The font style is generally created with a hand drawn and 'scratchy' effect. The transitions are particularly effective as the way they vibrate then disappear gives it an edgy effect that matches the genre. The time the text is there for is generally quite short and is always active. (Moving around). Which adds to the 'edgy' effect.
The sound is not really a track as such, more a collection of sinister noises which works well when taking the genre into account. There are also a lot of stabs of noises.
In this title sequence we see no character, but the fact that we only see sinister and deformed hands is worth commenting on as it makes the whole atmosphere more tense and mysterious.
The makers of the sequence have not given away many clues as to where it is set, or who is there, or what they are wearing etc, but the lighting that is used is predominantly chiaroscuro which makes the set more mysterious. And the small parts of the set that we do see, seem to be very sinister, almost like an abandoned hospital.
A lot of very tight close ups are used to create an enigma which makes us think a lot about many aspects of the editing and sequence in general.
