Starts with the twisted pictures wrapped in barb wire and a sharp knife comes down in between the two words.
Titles; a production, a film by, and after two minutes only has the name of the film then. as you can see there aren't a lot of titles and the font is very traditional dull as it is on a black background and they are very uneven which my indicate that you are waking up into the film, and the flash on and off as this relates back to the film as the camera is focused on a light switching on and off.
At the start of this film it is a POV shot which my mean that they are not sure where they are.

Certificate 15 - All classification decisions are based on the BBFC’s published and regularly updated Guidelines. The Guidelines are the product of extensive public consultation, research and the accumulated experience of the BBFC over many years. They reflect current views on film, DVD and video game regulation.
In the most recent consultation over 8700 members of the public were asked for their views on classification – including consideration of issues such as language, discrimination, violence, sex and drugs in films, DVDs and video games, parental concerns about younger viewers and recent BBFC decisions. The Guidelines also take into account the various UK laws which the BBFC must consider and apply when making classification decisions.
