Characters;
One female is introduced at the beginning of the film. The film starts with one main character bathing. This opening prepares you for what’s going to happen. The opening begins with the woman sitting up in the bath suddenly as she gasps for breathe. Straight away the audience is hooked and wanting to find out why she is struggling to breathe. As she gets out of the bath and turns on the hair dryer, again there is a sudden and unexpected noise as the hair dryer sparks.
