Randy Thom on creating the dragon roars in ‘How To Train Your Dragon 2’

Unleash pure audio carnage with OVERKILL – a brutally detailed 5.7 GB sound library featuring 3390 hyperreal gore sound effects across 607 files. Whether you’re designing subtle, skin-crawling tension or full-blown splatter mayhem, Overkill gives you the raw, visceral tools to cover the entire spectrum of gore – from nuanced realism to over-the-top brutality.

DESIGN KIT (360 Sounds – 60 Files)

A collection of brutally crafted, drag-and-drop sound effects, organized into game-ready actions and categories.

• Stab: Precise, piercing attacks with bladed weapons like knives, daggers, and swords.
• Hit: Brutal strikes using blades such as machetes, katanas, and sabres.
• Cut: Clean or messy slices delivered by weapons like katanas, knives, machetes, and sabres.
• Slam: Heavy, crushing blows with blunt weapons like warhammers, morning stars, flails, crowbars – and even axes used with brute force.
• Crush: Full-on head or body crushes – whatever happens when too much pressure turns flesh and bone into pulp.
• Explode: Full-on body explosions – when guts, bones, and blood violently erupt in every direction at once.

All of these categories are featured in both a realistic, organic style and an exaggerated, highly stylized, over-the-top version.

In addition the Design Kit features Projectile Impacts from Guns, Shotguns and Arrows.

BUILDING BLOCKS (384 Sounds – 64 Files)

The goal behind our Building Blocks is to provide pre-designed sound layers that streamline your workflow. We’ve created straightforward, easy-to-use categories that let you quickly build new sounds or enhance your own designs.

All following categories are available in both Wet and Dry:

• Impact: Ideal as punchy sweeteners for heavy weapon hits and brutal moments.
• Whoosh: Quick, clean lead-ins to enhance any kind of gore sound.
• Crack: Perfect for highlighting the snap of shattered bones and broken bodies.
• Tail: Drag and drop to add lingering, gruesome sustain to your gore effects.

CONSTRUCTION KIT (2653 Sounds – 483 Files)

For our Construction Kit, we wanted to give you the best of both worlds to meet (or should we say meat) all your needs. You’ll get cleaned raw recordings for full flexibility in your own processing, plus pre-processed and layered sounds to spark creativity, fuel inspiration, and give you everything you need for hyperrealistic gore design.

Our Construction Kit includes:

• Blood: Vile drips, juicy splatters, and bone-chilling squeezes.
• Gut: Rich with drops, impacts, squishes, and visceral movement.
• Flesh: Brutal impacts, rips, strains, and movements.
• Bone: Crisp breaks and sharp snaps.
• Texture: Hyperrealistic wet and dry constant textures.
• Weapon: Resonant metal slices, stabs, and hits, as well as whooshes for weapon hits and ricochets.
