"The Charge at Feather River" is a 1953 Western film directed by Gordon Douglas.

The movie is most notable for originating the name of the "Wilhelm scream", a sound effect used in the "Star Wars" series, as well as countless other movies. Sound designer Ben Burtt named the sound after "Pvt. Wilhelm", a minor character in the film who emits the famous scream after being shot by an arrow (although the recording actually originated in the film "Distant Drums" in 1951). The film was released in 2-D and in 3-D.
