Poster Analysis - The Ring Two

The image looks static, like a television, which is iconic in the movie. This image is also seen in the first movie, so the audience will recognise it. This is a form of branding. The 'o' in two is a large circle, which is also branding. It also looks like a halo around the girl's head, making her seem angelic, which is ironic, as she is the villain.

The colours are typical of the horror genre. The poster uses black, white and grey, with a blue-ish tinge. This could tell the audience that the film is quite dark, and the lack of any colour indicates that the film is not a slasher.

The blurring is effective, and, depending on what we decide as our narrative, it could have some influence on what we include on our poster.
