Again, each title graphic screen is very similar so they all relate. They all have very dark backgrounds and, apart from the two idents, they all have a blurry and green element in them. Giving a feeling of there being something lurking in the darkness. Im the actually title screen which says 'the strangers' on it, it has the most powerful imagery as it is the one with the most distinct image in it which is a masked figure. The image is still blurry, making it slightly abstract. This makes it not too distracting from the title. It is fitting that the most powerful and scary image is paired with the title to create the biggest impact.
This trailer has many graphic screens. It includes; two idents, 'INSPIRED BY TRUE EVENTS' screen (this is conventional in horror films), then there are three screens which build tension and add a narrative to the trailer. It also talks about the audience through talking first person but encaging the viewer as it says 'We always'... and 'We're wrong'. This sequence builds up tension and fear before the screen with the actual title. This builds it up to give the title a more dramatic effect. After the title screen is a screen with the two lead actors names. The last screen says 'coming soon' which is a trailer convention. It also has the film's website address. It also has the two idents very small and in black and white at the bottom.
