The recently-released adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower hasn't exactly landed with the splash that the source material deserves, and it remains to be seen if we'll be given any more films set in this universe.

The studio must have known they had a dud on their hands, since they didn't begin the film's marketing push until March of this year - just a few months out from release.

It was during this month that the above poster dropped, and, oddly, for a film called The Dark Tower, the poster featured no such tower in sight.

Or so it would appear.

If the poster is viewed in negative, the titular dark tower is revealed in all its menacing glory.

This is a cool, simple little trick, and will probably have hundreds of fans viewing movie posters in negative for many, many years to come, desperately searching for secrets.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
