Film posters I like for this genre

Photobucket

I really like the simplicity yet mysteriousness of this poster. The image acts like a spot light into something and it is unclear what is happening yet the audience wants to know more. There is a red splat print on the film title connoting its genre and adding subtle colour into the image. The slogan is in small print at the top left hand corner reading something very interesting that doesn't seem to link to the picture showing that there may be levels of depth to this film.
There is a conventional involvement list at the bottom of the poster in white, fitting with the rest of the colour scheme. I really like its simplicity yet effectiveness.

This one differs from the previous, yet just as interesting. It uses a figure from the film taking up 3/4 of the picture with someone hostage. Having an image like this allows the viewer to ask questions based on this. There is also interesting font used for the title creating the feel of a horror genre. Having quotes on the left hand side helps sell the film and gives people an idea of what others think of it that may sway there decision to watch.
