Hidden message found in poster for The Following
TV Feature

With added sideboob, because serial killing can be sexy too.
This poster for it makes use of one of the TV/film serial killer's favourite hobbies: covering a room or person with cryptic handwritten text, say Bible quotes or the writings of De Sade, that sort of thing. You know, so two FBI guys can walk around the room or corpse and the tightly-wound guy's like, "He's nuts! Let's hit the street and crack some heads!" but the younger, more thoughtful one's like, "But imagine the discipline this takes. He's calm. Methodical." And so on.
In this case it's all been written on a semi-naked woman, which must have taken a while and a decent stock of felt-tips. But look closer and you'll see a hidden message.
If I have one hope for The Following, it's that the first guy will actually turn out to be right for once.
