The Mangler reborn poster has also took a different approach, instead of sticking with the red typography from the first mangler, it is now a silvery colour which signifies the machinery and evil that is shown in the trailers, the colours also link with the colours of the room in which the new, state of the art computer is shown to the pupils, it is effective in this poster how we don't see the manglers full face, only his eye. This is spooky as it adds to the mystery around him as we are unsure what he is and what has happened to him. The spiral of spikes around him reinforce the idea of death and torture that has already been signified in the trailer. At the top of the trailer it looks as if there is a cloudy sky, this is significant as bad weather usually signifies that something bad is going to happen in horror films; this is one of the very effective codes and conventions of horror films that is followed a lot.
