Sounds Dangerous.....?

[Miranda Danda]

I am having vague memories from when I was younger. I don't think "Sounds Dangerous" was the name of the show, but it was a sound effects show. Afterwards, you get hearded out into a room with lots of hands-on sound effects stuff. I remember there being computers that let you do the voice of the Wicked Queen and Snow White. Also, they had different tools that made really cool sound effects (gravel and shoes that make the sound of someone lurking through gravel, etc.). My favorite and most vivid memory of this area was the little sound booths that you could go in. You put on headphones (only about 2-4 people at a time) and the sound goes all the way around you. I think the premise was that you are at a barbershop and the guy cuts your hair. It really sounds like someone is cutting your hair because of the "3-D sound."
Does anyone know if this still exists and if it is still at MGM? I would love any info. I am leaving tomorrow morning for WDW and I HAVE to take my boyfriend to this. Please give me any info on it and what it is called, etc...! Thanks in advance!

I wonder if you are thinking of the Monster Sound Show?? Here's a website describing it: http://webhome.idirect.com/~glburke/mgm_mss.html

I was one of the audience members chosen to make the sounds for the movie. That's a fun memory for me.

There's more info. here too: http://allearsnet.com/tp/mgm/m_sounds.htm

First it was the Monster Sound Show, then One Saturday Morning sound show, and now Sounds Dangerous with Drew Carey.

Awe! Thanks, liznboys! That is definitely it! I miss the Monster Show!!!!! Is the Drew Carey one any good? I want to do it just to bring back memories! Thanks again!

Drew Carey is basically a sound effects movie, no audience participation at all. No, I don't think it is as good as Monster Sound, but it is still worth a look IF you have the time...don't make it a special "must do" thing.

Sounds dangerous is a big theater version of the booths you remember after the sounds show. The booths themselves are still there at the exit too. In the theater you will put on earphones just like the ones in the booth. I liked The Monster Sound Show and I like Sounds Dangerous but I'm in the minority on that one.

Sounds Dangerous is my least favorite attraction at WDW. I did like the Monster Sound Show, though. I think it starred Chevy Chase.

I too have fond memories of being an audience participant in the Monster Sound Show many moons ago (1992!)
