Our Opening Idea

Our current idea for a thriller opening -

- Camera angle wide from far away - a body is lying in a dump/abandoned area

- Seems as if the person is dead

- The camera zooms into the body, it's not moving so you assume he's dead

- The camera zooms to a close-up of the man's face

- Instantly the man opens his eyes (WIDE)

- There is a sequence of very short flashbacks of him either torturing someone or someone torturing him

OR

a sequence of short flashbacks where you don't gain mcuh information of what's happening in the flashback, only that they have an effect on him (eg.he jumps back before each flashback)
