  At the topof the poster, it has a short slogan which gives the audience a little more insight in what they can expect from this sequel. There is only one main image on the poster that takes up the whole poster.The image is of the killers face/mask which is very effective as once again gives the audience more of an insight into the film but without giving too much away. The title of the film is at the bottom of the poster in bold letters, in white and is in a large font size to make it stand out from the rest of the poster.The date of when the film will be released and in cinemas is just below the title but in a smaller font size.

  There is a‘seller’ line at the top of the poster that tells you what other film the producer has made to draw audiences who were a fan of the other film. The title and the main image of the poster is combined together. I feel like this is very effective and a clever way to combined two aspects of the poster together. Short and snappy slogan Website of the film, so audiences can learn and interact more with the film before it comes out. The month of when the film is out is in a different font and colour to the rest of the text on the poster which make sit stand out to the audience.
