The font throughout this opening sequence is in sans serif and starts of in a red colour, which then changes to white when listing the actors. The red writing could resemble blood, as red had connotations of death and danger. The red writing appears fuzzy and messy, whilst jolting from side to side, and is almost difficult to read which mirrors or reflects the confusing and rattling style of the film, which is typical of a thriller. The red font is smaller than the white font and so doesn't jump of the screen as much, maybe because they want to draw attention to the actors. The font therefore gives and overall eerie and creepy atmosphere creating tension right from the get go.
