The Shout

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Shout is a 1978 film by Jerzy Skolimowski based on a short story by Robert Graves. It stars Alan Bates, Susannah York, and John Hurt. The North Devon coastline, specifically Saunton Sands and Braunton Burrows, was used for the bulk of the location shooting. It told the story of a man who had learned (from a witch doctor) to produce a "terror shout" as he called it, that would kill anyone who heard it unprotected.
