These nine images are taken from the opening sequence of Texas chainsaw massacre, and these images indicate that it is a horror film. Because the images are in black and white it makes the atmosphere look dark and dull.
In one of the images we see an evidence bag, and this straight away suggests that a crime has been committed, more than likely a murder.
The use of the dark corridor with a bit of light at the end is a convention of horror, and makes the viewer feel trapped and vulnerable, this also suggests the film as being a horror.
The picture of the house at a distance with no surroundings also makes the viewer feel scared as there is no atmosphere around it and it looks very deserted, which is a convention of horror.
The police tape also suggests danger, and it is also in negative which makes it stand out more and it indicates what has happened or what is about to happen.
All of these images give clues to the film being a horror and what has happened, although it still leaves the audience scared about what is going to happen next as this is typical of a horror film
