The credits are in gold the do not really stand out from anything, the blend with the sand and the gold at the beginning. the credits are plain but however they do stand out from the map. The is a lot of Ariel shot to show the buildings and sea. at the end of its fades to black and then the name of the director and who it was written by came up in gold, this shows to the audience that they are the most important people out of every name shown. They wanted the audience just to focus on them names unlike all the other ones that were shown whilst a lot was going on in the background.

A few different shots were used such as long shot, close up, mid shot. it starts with the girl ansewering the phone and having a casual conversation with a random person, but what she doesnt no is that he is about to kill her, he starts to threaten her so she puts the phone down. kids nock on her door in costumes because its halloween but instead of her giving the sweets she hits them with a baseball bat, this shows the comedy side of the film. outside is very dark and grey with fog this is normaly a set for a horror film. Even when the killer is chasing her she runs through the spriklers posing in her bra and nickers. The ladies mum and dad payed no attention to the fact they just hit something, which was their daughter.
