Skeleton Key

This poster instantly draws the audience attention to the centre of the eye, were the pupil would normally be, and creates an image and effect of unlocking someone's mind and inviting the audience into taking a look at the world from some one elses eyes, but alot more can be taken from this image, such as the eyebrows being thick with grey tips and wrinkles we can assume this person is a male figure in the mid ages or even older. 

The use of colour in this poster makes it seem very lifeless and there is no use of bright red colours, but this is what may make this poster stand out from others. Again no tag line is used for this poster, but i none is required in my opinion as the audience can take alot from the image what is taken inside the pupil and create an idea from that itself. The use of black used at the top of the eye gives an effect of once entering this world, only death will await as it slowly creeps over you, which is the effect of the drooping blackness in this particular image. 

The text used for the title is kept rather simple apart from a keyhole effect used for the centre word "E" again giving the effect of entering a different world through someone elses point of view and this symbol can be easily recognised and allows the story of the film itself, open. And if i comment on the image of what seems a middle ages man sitting in a wheel chair showing that he and whoever were to enter his world would be helpless and allow the audience for feel pity and remorse for the main character.
