About the film opening:
  • white text on a black background showing text about psychotic dreams.
  • cuts to a woman entering what seems to be a prison or hospital, extreme long shot panning the location and her. 
  • cuts to inside the building where her and young Michael are talking, then after cuts to Halloween in white text on a black background and a woman screaming with police sirens
  • panning shot and an extreme long shot of the location and a woman walking at night through a town.
  • A woman walks down a road with the sound of whispers and a clock bell ringingabit of a dutch angle to show something isnt quite right.
  • she's holding a gun and a police car follows her, shes bleeding.
  • Quick pace editing and a variet of close ups and all different shots shows the patients pain and the seriousness of her injuries, set in a hospital ward.
  • close ups showing the extent of her injuries, with classical violin kind of music in the background. less panic.
  • Alot of quick pace editing to show different shots of different people, the editing makes it feel very chaotic.
  • close up of the mans mouth whilst talking about doing sexual things of dead girls. they then crash, showing lots of gore
  • no suggestion of a final girl, or a scream queen.
