Zombieland (2009)
In the
opening of Zombieland, the opening sequence hints at the comedy and horror
genre because it has guns and fire in the background then has a zombie eating a man
close up but then goes to a fat man running. In the next scene a guy gets eaten by a zombie on a toilet which is funny.
In the credits, the rules that the narrator and main
character uses to survive zombieland are shown in red and white, Also the names
of the people that were involved in the production of the film. Towards the end
of the opening sequence the title of the film is shown.
The colour
of the names and title were all in red to symbolise blood which is associated
with zombies and the rest of the opening sequence is full of quite dull colours
such as beige, brown, black, and dark red. In this frame, the editing to create
the breaking of the glass and the name of the movie ‘Zombieland’ matches with
the violence in the background.
The Audience in drawn in by the use of zombies which is what
teenagers are typically drawn to when they watch a horror movie. The title sequence
also creates a background for the movie itself as it shows what has happened to
the world around the narrator and main character of the film.
OK. You use your knowledge of the horror genre to make a few observations. You make some interesting points such as the visual code of shattering glass. Improve your written style by proofreading your work: avoid using too many 'ands' in one sentence.
