Zombie Clone Wars 50's Style Poster

I found a cool tutorial on the net on making 50's style movie posters so I gave it a shot.
The original file is 330dpi, 4961x7016 so I'm thinking about having it printed to put up on my wall.
It'll fit on an A2 page so if anyone's interested in the file for print, drop me a PM.

I like the colors and the graphical elements. Only their relation to each other bugs me.

Here's some suggestions:
I reckon it would look better without the severed body parts in the bottom. That way the main element in the image (the four troopers) could be made larger. Try bringing them down a little too. If you insist on having the body parts in the image as well, try to incorporate them more closely with the four troopers. And to keep the lay-out that the four figures are in front of the text (which I like!), bring the text lower too and/or make it bigger. Also, maybe tilt the text a bit? I find it quite common in old movie posters.

Nice work!
Looks wicked and it would make for a cool personal poster if you put it up on your wall.

I too, thought the dismembered body pieces were out of place, then I remembered it is a zombie flick poster after all.. Ideas for improvements? Olli pointed out a good suggestion of making the troopers larger. That'd balance out the composition of the page a bit more.
Thanks guys! I'll definitely make those changes. They make sense.
Making the troopers bigger is something I should've thought of. I feel a bit like an idiot now :P
As for the body parts, I think I can remove those. To be honest I only put those in because I was bored waiting for textures and fonts to finish downloading.
Thanks a lot for the comments! I really appreciate them!
