Whilst some marketing geniuses out there argue that every horror movie poster poster should have an equally frightening image in order to evoke a sense of fear or terror, there are others who disagree completely. And they're right, because there's a bit more to it than that. The greatest horror movie posters of all time think outside the box, although they do all have one thing in common, and that is that they're all relatively simple. They don't over do the gore, the ghosts or reveal too much of the plot; they focus on one central image and it's usually the image that is the main focus for the audience - usually the antagonist. It's because of these simple techniques that make both the movies and the posters so memorable. In fact, a lot of these posters have become a piece of cinematic history in their own right and they most definitely do their job in being able to sell the film to the public. The majority of these posters are now proudly on display in the living rooms of movie lovers across the globe. So here they are, some of the greatest horror movie posters all of time.
