The non diegetic sound anchors the images. The bass of the soundtrack increases dramatically as the Title of the film appears on screen. This helps to create immediate tension to the sequence due to the impression of something bad happening.

Montage editing allows the director to pack the opening sequence with numerous representations of suffering and horror to shock the audience and also prepares them for the gore included in the film.

The combination of cutting rates used with the montage builds tension to the sequence. The cutting rate varies at a fast cutting rate during the montage and a slow cutting rate when the titles are shown. This variation in cutting rate creates tension for the sequence by the panic of shots on screen.
