This film poster is very spooky. The tagline 'fear moves in' creates unease as you are lead to question where the fear comes from. The use of someone outside a glass window, looking in is very simple but the fact you cannot see the face and it is blacked out, leads you to believe that the face is hidden for a reason. The picture along with the tagline is also quite intrusive as it looks as if the figure is trying to break into the house.
The silhouetted image is a good idea for our film poster as it leads to wondering as to who the silhouette is and makes you worry about why they want to get into the house. The font is simple in white, but the way it isn't all on one line, but instead up and down makes it seem ghostly, and as if there is a presence there watching you. The waycertain letters drag down on the page is like blood dripping from a body, which reminds you that this poster is advertising a horror film.
We are going to try to reflect these colours in our own poster in the hope that people looking at it will be instantly frightened. Blacks, greys and blues are very common in horror films and create an empty, eerie feel, which is something we are aiming for. When making our film poster, this may be a good idea to use as the identity is still concealed which is something that is vital in our film. The silhouetted image is frightening and creates unease as you cannot see any facial features so no connection can be made to the person, which almost dehuminises them. The colours are also very dark and dull which is a convention of horror films, and the slight blue to the image makes it seem misty and foggy.
