Typography of Poster

For my poster I needed to select a suitable typography for the Horror Genre. I considered various fonts, but as with all Horror films, there is a certain stereotypical and conventional font type, usually showing a gory, blood soaked lettering that reflect the horror that will appear in the film. I could find no such lettering on the standard Word document fonts, so I decided to look to the website, particularly the website 1001 Free Fonts, which had a whole section on Horror Fonts. Here are a few that I found:
I have decided to go with the "You Murderer" Font as it better matches the Thriller aspects of my film, whilst also conforming to the gory Horror typography.
