Ancillary Text Analysis 1. (Poster)



This  poster is advertising the psychological horror 'The Strangers'. This is a stereotypical film poster as it consists of one main image that contains the main characters of the film, as well as the film slogan, title and the names of the two main actors within it. The colours we see in the image are all very earth like colours, non of which stand out too much producing the dark and horror like feel to the image. The fact the all the characters are in the same shot suggest the idea of being trapped as well as the brick wall located behind the antagonists. The font used for the title of the film is quite an aggressive and striking font even though it is not necessarily bold or large.
