"Anyone good at analysis?"

Hey everyone. I gotta do this media thing for tomorrow and i think that the picture in the middle of this poster represents something but im not sure what!

The killer wears a mask in the film, but the mask isnt made out of paper and doesnt say "she loves me, she loves me not" all over the real mask. I think there is some symbolism (sp?) behind it all but i cant explain it. I think it may be something to do with him hiding behind a mask because of something that happened when he was at school but im not sure!

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Media's easy, bla bla bla

Yeah, a lot is.

Now please, do go on rubbishing things.

Remember kids, you can't spell 'analysis' without the 'anal'.

At least its not poetry.

I ca do all the covers and stuff now it was just that Valentine one i wasnt sure about. The rest arent too bad.

"Horror movies have scary images on posters/covers so you know what type of film you're watching".

Seriously, if that isn't an A* then your media course is stupid.

Its basically "Analyse 3 DVD Covers and 3 Posters for Horror Movies"

and thats it...so i gotta "analyse"

I am assuming that is like placement/colour/font/size/representation and symbolism etc.

The other three don't have that same principle of contained subtle meaning and we need the context of it really.
