Poor poster design full stop. Should have been a shot looking over the shoulder of the woman in black towards DR, with DR placed in the image big enough to be recognisable, but visually dominated by the image of the woman in black, and looking at her, not us. Then the title of the film, the tagline and the poster concept slot together, because they then all reflect the film, whereas the image opted for may as well have the tagline: without the Harry Potter glasses on, Daniel Radcliffe looks like THIS'. Except he doesn't look like that really, because they've given him a jawline and jaw muscles he doesn't actually have. It's dumbass level poster design to simply shove the face of the star of the film 'as close to the person looking at the poster as possible' regardless of the fact the title character is supposed to be a threat to be feared and it invites a pantomime style catcall (She's behind you!!) to have her where she is in the image)
