A photographic movie poster of a screaming mummified face inside a dark stone sarcophagus, lit against near-total blackness. Across the bottom of the frame, a large widely spaced serif title in weathered gold capitals sits centered, with a smaller line of spaced gold capitals above it, rendered as "TITLE". In the upper-left quadrant, the pale face of an adult woman tilts back, her mouth stretched wide open in a scream. One visible eye stares upward, glassy and pale, ringed by dark shadow. Dark brown burial cloths wrap her head and shoulders, inscribed with faint golden glyphs that catch the light like etched marks. More of the inscribed wrappings drape over her chest on the right side, the gold symbols scattered across the cracked leather-like surface. At the top of the frame, the thick gray edge of the sarcophagus lid cuts diagonally across, its rough stone texture barely visible in the dark. In the lower-left corner, a second massive stone edge slices diagonally upward, framing the face between the two slabs. The space between the slabs is a void of deep warm black. Across the center, the adult woman's throat and jaw catch the only strong light, her skin rendered pale and waxy. In the upper-right corner, darkness swallows the sarcophagus interior completely. The lighting is a single harsh source from the lower front, throwing the screaming mouth into relief and gilding the inscribed glyphs while the upper lid falls into murky shadow. In the bottom-right corner, the golden title letters glow faintly against the black. The stone edge and the gold title leave only a sliver of black between them in the bottom-left corner. The palette runs from burnt umber and antique gold to ashen gray, all sunk in black. The final image is claustrophobic and funereal: one trapped face, two slabs of stone, and ancient writing gleaming in the dark.
