What Is wrong with the graphic? Body shape? Skin?

I think it is a cool throwback to classic horror movies.

So is the graphic considered sexist imagery according to fourth wave feminism? Did your daughter have an issue with the graphic?

My immediate reaction was much what Tami described. It just seemed not to work. I don't know if it makes a difference, but there is a popular culture reference in the poster:
