The Silence of the Lambs

I chose to base my third poster analysis on thriller
“The Silence of the Lambs” (released January
1991) as I found it interesting how conventional
these horror posters are trending to be with the
stereotypical use of shades white and black and a
third bright colour connoting danger and death.

This is interesting however, as instead of the use of
red which I have found is used in the vast majority
of horror film posters, the producers of this poster
have opted for orange. Orange is seen as a slightly
less aggressive colour in comparison to red,
therefore they may have used it to symbolize the
vulnerability of the woman on the poster, further
stereotypically portraying the female as the victim.

It is clear that this is the main poster for the
advertisement of the film as it presents the
protagonist actor names and the film distributors.
