Woman who screams with helpless terror in 1. Invasion of Body Snatchers remake and 2. Alien

Can’t be same woman. can it? Same face, same acting highlight. Looks like a cut and paste. Doppelgänger (spooky?..)?

ETA: this is more MPSIMS. And let me google it fodder. But there it is.

Are you maybe thinking of the Wilhelm Scream? Here’s a website where you can press a button and hear it to your heart’s content.

It’s a standard sound effect that has been used in loads and loads of films/TV/etc

So, there’s this thing they have now called The Internet Movie Database…

FTR, Veronica Cartwright was in both movies. Since the only other woman in Alien was Sigourney Weaver, I’m assuming that’s who you’re talking about.

She also fell down a flight of stairs in *The Witches of Eastwick. *

Even spookier, the hispanic Marine grunt in Aliens, the suburban foster mom in Terminator 2 and the wee Irish mum in Titanic all died in horrible ways. It’s enough to make a Jewish actress rethink her choice of career.

And all three of those films were directed by the same guy! What’s he got against Jews, anyway? Is he like the Adolf Hitler of film directors?

More importantly to my generation, she vomited cherry pits. Ewwwwww!!!
