Horror movie posters
Image represents 
who’s in charge 
Sunset colour similar to 
fire 
White writing to 
separate the red 
writing 
Red writing
The movie poster of the horror movie A 
Nightmare on Elm Street suggests already what 
horror genre it will be. 
‘A nightmare on Elm street’ is in red font. This 
already suggests the idea of danger and murder. 
The colour of blood is red. 
The caption on top of the movie title is in white 
which says ‘He knows where you sleep.’ The 
idea that this is not in red but in white takes the 
attention away from the movie title. It stands 
out from going to white to red. So the audience 
are aware that the villain is capable of a lot. 
The colour used in this poster are red, black, 
orange, yellow. These colour almost represent 
fire although it seems it could also suggest 
sunset, The idea that as every day comes it 
becomes worse. 
The image used on the poster suggests who’s in 
charge. It shows the villain who also reminds 
the audience of a typical farmer with a cowboy 
hat but the face cannot be seen. A young 
woman is in front unware of who is behind. This 
shows in the movie who has power and what is 
likely to happen.
Haunted house 
Creepy hands 
Fire 
Light from the 
haunted house 
Necklace must be 
sacred
In this poster of the horror movie Drag me to 
Hell a lot of colours associated with danger are 
used. In the poster the woman is screaming as 
well as it showing she is burning in fire, which 
suggests she may be the innocent one in the 
movie and is in desperate need of help. 
As well as the colour suggesting danger , 
creepy hands are against the woman and 
shows the hand is trying to get the necklace 
she is wearing. This could suggest the necklace 
may be spiritually sacred. 
The image at the back of the woman is a dull, 
dark, haunted house. However there is light 
coming from one side of the house which 
suggests to the audience the haunted house 
may help the woman who is in trouble.
