The unmistakable sound of racking a shell should send all but the most insane home intruders running for the nearest exit.
That's always the part in the movie where I laugh... the scary chi-chick sound of a pump action SG racking being used as a deterrent.
It's a bold move... if it works, the guy runs for the hills... if it doesn't, you've just given up your position, weapon at hand and the element of surprise.
Like they teach in self defence courses... you should never tip your hand... don't pull the hi-ya-kung-fu crap if you do know it, don't wave around a knife or collapsable baton if you have it... they should learn what you have/are capable of at the very moment when using it becomes unavoidable, and not before.
