Two ways to do this:

set pictureFile to "Macintosh HD:path:to:file.tif"
tell application "QuickTime Player"
    activate
    open image sequence file pictureFile
end tell

OR

set pictureFile to "Macintosh HD:path:to:file.tif" as alias
tell application "QuickTime Player"
    activate
    open image sequence pictureFile
end tell

You can also specify frames per second:

open image sequence pictureFile frames per second 15

Cheers,
Jake
