    I did not see this movie. But it sounds like a kind of graffity effects.
    I just did a little experimenting on this. I combined the “animate paint” effect (not sure, if this is its english name) with some stuff that aharon did in his latest tutorial:
    https://www.creativecow.net/articles/rabinowitz_aharon/horror_text2/index.html

    had to dublicate the liquify effects, because of the timing of the graffity-spraying.

    With some time of work, this looks quite good.

    Do you mean the part, before the site is loading?

    First thing, you need a texture.
    Then, you use “animate paint” (or whatever its called), not to write a text, but to animate a luma mask.
    Then take some time to apply liquify, as it is shown in the tutorial by aharon, that could work out.

    Ah, I see. Looks pretty much like what we already suggested – using the Liquify effect would definitely do the trick to create the illusion of the paint dripping. The spray strokes themselves could be created using Write-on or Stroke, treated with Roughen Edges and some mild blur and noise.
