Analysis of Thriller Posters - Shutter Island

• The colour scheme is black and red which signifies death and the unknown
• The image of Leonardo DiCaprio is half lit which shows that there is more than there appears to be and adds mystery to the character
• The lone tagline away from all the other texts shows isolation
• The rain and stormy seas are a pathetic fallacy
• The title is written in bold but smeared red paint
• the island is made up with the use of multiple pictures but is untidy which can signify confusion
