DEAD MAN'S SHOES DVD COVER ANALYSIS

DEAD MAN'S SHOES DVD COVER ANALYSIS

Dead Man's shoe is a thriller, this is first insinuated by the colour scheme of the DVD cover. The colour scheme is red, black and white. The Front cover is an outline of a man, however it is black, this makes this character seem mysterious. The background behind the man is red, which emphasises danger. The title of the film  "Dead Man's Shoes", "Dead" is written in red, which again represents blood and danger. "Man's" is written in white, which stands out, this could emphasise innocence, purity, this man that presumedly dead is not exactly the villain, but could be the protagonist. "Shoes" is written in red, which again represents danger. The image of the man is a close up which is emphasising the ax that he is holding, which relates to the colour scheme red, which again is emphasising danger & blood again. 

In the reviews it says "Taxi Driver meets first blood in the midlands" again it is giving the audience an idea that it is a thriller.
