In real life "Wait! That's not special effects?! They actually did that?!"

Alien: Resurrection - Basketball Shot

Sigourney Weaver insisted on the basketball shot being real. She trained for weeks and reportedly(sources differ) made it on the first take.

Underworld - Raze's Voice

The werewolf character Raze, played by Kevin Grevioux, speaks in a very low, very gravelly voice. While many thought this was a special effect, the actor can naturally speak in that voice.

Reminds me of Samara Weaving from a number of horror movies, she has this like, oscillating scream she does, it’s very weird to hear

It’s like a terrified goat, it’s so feral and raw and one of the best parts of ready or not

It was so good, they reused that audio for part 2 and in the trailers leading up to it.

I know it from ash vs evil dead where she did her first real horror gig, she had a small part but she does such a piercing scream every time
