What makes a good poster? An iconic image. A powerful tagline. An eye-popping design. I could go on and on. But the most important thing is that a good poster should instantly catch our attention. It should incite not just a passing glance, but a second look. It should give us an idea of what the film is about, without overloading us with facts.
For the third year in a row, I decided to make a countdown of the best movie posters of the year. It was a daunting task to trim it down to ten, but I’m proud to have done it. You may go to this link to check the 43 posters that missed the top 10 by a hairline.
And now, on to my list…
10. Music from the Big House
9. A Horrible Way to Die
8. Enter the Void
7. I'm Still Here
6. The Last Exorcism
5. The Social Network
4. Black Swan
3. I Am Love
2. Rabbit Hole
And the number one poster is...

1. Buried
