Font choices

Here are the four fonts that I am considering using for my film poster and magazine;
For my main texts I am planning on using one or two of these fonts because I want the poster to stand out to the audience by using a bold, sans serif font because this will make the name of the film be clear and obvious to the audience. I've decided to use a font that has an eroded them attatched to it because this connotes a sense of violence, drama and action which are 3 elements I want to include in my film trailer.
After looking at numerous styles of fonts I have narrowed it down to these four styles because I think they best convey my genre. Research in the build up to this has enabled me to identify which fonts are unsuitable for my genre by looking at the font styles that other genres of films such as comedies use in comparison to the types of font that other films from the same genre as mine such as 'Kidulthood' use;
A similar, bold sans serif font is used by this film, this is because it is suitable for the genre and connotes the general themes of the film. I have looked at the font choices of other similar films and used them to influence my font choice.
