"With this in mind, it should come as no surprise that I adore the new Conjuring: Last Rites poster honouring horror movie royalty, The Exorcist. With its simple yet effortlessly eerie design, the iconic Exorcist poster is one of the best horror film posters of all time (in my humble opinion). Perhaps I'm blinkered by nostalgia, but The Conjuring's slick homage has fully converted me to its screamfest schlock, and I'm not ashamed."
"Practically a beat-for-beat replica of The Exorcist's poster, the design features protagonists Ed and Lorraine Warren half-illuminated by a streetlight amidst eerie pitch-black darkness. Stylishly emulating the original's retro quality, the new poster has a fuzzy grain that adds an extra foreboding quality. An eagle-eyed fan on X claimed that one of the background windows featured a face lurking in the shadows. After a migraine-inducing screen staring session, I can't claim to see a thing - leave a comment below if you do."
A new Conjuring: Last Rites poster replicates The Exorcist poster's composition, featuring protagonists Ed and Lorraine Warren half-illuminated by a streetlight against deep darkness. The design emulates the original's retro quality through a fuzzy grain that enhances foreboding atmosphere. The poster makes inventive use of negative space to create a striking, eerie silhouette. An eagle-eyed fan on X reported a face in a background window, though the face remains ambiguous on close inspection. The poster functions as an explicit homage to classic horror aesthetics and aligns the franchise with iconic genre imagery.
