Camera Work
- Mixture of long shots focusing on cityscape, contrasted with close-ups of character in car gives a sense that the character being portrayed is isolated from the rest of the city
- With the close up shots there is a lack of focus on anything but the main character furthering this sense of isolation from the rest of the city
Sound
- Soundtrack combined with the opening credits typeface place the film firmly in the 80s
- Lack of any dialogue
- Beat of the soundtrack creates a monotonous sense in the scene
Lighting
- heavy use of shadow obscuring the characters face creates a menacing aura around the character in addition to this the scorpion on his jacket is exposed in starck white lighting drawing attention to this image which is associated with fear and so creating a sense of fear around the character
- contrast between the hallway and bedroom furthers contrast between the world that the character inhabits and the rest of the world
