Phantasm

Poster for the horror film Phantasm, dominated by a red background and the tagline “If this one doesn’t scare you… you’re already dead!” It features a flying silver sphere with deadly blades, the ominous Tall Man looming over a coffin, and a terrified woman screaming on the right. Hooded figures and a floating boy add to the surreal, nightmarish imagery.
