In our opening our character is presented both stereotypically and non-stereotypically.  Stereotypically the big black male is the killer which I felt we put a twist on that because of the clothing. Normally in thrillers the killer is dressed in all black,baggy hooded clothes but in ours there is a strong twist and the killer is dressed in all white which makes him seem innocent as the colour white connotes purity and happiness. Linking back to stereotyping in films such as 'XXX' Ice Cube a 'big black gangsta' is a killer working against the police. I do not think there is any other film like ours as I've watched watched so many thrillers and none have the all white wardrobe although i have seen a all white bathroom in 'Psycho' which is were we got our initial idea from but we wanted to carry on that white effect that was why the character was dressed in all white.
