For this research task, I looked on YouTube for stabbing scenes to research stabbing sound effects so that I could re create my own for our coursework.
The first video that I clicked on was from the TV series, 'Game Of Thrones'. In this scene, on of the characters gets stabbed multiple times giving the audience a gruesome image and sound. When the character gets stabbed, the audience can hear squelching and oozing sounds as a character stabs the other multiple times. This sounds realistic and gruesome for the audience.

The next clip that I found was from the film, 'Fertile Ground'. In this clip a female character stabs a male character. The sounds that the audience hears when the woman stabs the man repeatedly are almost like a shovel has been shoved into the ground. These sound effects are less 'bloody' than the previous clip.
'Fertile Ground' Clip
In the film 'The Babadook' a little boy stabs his mother. When the knife enters her stomach, it makes a thumping noise and there is not sound of flesh or blood being cut through. Although this may be a realistic sound effect, it does not portray the 'slasher' effect that we are looking for.
'The Babadook' Clip
In conclusion, I believe that the most realistic and gruesome effect is from the 'Game Of Thrones' clip. This is because you can hear flesh being sliced and you can also hear the sound of blood oozing out of the wound. This therefore makes the sound effect realistic and give it the 'slasher' effect.
