The Verhoeven Scream (or: Apropos of Nothing)

Being the perennial nerd that I am, I checked out the DVD of Starship Troopers from the library just to listen to Paul Verhoeven's director's commentary track on it.  (Verhoeven, if you don't know, is the director of such movies as Robocop, Basic Instinct, Total Recall and most recently Black Book.  I mean this in the best possible way-- he is the Stanley Kubrick of cinematic skeezy-ness.)

Anyway--  last night I was listening to the commentary track while watching the movie.  At one point, Verhoeven vocally demonstrates how he would be an on-set stand-in for the Arachnid enemies that terrorize the eponymous heroes, and the demo is both blood-curdling and hilarious.  Because I was impressed by it, I have decided to post this audio-commentary moment as a stand-alone podcast.

And yes, I know--  it is very similar to a famous cinematic scream.
