kiss me deadly is an excellent opening sequence that prompts many question but also leads to many assumptions from the audience.
it starts with a shot of a womens feet as shes running barefooted down a highway road breathing heavily. this leads the audience to assume that she must be in trouble, the quick cuts between the feet and the womens faces help communicate the sense of desperation
that shes feeling. her simple trench coat being her real piece of clothing helps give the feeling that shes someone whos trying to escape from somewhere which is reienforced by her reaction to a police blockade that we see later on in the opening sequence.
the music is also an important elemeant as it dosent start of and then gradually build as most thrillers do but opens on an immediate high giving instant tension to the scene. the way the titles roll across the screen is an unusual feature not commonly found in films. it could possibly be this way as they might have some reference later in the film.
