Final Film Poster

From my research of the Horror film posters, i have found out that it isn't complicated. Most of the time it contains one focal picture, sometimes of a face showing horror, or a symbol item which my be a reference to the film. I used the black back ground as it is the usual form that horror posters tend to use, symbolic to the idea of death, immediately telling the audience the mood and atmosphere of the film, as well as what is likely to happen. I also used a brush which creates a blood splatter over the face, only showing a section, i used this brush as the blood splatter will symbolise the blood and death within the film. I like the tag line as most films seem to have a short whitting line, i think its effective as it gives the feel that you are never alone. Also the picture itself is effective as her eyes are looking towards the side with the most black on the poster, this could suggest that she is afraid and she is looking at what is coming after her and we can not see it, or it could suggest that she is looking at death and may come to close contact with it. The hint of the red smoke seems effective as most posters tend to have either a lot of red or just a little hint of it, this signifies the blood and death within the film, also smoke can show transformation so this can be a little hint of what is going to happen.
