you seem to have combined intertexuality with your analysis of the Kiss of the vampire? these are 2 separate posts, there is little I the way of any analysis in the intertexuality post - just examples left un explained. You analysis of the horror poster is more in-depth but Your answer is not as in-depth in some of the areas covered. For example the contextual reasons behind the portrayal of women in 1950/60s. This sheet is very important is gives you all the main points, theorist thinking and media language concerned with representation for print based advertisement, but also is relevant to most analysis of media texts in terms of representation
