Indoor chainsaw alternatives?

[Matt Marich]

John at Spookyprops is a real class act. He truly knows his product and he backs his product.
I have approached this situation with indoor chainsaw room before, and this is what I would suggest:

Use the on board sound, but mix your own track, with screams, and pump it through a surround system. Back it with a loww frequency rumble, and let it vibrate the room.
Pump a bit of smoke, puffs to give the feel of exhuast. Add FOG SCents from froggy's to it give it a smell of gas fumes burning. I like the BBQ or Gun Powder scents best. Yep, I think these work better.
I have used fast dissapating fluids, it shouldn't be smokey.
I also want to experiment with shock skins from Oak Island/Onadira. That will keep the the kiddies from seeking solace on the walls!
If you can afford it, elevate floor with Buttkicker dampers and let the audio shake and vibrate the room. They don't call em Buttkickers for nothing.Call Stan at Digital Sound and Light, he can engineer this for you and supply equipment.
An excellent Audio Engineer is Adam From Poison Props, he's an Ememy winner. A true engineer knows the frequency responses to activate the human response!
Lastly, the most important for me is to set the scene with one of Kip's Video effects called Chainsaw. It shows a poor soul getting sawed up real good and the live action actor with chainsaw comes out and the chase begins. Earlier an actual fake chainsaw blade pops out of the wall to startle people.

Yeh, I know its an expensive wish list, but Chainsaws are king, until people are scared shitless by Sonic Care toothbrushes.

8 years ago at TW, I saw a 6' 6'" guy with a shirt, it read:

Chainsaw- $ 199.00
Leather Mask- $ 39.99
Chasing Teenage Girls all over Ohio, PRICELESS!!

I have .. I think 3 left. They worked for the scare. We had a bunch of chainsaw Elvis and you can see in the photo that this one is covered in electric tape because a sub actor smashed it against the wall... still ran.. and looks good enough in low light.
