Narrative Analysis Questions

In the opening to Halloween (the original) we see the main character (threat) Michael as a child, he see's his babysitter kissing a boy then dissapears upstairs with him then when Michael goes upstairs the babysitter is naked and he stabs her. Then his parents come home and see him with a knife. The camera then pans out which leads us to believe the film will then go to present tense (when michael is an adult). The fear is created when we see the babysitter being stabbed from a POV shot. It is created by using a restricted view (through the eyes of a mask) so we cant see everything that happens. This makes us intrigued but worried at the same time. It is quite dark lighting which adds to the fear. Also we dont see the threat untill the end, we only see the victim which adds to the mystery.
