Definitely the original Marv scream with the spider. I still laugh at that as hard now as I did when I was a kid.

I’m going to be honest, I don’t even care much about the first 2/3rds on those movies, but the last third of them is utter brilliance in filmmaking.

Tarantula
Everyone hates spiders and that pitch is impressive for any man to hit...the sound of pure utter fear.

They are all hilarious for different reasons. The tarantula scream is just amazing all around, the pigeon scream is equally hilarious because the way he's screaming you'd think he was being murdered by those damn birds
, and the electrocution scream is great because of how it keeps getting more and more intense until that skeleton scream has you dying laughing.
Overall, tarantula wins, but they are all great.

Tarantula hands down. Partly because I think there’s a lot of authenticity to it. I think Daniel Stern was truly scared shirtless.

I read that the scream was dubbed in during editing because they didn't want to scare the spider.
ETA: after looking into it, Daniel Stern says that it is 100% authentic so the sources saying that it wasn't are incorrect.

Tarantula scream is legendary. Easy #1.
I'd throw the nail in the foot scream from 1 in there too. It doesn't crescendo, you barely even see the preparatory inhale--it just starts out of nowhere.
Shock scream scared the shite out of me as a kid. HA2 was the first movie I saw in theaters, I must've been 6 or so, and seeing a dude literally skeletonized in front of me while dozens of people around me are laughing their asses off was traumatizing. shite was attempted murder for Christ's sake

Skeleton scream for me, but I've watched Home Alone 2 a lot more than Home Alone.

Same, I’ve watched home alone 2 way more and to this day, like last night, I cry laughing at that scene.
