Our film opening develops and challenges several conventions of supernatural and psychological horror films. It follows conventions such as featuring a priest as the protagonist, similar to "Annabelle", and having a human female antagonist, a common theme in films like "The Ring" and "The Grudge". It also takes place in a rural setting like many horror stories. However, it challenges conventions by not including dialogue in the opening scene like some psychological horror films. Additionally, our opening is less violent than some others, containing no blood or mass killings seen in other horror film openings.
