Se7en (1995) Title Sequence

Seven is a psychological crime thriller based around two detectives searching for a serial killer, who's murders are based on te seven deadly sins. The title sequence of this thriller occurs a few minutes into the movie. Sinister, erratic music plays over a sequence of images alternating with White, scrawled handwriting on a black background. The images and clips are extreme close ups of books, hands, needles and disturbing pictures of dead bodies and torture contraptions. These images lead the audience to expect the rest of the film to feature murder, violence, death and the distorted appearance and editing of the sequence could lead to thoughts of mental illnesses.
