This is an opening sequence from the film 'Two Eyes Staring' (Zwart Water). This is a dutch horror film which I have never seen before, however I really like the opening sequence and I feel it relates to the previous idea in 'Se7en' where we are unable to see the full picture as the images are slightly blurred and zoomed in. The fact that we can only see the opening sequence through certain shapes makes it appear more interesting and restricts our view. I like the old fashioned feel to it and the variety of shots used. Although it is a horror, it challenges the stereotypical opening sequence of a horror and appears more subtle and calming whilst still having an eerie feel.
