Sinister poster analysis

The conventions of the title is that although it is only a short one, its most effective as the short text makes the film seem more scary and creates fear for the audience as to what it is, the use of the word sinister is scary as we connote sinister with death, threatening or portending evil, harm, or trouble.
A young girl is used as to show she’s vulnerable and to create a sympathetic field for the audience. Also stereotypically the main conventions of a horror film is young girls are they are scarier. The young girl is smearing the clown face with blood this suggests that is what is going to be in the film, blood, gore and clowns or demons.
Here the producers of this film poster have included other films to gain an audience and promote there film.
