A
reasonably
good length

keeps it

It is neat,

easy to

It gives the
sense of a
cynical

which stands
out to its
contrasting

It shows
formality and

which
emphasises
the film being
based on true

Perhaps to catch
the attention of
audiences from
all angles and it
intrigues
audiences more
than rather
seeing the text in
the same place
over and over
again.

Directed by
In this title sequence the director appears twice (first credit and the 19th credit) It sets a
somewhat reminder to audiences of the director. Neither one lose any significance ,but
in fact gains significance. This director is well known in making horror movies such as
Saw and audiences who are familiar with the genre of Horror will perhaps know who he
is. It may indicate that the director being shown twice in the beginning and towards the
end prepares audiences to the well known director and the work he has created.
10. Title of Film (20)
Time:1:56
Title
The title appears at the end of the title sequence which builds up a climax of tension
amongst audiences. The black and white throughout creates a dark atmosphere to which
alludes to the film being a horror as black is a colour which alludes to death. The title is
isolated in the middle of the frame which supports the isolation of the house portrayed
behind it which may emphasise its significance.
