Biography

The MGM Roar is a sound effect from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The first sound of this sort was originally created by Mark A. Mangini while MGM was producing the film Poltergeist in 1982, and it was for a supernatural beast who is seen confronting a character in that film, aside from the clown. An alternative mix of the same sounds was then used on Leo, resulting in the creation of this sound effect. It was updated a few times in 1995 and 2008, and it continues to be used to this day. Before it was created, Leo originally had Tanner's roar used for him. In most media, it was used as a lion's roar, but these roars were actually recorded from tigers.
