Hollow Man (2000)

Hollow Man
You don't make history by following the rules, you make it by seizing the moment.

Borrowing from the distinctive look of microscopy and photomicrography, the Hollow Man titles rely on a simple premise and clean execution to convey their message. The full sequence takes place in a petri dish of sorts, with the title cards arranging themselves from an alphabet soup of microbe-like letters swimming amid other microscopic elements.

Directed by William Lebeda at Picture Mill, it's an apt introduction to a film about human transformation on the molecular level.
