2. Drive (2011)
Like the film, this poster has sharp imagery, with Driver standing front and central. The city street and car in the background are equal characters and quite rightly share the page well with him.
1. The Thing (1982)
The piece de resistance - possibly the most pretty yet terrifying poster you'll ever see. As a way of peaking the viewers' interest and touching on their fears, this comes out on top as the most effective use of a poster to date. And did we mention how pretty it is?
