Don't remember anything from this movie, but I guess there's a reason for the green light in his face?

I'm not convinced regarding the TT and actor names, but don't have any suggestions either...

Sorry JR, I can't say I'm feeling it right now :( What if you tried some single-color overlay on the original image instead of multiple colors?

And I'm with Z on the TT too, it isn't very exciting at the moment. Maybe go with 2 fonts for the title and the actors? Also how about adding David Duchovny's name too? He didn't have his name on the poster back then, but he's a big star now :D

Well, I thought bright 'rainbow' colours could reflect his twisted mind. :chin: I bet he's looking for a 'door' in the picture. ;)

Also, I didn't really wanna colorize the bw pic 'normally' as that's what everyone's doing atm. :arms:

I'll work some more typography-wise, thanks.



For those who can't remember the weirdness of Early Grace's mind, the almost psychedelic 'states' he seems to enter once in awhile (or is it all the time?) - this movie is deffo worth watching again. :cheers:


And a fair warning should be given to the female viewers: Brad is incredibly vulgar, gross and neanderthal-like in both appearance and behaviour throughout the movie. :D


HD TRAILER

I've not seen this movie yet :( Not even a clue as to what it's about but i do like the start for the front Jakob, the first things that stood out and captured my attention was the varying colours... i like them :D Possibly add a little more to them? Or widen the spread between them so they merge more? As for the TT... try what the others have suggested? I'm not the best with them :P

I think with such a multi-coloured main image the blood effects on the front look pretty poor :P and i don't like the second TT either lol... maybe keep trying something basic rather than something too fancy like the main front?
