Believe it or, I played that sound from my PC audio system I few moments ago, and some kids outside laughed their asses off...

It's that bad.

Has Lucas heard of the Redead from Zelda? THERE'S a sound that'll make you shit yourself (or maybe it's that they suddenly lunge at and rape you - I can't remember which).

Oh god.  I've been playing Ocarina of Time again* and those things freak me the hell out as much as they ever did.  That sound, dear lord that horrible horrible sound . . . the low groaning when they're just standing there, then that piercing screech when they spot you, and then the necromancy rape if you can't get away . . .

It's one of the most terrifying things ever, except somehow it is simultaneously awesome, just because it's so freaky!  ;)

 

*I'm playing the uncensored original version with the real Fire Temple music, the Islamic chanting which was unfortunately cut and replaced in later re-issues.

I thought I was the only one who had a problem with the re-deads. Those things scared the crap out of me back in the day.

I still have my uncensored copy of OOT and I will hold onto it until death.

Re-deads aside, these wampas in Shadows of the Empire kept me from beating the game for 10 years, because I was chicken.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Oh yeah, I remember the "sand wampas."  Finally beating that game was a real accomplishment back in the day.
