The opening sequence to the film Se7en contains many disturbing images that create a dark setting for this film. Because of the opening sequence we can tell that this film is going to be disturbing and perhaps shocking. The opening sequence is very good at catching the audiences attention and making them want to watch the film to see what is going to happen. The opening sequence is so well done that even the book that appears throughout seems quite scary and foreboding.
