Suggestions for the title of the movie

We had a lot of different suggestions for the title. Here are some of them.

Confined-this is also a really good title but we not if we are going to use it we could but we don't know.
Trapped-(i came up with this by the way)  this would be such a great title for our movie because it just connects with it all the only reason we are having doubts about using it because it seems a bit mainstream and typical of us to use such a title. 
Entrapped- this is also a good one to use but it is also a bit typical. 
Conceal but it sounded as if it was a make up movie we were doing so that was crossed out from our list.
Buried- we wanted to use this but then there have been a number of movies that have used this title so that messed it up for us a bit although we are still thinking about it.

We also tried other verbs such as 
Incarcerate- but this sounded more like you are in prison so it doesn't connect to our movie.
Freedom-we suggested this to make a contradiction to our movie because she is trapped and it would be hard for her to escape so this title could be used to mess with the viewers thinking she is going to be free when she's not.

In the end we decided to use R.I.P as our final title. It has a Gothic ring to it and it is short, catchy and precise. RIP has connotations of death/ graves and etc. But it could also mean a blessing or expression of hope that a deceased person is at peace. May the souls of the recently departed rest in peace. It will appeal to our target audience seeing as the word RIP seems somewhat interesting and a bit sinister.

To make our opening sequence even more interesting, we decided to do handwritten titles in calligraphy which would make our opening sequence even more mysterious.  
Below is an example:


Both of these handwritten titles have a Gothic feel to them. The writer(Maria) has been taking lessons on how to write calligraphy and it really has paid off because this will help make our sequence even more interesting.
