The happening film poster


This film is from the horror genre so uses a cold dark and scary colour scheme of blue, black, purple, grey and white. The main characters are sitting at the front of the image looking scared, huddled together for safety and support. The city is behind them distorted and in dark scary colours for dramatic effect. The quote from the film is “we’ve sensed it. We’ve seen the signs. And now... it’s happening.” This suggests the mystery in the film and makes the audience want to know more. The typography used is thin white and very simplistic. The white contrasts against the black behind it and brings the poster together by reflecting the whiteness in the background. The credits, institution and certificate is all listed below in white type. The image used shows the films genre themes, characters and setting i think its a good picture to choose to represent the film, and should attract its audience well. Its audience would be fans of horror films, most ages apart from children as they might find it too scary.
