Ghost Ship

In the opening scene of Ghost Ship we hear the happy, smooth jazz playing as the camera pans around the ship in a birds eye camera angle, this sets a juxtaposition for the scenes just to come because although it portrays a relaxed and joyful occasion for 2 and half minutes the film itself is far from joyous because it is marketed as a horror film.

Music at 2:40 turns quite haunted to indicate the impending horrors that are about to massacre the passengers, the music coupled with the change in lighting to high key to low key represents the somber tone the movie is about to make with the camera focusing on the loose wire that is going to become a terrifying murder weapon
