The poster suggests that The Amityville Horror takes place in a real town called Amityville and involves something horrifying. It shows a man walking towards a big, old house in the woods holding a gun. This implies that the film will focus on a man trying to kill everyone in the isolated house. The tagline "Watch 'em and kill 'em" further hints that he has been watching the residents and is now going to kill them, possibly as a hired assassin. The overall dark tones and imagery aim to create an atmosphere of danger and suspense.

Stam argues that absolute fidelity between a film adaptation and its source material is impossible because film and literature are different mediums. While novels provide more descriptive detail, films can convey information through visuals. Stam discusses how adaptations are often judged harshly for what they omit rather than appreciated for what they add through creative license. He cites the example of Resident Evil: Extinction, which differs from the video game source material and novelization in its characters and plot details but was still enjoyed by those unfamiliar with the original works. Stam advocates that adaptations should not be viewed as inferior for deviations, but instead as new artistic works engaging in an intertextual dialogue with their sources.Poster horrer

The documentary tells the story of Nicholas, a 13-year old boy who disappeared from his home in Texas in 1994 and was found 3.5 years later alive in a village in Spain.

It begins by explaining that the idea is loosely based on Tim Burton's short film "Vincent" about a boy who wants to be like Vincent Price.

The document provides an analysis of the movie poster for the 2012 horror/mystery film "The Cabin in the Woods". It summarizes that the poster features a floating cabin in the middle surrounded by blurred, misty woods to imply danger and horror. It also notes that the low camera angle used makes the cabin seem powerful and mystical. While the title and visuals provide some context for the plot, the poster maintains an air of mystery as to why the cabin is depicted in this way.Film Posters Presentation

Will Smith is featured prominently on the magazine cover to advertise the film "I Am Legend". His serious expression and the weapon he holds provide clues about his character and the film's genre. Short text highlights include the film's location of New York and its sci-fi horror genre. Mysterious silhouettes and fog in the background create an ominous and uncertain tone for viewers. The color scheme and Will Smith's central focus on the cover signal that he is the protagonist in this thriller/horror film.Horror research

This document analyzes the movie poster for the 2005 film "The Amityville Horror" remake. It summarizes that the poster focuses on the haunted house as the source of evil, with the large looming house taking up over half the image and the main character George appearing small below it. The poster conveys how the house is corrupting and controlling George physically and mentally through imagery like the light radiating from the house and his hunched, pained body language. Unusual aspects like only showing part of the image and the placement of text are analyzed as representing the deterioration of George's mental state and thoughts as the house's influence takes hold of him.Research of slasher movie tropes

The document discusses several common character archetypes and conventions in slasher movies:
- The Jock is often seen as the false hero who fails to save the group. The Stoner provides comic relief. The Token Minority and Promiscuous Girl are often the first killed. The Main Male and Final Girl are the most sympathetic and often the last surviving.
- Common locations include haunted houses, cabins, and woods. The Killer wears a mask and uses weapons to dominate victims. A group of friends is formed that gets killed one by one.
- German Expressionist films used symbolism and shadows to add atmosphere and deeper meanings that still influence horror films today.Recently uploaded (20)

APM event hosted by the South Wales and West of England Network (SWWE Network)
Speaker: Aalok Sonawala
The SWWE Regional Network were very pleased to welcome Aalok Sonawala, Head of PMO, National Programmes, Rider Levett Bucknall on 26 February, to BAWA for our first face to face event of 2025. Aalok is a member of APMs Thames Valley Regional Network and also speaks to members of APMs PMO Interest Network, which aims to facilitate collaboration and learning, offer unbiased advice and guidance.
Tonight, Aalok planned to discuss the importance of a PMO within project-based organisations, the different types of PMO and their key elements, PMO governance and centres of excellence.
PMOs within an organisation can be centralised, hub and spoke with a central PMO with satellite PMOs globally, or embedded within projects. The appropriate structure will be determined by the specific business needs of the organisation. The PMO sits above PM delivery and the supply chain delivery teams.

A Horror Poster
- 1. The Amityville Horror poster
- 2. Title The Amityville Horror. Amityville is a real life place in America and the word horror is fairly self-explanatory. This suggests something horrifying that may have happened at some point in Amityville but you have to watch the film to find out what that was.
- 3. Title Graphics Red, thin and long, with the letter Y dripping like blood. This could mean theres lots of blood and death in it as the letters seem designed specially so they put the observer in mind of blood. It could also mean that some may find this film sick and twisted as thats how some people may find letters designed like this.
- 4. Tag-line Watch em and kill em. This might mean it is from the man in the posters point of view and he has been watching the residents of the house for a long time for some reason and now hes going to kill them. It is possible hes a hired assassin because the words sound like orders by a higher authority who wants the residents dead for some reason.
- 5. Star No star is mentioned. This means anyone could live or die and increases the suspense of the film.
- 6. Images A big, old-fashioned house in the background, trees on either side that look like curtains and a man who looks like hes walking towards it (as he has his back to the observer), wearing a T-shirt and trousers and holding what looks to be a gun. This implies most of the film will take place in a big house in the middle of the woods that perhaps cant be found easily and the curtain trees hide it from prying eyes. This also makes it the perfect venue for someone to come to the house and kill everyone, like it looks like that man may be planning to do.
- 7. Target Audience Fans of horror, Michael Bay, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and true stories because it looks like a horror, it says at the top that its from Michael Bay who produced the TCM (so its the first thing you read) and it says just underneath the title that its based on a true story. It doesnt seem to be aiming to any particular age limit as the poster has not included a certificate but it probably wouldnt be suitable for anyone under 15.
- 8. Unique Selling Point (USP) Its produced by Michael Bay and its based on a true story which can be seen above and below the title. This gives an impression it may be similar to the TCM but perhaps itll be slightly more realistic.
- 9. Colours Grey house, black trees and a slight bit of light coming through from behind the house and towards the man. This may indicate the wood as being a dark and scary place with the house as the one safe place for now as its a little bit lighter in colour but the light may be revealing to the residents that a threat is coming out of the woods, trying to give a warning that its really too late for.
- 10. Genre Horror because of what is suggested in the other sections. There could also be an element of mystery in it as the observer doesnt know why this person wants to kill anyone, if they have been hired, who that was and why and, as there seems to be no actual star
