American Zombie Poster

I chose to make my poster this way because it has some of the similar to other posters of successful films. The concept of the hand idea is similar to other horror/zombie film posters, however they mainly use whole arms coming out of the ground, but I have just gone for the bloody hand print on the poster this is just to create an affect of horror and a threatening gesture to the audience to what they will experience when watching this film.

The main theme of the poster is centred around the name of the film with the American flag being in the background with the bloody handprint taking over the centre of the flag. This could be seen as a clue into the plot of the story with the bloody handprint (the zombie/infected) taking over the flags (America) main attraction.

The style of title was made to stand out from the background of the rest of the poster and really make you aware of the name of the film, and the colours still fit in with the rest of the poster as it already has the white from the stripes of the flag and the blue from the corner to help the blue outline on the title fit into the overall appeal of the poster.
