How does the title sequence establish genre, character and narrative?

The title sequence establishes the genre because its in low key lighting which automatically gives the viewer a sense of fear. Also there is a lot of gore in it as it shows zombies eating other humans. Its shows immedietly that a town has be over taken by zombies and that there is only a few humans left and mainly zombies. From watching the title sequence, you can tell there will be alot of gore and you have an overall idea of whats going on.

How does the titile sequence attract an audiences interest?

 The camera shots attracts the audience as some are really close ups of the zombies eating flesh ofother people. Also the voice over is unusual because he is explaining how to survive against the zombies. It intrigues the viewer to find out more as there is a few humans left that need to protect themselves fom the zombies.

 I consider the target audience of the film to be a 15 as there is mainly just gore in it, other than that there isnt nothing else. There is no sexual content or things that could disturb the younger audience.
