This week’s featured poster is from Gretel and Hansel, which leans into a moody split complementary harmony. Yellow-orange acts as the key color, glowing from the doorway and drawing the viewer’s eye, while the desaturated green and blue tones establish a foreboding and mysterious atmosphere.
One of the most fascinating elements of this design is the hidden easter egg: the word "FEED," subtly woven into the tree branches. It’s a clever nod to the unsettling themes of the story, rewarding those who take a closer look. The restrained use of color paired with such detailed design elevates this poster from creepy to truly captivating.
