Colour Schemes in Opening Scenes

It is clear to see straight away that the scene is dark & grey, this brings a eery element to the title sequence. Now we already know that  conventions of a horror film are dark ominous scenes, so straight away without the audience knowing what the genre is, they would be able to identify immediately what kind of genre the film is.
I chose a film opening that includes the major horror conventions, the sequence is predominantly silent yet the high pitched stringed instruments helps build tension for the viewers
