The opening sequence of "Kiss Me Deadly" throws the audience straight into action and has them on edge as it shows a women sprinting down the road and this gives the impression that she is being chased or is running away from someone or something also it cuts to a close up shot of her feet to show the audience that she has no shoes on and then cuts to a long shot to show that she is wearing a long coat in which suggests she has nothing underneath, this gives the impression that she has been assaulted or has done something and had to get rid of her belongs. Her feet show that their clean and also the rest of her body this could suggest that she has been inside as if she was outside her feet would be muddy/dirty. A car pulls up and the lady gets into it this makes the audience suggest she does not no this man but wants a lift to get away from what has happened, this could also make the audience feel anxious and nervous as she does not no who this man is and she may be getting herself more into trouble.
Some of the shots show images over and over again being a repeated shots for example when she is running towards the car and trying to get the mans attention this is repeated a couple of times over to show that she is very determined to get his attention and wants to get away from what has happened or what could happen. There is a mid shot when she is standing in the middle of the road this suggest the director of "Kiss Me Deadly" is trying to keep the audience on edge as it is dark at night and the car may swerve and hit her. This gives the impression to the audience that it is a thriller.
