This film poster for the 'Clock Tower' will instantly appeal to lovers of the thriller/horror genre due to the fact that the select choice of colors instantly represents gore and blood with the red title and darkness and evil with the black background. The disturbing and hard-looking face in the background will confirm the viewers idea of this being a horror film. This poster is relatively simple and also obeys the rule of thirds and finds the best places to put the objects in which are most important for the audience to see, for example, the left-hand third is the left hand and razor, similarly with right-hand third, however, the middle third includes the information (film title and names involved) and the macabre face which will confirm the audiences feeling that this film is a 'guaranteed scare' for all horror/thriller lovers.
The white foreground with the evil-looking character is contrasted with the pure black background and really highlights the details of the face which when focused on will really send a chill down one's spine.
The audience are instantly informed with the information of the name of the film because the masthead stands out so well due to the fact that the 'blood-red' really contrasts the black.
