Horror poster research

-          We realised the concept we initially planned for our magazine cover was a viable idea for the poster as research shows us that horror film posters often feature the villain. 

S Some conventions of horror posters

• One main image 
• The image is often purposefully mysterious or horrifically direct
• The image tends to be unusual this grips your attention
• Fine print giving information on the films production companies and more
• They often feature an ominous tagline which gives the viewer some insight into the film
• Sometimes the poster's font is unique and its title and colours reflect the film itself
