According to film editor Walter Murch, when Michael condemns his own soul in the first film by committing murder, his character was stoically silent before carrying out the act. Meanwhile, the sounds in the background were of the protracted metallic screams of the wheels of a nearby subway train. When Michael ultimately pays the price, the original edit had him screaming throughout the aftermath. It was then thought that, as with his original sin, he should be silent instead, with the audience only hearing one final scream. The muting of these screams added tremendously to the impact of the scene.
