the Two Towers in the big screen, in that part where a nazgûl screams as Frodo talks with Sméagol, I had to cover my ears.

[Alphablazer21]

I'm so using this along with my nazgul costume this halloween!

[badboy12380]

the nazgul sounded like a screaming girl!!

[StationaryHawk]

@badboy12380 I don't want to know what kind of girl you're talking about.

But I never want to meet her.

[suresure88]

@badboy12380 mentioned in one of the behind-the-scene videos, the screams were made by one of their female staff

[badboy12380]

@suresure88 dang thats one staff member

[wsd101]

Sounded like a Nazgul giving Birth.

[adyboy76]

imagine being shout at by peter jackson's wife..

[adyboy76]

i love it that in the movie everytime the nazgul screams everyone closes their ears as if its bleeding their brains out..especially the part where frodo and sam hiding behind the rocks when they saw sauron's armies marching out from minas morgul..the shriek was deafening and frodo was holding his chest in pain from the injury he got at weathertop..ahh the details they did in the movie is juz astonishing..

[amel82light]

Nazgul vs Mariah Carey

[darkwartexx]

What worries me most is that the scream was recorded from script writer Fran Walsh, and unknown quantities of editing were used to create this.

[ProjectBarcodeError]

better than grindcore screams.

[selearemus]

sound is too low and you can here it is from distance

[trebuchet21]

the Nazgul scream is the sound of a red deer in the rutting season (when deers wants to make love, simply said). then is it modified

[aplayaz2000]

my names eddy wuts up guys

[mikese93]

imagine your just sitting in a lodge in the country, in the middle of the night at like three in the morning. turn off the monitor and lights and leave the mouse over the play button...and click. that's some scary shit.

[aniquilatorbloody]

Check out my version of this scream! attached as a response.

thanks.

[dudkun]

I screech just like nazguls....why...I think my dad was a nazgul :O!

[08chazman08]

i swear if i heard that at night i would shit my pants

[HOBO61993]

I love this but I mean try listening to it at night I full volume,it's pretty scary

[trexattack]

man i would be shitting my pants if i heard this in the middle of the night

[j0ofez]

I can't believe that is Peter Jackson's wife screaming. That's what he must get whenever she's pissed off at him!

[keyboardfriend]

Its an eagle or something like that, and the sound has been made longer and modified.

[Bpet18]

black metal

[ThePowerMetalManiac]

lol. TRU KVLT Ringwraith scream!

[hoefty]

haha i can actually do that, breath in and scream, hurts your throat tho!

[mallyska]

when i hiccup it sounds like the nazgul scream, its quite cool though because people get freaked out :|

[Davedog221]

That sound was made by a woman on set who had a hoarse voice. Then the audio technicians tweaked her voice and make it into the blood-curdling sound we know today.

[dominicanboy12]

shit thats how they scream? dont get me wrong i think its kick ass being a ringwraith

[VladimirVLD]

of course it does ;) There is no shame in that.

[dominicanboy12]

jus imagine walking in the woods and all of a sudden you hear this scream...id shit myself

[attomal]

@dominicanboy12 You would be hearing me MUHAHAHAHA

[ExGMeDiiA]

@dominicanboy12 you know it's jacksons wife that screams?

[colotron]

I can do the Nazgul scream almost perfectly but i cant get it to drift off at the end like that

[lewib191]

dont lie kev lol

but yea u make everyone poop in there pants lol

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

lolololooooool

[Anonymous738]

Mmm, if this was 10 times sharper, what would happen to the audience in the cinema?

[VladimirVLD]

they would most certainly become deaf!

[Anonymous738]

Yeah.......... and this would become one of the most dangerous movies of all times lol.

[obiwannotanikan]

Haha. Actually they had to tone it down because they made it really intense at first and it hurt so much that it was really uncomfortable. Imagine that at the theatre!

[Anonymous738]

Do you know if there is somewhere you can download the scream, I want it so I can higher the pitch and see what it's like, lol.

[VladimirVLD]

Just download the video with the YouTube downloader and cut out the sound with Movie Maker.

[Anonymous738]

Thanks

[obiwannotanikan]

No, unfortunately. Not that I know of. I really wanna see what it's like too, though.

[oshronosaurus]

@Anonymous738 theyd shit bricks, thats what would happen

[Phelan666]

@Anonymous738 It would probably be beyond the average audible range.

[Moewenjunge]

favorit :D

[AustinEradication]

I was gonna do a electro/metal remix with THIS IS SPARTA followed by the nazgul scream ^^

[ChristianMasterChief]

Sweet man if I were a freakin Nazgul I would want to ride there dragons and scare the shit out of people Whoooooo!

[xOldHerolDx]

[tjmstudent]

[RobinApprentice]

[theangrysmurf12]

[badboy12380]
