Se7en opening sequence

This opening shows several shots repeatedly to connote that this is a routine for the killer, and also connotes his obsessive qualities. His methodic approach is also respesented whenimages an texts are censored and specific words are cut out of books. The killers hands are shown, focussing on his dirty and scruffy fingers which alo suggests that the killer is not trained and is brutal in the way that he kills his victims. The titles as well as the music connote a distorted atmosphere which could refer to the killer's state of mind. Nails and blades are shown to once again connote torture, whislt a Bible is also in the scene to suggest the murders are conncted to Christian teachings. Dissolves are used to connote the passag of time; this is repeated by the killer over a long period of time
