Horror Magazine Front cover

Like the film poster this magazine had many influences from independant film magazines to major ones. 

 

The main thing I like about our poster is that I believe we stuck strongly to the genre by the use of blood and also the background image on the magazine. I belive that we did well by trying to appeal to a youthful target audience. I feel that the iconograpgy also makes a strong reference to the horror genre because it shows classical elements e.g. the use of the red blood.  This poster challenges the classical horror conventions by the text of the film title used and also with the type of language used to communicate with the audience.
