Image Example for the Sound.
This's a Skywalker Sound sound effect cluster/combo, which includes the sound of fire blazing and hissing, a tiger roaring, and SKYWALKER LASER BLAST SOUND (which contains a -12 pitch version of Sound Ideas, RICOCHET - CARTOON RICCO 03 combined with a droning hum) if one listens closely. It debuted in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) (in a higher pitch). This sound effect can be found on the Sony Pictures Sound Effects Library Volumes 6-10 (including edits in various pitches). However, it is not typically used as a stock sound effect.
