Firstly with characters we hear the voice over of a man who we obviously assume to be a main character who is telling us the story of how a woman found her mother dead. We don't actually see the man's face until the end of the opening which keeps the viewer intrigued and wanting to find out who the character is. The sound used in the opening is contrapuntal as the lyrics of the song say 'tell me something good', when the actual action in the scene isn't 'good'. The colour used in the opening is mostly quite dark and dull which matches the mood which is about death. Even the blood that you would expect to be quite bright is dull and congealed on the floor.
The credits are shown throughout the opening on the images so we can read the credits without it being boring (on a plain background).
