Opening Sequence research: Gone Girl (Sound)

This is a very short clip from the opening sequence of gone girl. It is very basic by just featuring a close up of the main character and a voiceover. The man in the voiceovers dialogue is very gruesome and violent: "I picture cracking her lovely skull" "unspooling her brain" this is an example of contrapuntal sound as the speakers voice is very calm and tranquil which is completely opposite to what he is saying.
Personally, I like the idea of a basic opening sequence as it sort of frightens the audience as they expect jumps and scares in a horror film. As this is a psychological horror is definately portrays this through this small section of the opening sequence. That is what I want to achieve in my own opening sequence.
