The opening sequence of Dexter and our opening sequence have a lot in common. They both show a seemingly average looking man preparing for a normal day. They go through their morning routine which is shown through a series of close-ups accompanied by text which includes the cast. However, the title sequence doesn't reveal the whole truth. In our film, the man that appears average at first is revealed to be a stalker who is holding an innocent girl captive. In Dexter, the man is actually a serial killer and the normal morning routine disguises his sociopath like nature. Although, his morning routine is suggestive of something a little more sinister. There are many references to blood and violence, through how he is cut shaving and the harsh way the orange is sliced in half. In our opening sequence the text is red like Dexter, but the font is different.
