Assignment
"She Rises" tells the story of a young couple who, in the process of shooting their own B horror movie, find themselves at the mercy of a real-life succubus. What happens next is a descent into the cinematic dreamy underworld, blurring the lines between fantasy and horrific reality. The Shakespearean film-within-a-film forces the viewer to confront the idea of cinema as voyeurism. The teaser poster needed to hint at that concept without giving too much away, subtly combining desire with darkness.
Approach
Given the film's celebration of B horror and retro erotica, we created a poster that references that era of cinematic history. The colors, typography, and provocative pose make this poster feel like it could live on a wall next to something like "Emmanuelle." However, a closer look reveals the serpents in her hair and all over her body, hinting at the horrors that are about the ensue.
Results
Our poster continues to garner attention from consumers and industry professionals alike. As our client, Jennifer Blanc-Biehn said, "OMG amazing! You guys rock! You have outdone yourselves." We'll take that as a success!
