Movie Poster analysis: Dead Snow

Dead snow is a horror film set in the Alps following 6 people on a winter holiday but quickly turns into a bad situation as it is where Nazi SS soldiers were based in WW2, the soldiers come back from the dead as zombies. I have chosen this poster as it is horror and have also seen this film so know about it. The title for this poster is a block font which inside includes the characters in the movie who need to survive.  I believe this affect in the text is effective as it helps the text stand out than the usual colour fill in a text block. It initially sets the scene of a zombie horror movie which the Nazi soldiers head with a zombie skin. One of the main characters is standing over the zombies head with a lower medium show holding a bloody chainsaw, he also has an axe in a holster showing they are prepared to fight off the zombies. In-between the main characters legs you  can see a small wooden shack were the people have slept  in. there is a lot of landscape in the background to be seen to the left is a wood were they will be chased leading to the story and to the right is a mountain where the Nazi zombies are found.
