I'm sure it is largely a matter of personal preference.
If I was working for Microsoft and was given the job of developing the next generation screen of death, I'd probably go with a blazing red.

Red would be more appropriate for a screen of death. Maybe with a fading red H.A.L. eye in the middle of the screen, singing "Daisy" slower and slower...
AFAICT from having worked on it a few times, the modern black screen is almost always a problem in between the bootup and the initialization of the video drivers. As such it may or may not have any bearing on a kernel fault. As reported here, it will sometimes be a temporary problem where the machine is merely slow to boot.
@seatex That would be terrifying.

But, since I've been using Linux for 11 years and haven't actually seen the new black screen of death for Windows 10, I am certainly no authority on this.
