The titles themselves are very distorted and faulty looking. Some of the names appear multiple times on the screen as if the screen is glitching which adds a good effect.  This makes the titles look like they were accidentally replicated which adds to the unknown feeling when beginning to watch this film.  The reverse block gives a good effect as the titles can clearly be seen on a black background in white writing.
