Overall I feel this was a very good thriller opening as it was very enigmatic, and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. I rate this 9/10.

They use close up to show the emotion on the girls face just before she is about to be killed.

Flashbacks are a common convention in thriller films in this opening the flashbacks are in black and white which shows to the audience a clear difference in the times.

The use of non diagetic sounds builds up suspense and tension throughout the opening, this keeps the audience on the edge of their seats.

Also the use of a blonde female is very common as they are the stereotypical victims in many films therefore having her as the victim in this is another common convention.

The use of the chains as a prop is very effective as you see them both with and without the girl. Because you do not know what is in the bag when you see the chains with blood on them on the floor you finally understand that somebody has been killed.

The first establishing shot of the swan poses the film to be very peaceful yet the next shot of a person carrying what looks like a dead body is very juxtaposed to this. The main character remains unknown and they are wearing a hood, this adds enigma to the opening - another key thriller convention.
