Poster-The crazies

This is an official poster from the film "The Crazies". I like this poster because it is simple but still effective and even though that the title of the film is smaller that normally I still think that it stands out because of the colour of the title as there is nothing else on the poster in the same colour which makes it stand out even more. Again this poster has a caption/slogan underneath the title that I really like and that I am going to use in my own poster as I think it catches the audiences eye and also makes the audience think a bit more. This poster has also used the picture for the background which makes it easier for the target audience to see because it is bigger and they can see the little details that are in the picture. In this picture you can see the the man is wearing nurse trousers and the corridor looks like he is in a hospital. This shows us that the might be a lot of action in the hospital and also the pitchfork that he is holding might be a main weapon in killing a lot of people for one reason or another. Also you can see the blood from the pitchfork on the floor, this means that he has obviously killed someone with the tool and it can be very dangerous as it is a killing weapon that is used in the film. From this picture it gives the audience a lot of information that they will be able to foresee what is going to happen in the movie. I don't think that this poster shows you that this is a horror/thriller if you don't look closely at the picture than I don't think that you can tell what the genre is because it isn't dark and mysterious like the other posters I have analysed.
