Three Horror Movie Openings

SAW I






Saw I is a good example of a film opening sequence. The way in which it has been created is unique amongst other typical horror movie openings. It immediately catches the audiences' attention and has them sat on the edge of their seats, eager to know what's going to happen next- which is one of the many questions that will be flowing through their heads. Also it shows you straight off what to expect of the movie as a whole, you could say the opening sequence is a taster for the audience.




28 Days Later






28 Days Later is another good example of a film opening sequence. It starts off showing videos of  riots and worldwide panic, disaster and violence on many television screens in front of an animal in a labratory. This would interest the audience in wanting to know why this is happening and how it has relevance to the film as a whole.




SCRE4M




Scre4m is yet another good film opening sequence.  It is unique compared to most film openings as it starts off as a film within a film- basically, the characters of the actual film are watching a movie that mirrors what is going to happen to them. It also would trick the audience into thinking this is the actual characters in the film- that it is apart of the film. When realising that it is not, some would be confused but would want to continue watching the film to see  why this happened.
