 What titles are displayed during the opening sequence? The titles displayed are the films director, writer, producers, executive producers, main actor names, director of photography, production designer, editor, music maker, creature designer and supervisor, costume designer, casting person, film name, film studio name, name of the studio collaborating, the film owners name, the movies presenter What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?

Script - FT

 Location of scene: Woods/Main Area     Daniel: I can't believe you guys made me come. You know I don't like anything resembling horror.     Mario: Don't be such a crybaby, it's just trees and animals.
