Closest I’ve seen to this being done was the movie Black Hawk Down. Meanwhile can you imagine everyone screaming at each other in the John Wick films? Other movies like Aliens would have been a whole different level of horrifying as the sound fades away until its just the sound of the actor’s muffled heart beat and their cluelessness that the xenomorph is crawling up behind them.
Eeeeeeeeee is the closest onomatopoeia, I think. It’s reminiscent of the microphone -speaker feedback sound for me.
Worse than the raw ringing in my ears is how hard it is to distinguish speech when there’s background noise. Even simple things like having the faucet running makes it so I need to have my wife repeat herself a lot :(
