- Starting with the main selling point of the magazine cover which is the figure of the killer in the centre of the film. This is indicated by the killer holding a knife in his/hers hand, this also gives away the genre which is a horror/thriller. The killer is wearing dark clothes which symbolise evil and therefore tell the audience that he/she is the villain in the film.
- The title of the film Welcome to the Neighbourhood is shown clearly and is in the second biggest font size on the page, second from the name of the magazine Empire. It is in a white font colour to show the innocence of the couple just moving into a new neighbourhood.
- The caption we have used "How well do you know your neighbours" this will relate heavily to audiences and will make them feel paranoid about how well they actually know their neighbours. The caption is in a red font colour, we have used red to symbolise blood that will be involved in the film.
- The poster offers inside mitpatarpot productions horror blockbuster. People would buy the magazine to find out how the film was constructed and if there will be any future productions. The magazine gives the every reader free posters, this is done as a promotion to try and get as many people to buy the magazine as possible. Finally the magazine also offers a decade celebration on previous horror films this will attract the eye of horror fans and will also promote the magazine.
Overall i think this magazine cover is very effective as it has all aspects needed to attract audiences and promote the film.
