How does your poster stand out?
The light from the torch in the centre of a dark background catches the eye well
White title stands out well against black background
Faceless character adds mystery
Darkness of the poster suggests horror genre
5 star reviews draw the audience’s eye, and they will stop for a second to read the short review.
If the particular audience is familiar with us (the cast) then the names will catch their eye
Have you created a memorable image that connects to the film?
The background image could work well as a trademark picture for the film, as the figure looking towards the camera with torch is quite a stereotypical image for the horror genre.
The title font and colour is quite simple, and not too bold, as it fades from brightness down to darkness, as if the torch is shining on it. The minimalism of the text would work well with the memorable photo, as a trademark image for the film.
