What would you expect to see in a opening sequence of a film (generally)?

C: The title and staring actors should obviously appear at the some point, but most important feature is for it to be captivating. I'd  expect some music that sets the mood of the film and some opening shots that build tension  and interest, to introduce the plot and/or main characters.

S: Introduction to main characters. Brief insight into storyline, music to draw viewer in. Opening scene should build the audience's interest.

What would you expect to see specifically in a supernatural thriller opening sequence?

C: I would expect to dark lighting, possibly with hints of blue or red. Faces or areas should be in shadow and something pertaining to the genre should happen e.g a ghost/murder. There should probably be shots from the perspective of a supernatural creature. I would expect eerie music and maybe being set at night or in a mist.

S: I would expect quite dark colours and maybe lots of shadows. Also probably bad weather. An event should happen like a murder to fit the genre and plot. Events should be seen through supernatural creature's eyes. I would imagine lots of screaming or maybe panting from the creature.
