1. A
This looks like its fading away like a ghost
and whenever someone mentions
paranormal activity, you think of ghosts so
using this font in white and making it fade
away gives of the impression that’s its
supernatural.
The cracked wall
implies that it’s
going to form cracks
on the young girl’s
future and present
life. As this is above
the face drawn with
blood by the girl
implies the face is
the supernatural
person possessing
the girl and taking
her life away from
her.
The title Sinister looks as
though its evil and is giving the
impression something bad is
going to happen which the
word actually means.
This image created in
blood is looking
straight at us, and is
we read it, it’s telling
us once you see him
nothing can save you
telling us he is a
thing and he has the
most power if all
supernatural things.
The girl is walking into
darkness giving of the
impression she has been
possessed and nothing
can save her like is says
under the title. The fact
she looks innocent
makes the audience feel
for her straight away.
She had on something
with the colour of an off
white showing she isn’t
so innocent anymore.
This shows that the face on the wall has
possessed her as the blood coming from her
hand is falling into a picture of a person, as you
can recognise someone from their finger prints
shows he has took over her body as her blood
is falling into a picture of him.
The ropes on the floor could symbolise
that she is going to use them to kill
someone or kill herself to get away from
this man but it looks as though he has
fully got her as she is walking away from
them.
There is a common theme of
grey, this symbolises that the
supernatural thing is
emotionless, dull and dark,
the colour grey is usually
associated with loss and she
gets lost from her family.
