Intertitles, are often used as a way of telling the story
rather than a voice over, personally I find intertitles to be more effective
for a horror movie as they are more eerie and create more suspense than perhaps
a voiceover would. Intertitles are used in many horror trailers to narrate the
story. This is seen in the movie Jessabelle:
I believe the use of intertitles has been extremely
effective in our production we decided to use ‘what would you do’ ‘if your
childhood nightmare’ ‘came to life?’ we were very selective about the words we
chose as we didn’t want them to be too telling but enough to intrigue the
audience. Ending on the words came to life I believe is extremely powerful as
it almost involves the audience by asking them a rhetorical question they are
left to ponder what if, which creates a sense of involvement for them.
