    I seem to remember that the end credits were pretty cool too- running sort of backwards.
    This was the first movie that the credits had me going- “Damn, that’s amazing” in quite a while- the whole Imaginary Forces reel was pretty impressive when I first saw it about 10 years ago.

  2. Alex says:

    This was done at Imaginary Forces and title giant Thomas Cobb worked on this as well.

    One of the best title sequences ever…

  4. L.G. Bayao says:

    This was a starting point for me. The grungy letters, the jumpcuts. The best.

  5. Nelson B says:

    Magnificent.

    Does anyone know what the significance of the “No Key” that when is played frame by frame appears numerous times in the Title sequence.

  7. jeff says:

    The dvd has a long video about the making of this sequence. worth the dissection, pun intended.

  8. Daniel says:

    Pity that Coil, who did the remix of Closer, isn’t credited in the movie.

    when i saw the film for the first time .. i wonder how can he think like that … i didn’t ever see something like this great title before .

    As a matter of fact, this was done by Kyle Cooper in 1995 while he was creative director at R/Greenberg Associates in LA. He founded Imaginary Forces a year later (1996). (Thomas Cobb did work on this as well, that’s correct).
