The scanlines effect looks OK - maybe use a gradient mask to fade it towards the bottom on the poster - but you really need to use fewer fonts. Basic graphic design recommends that in most cases, the number of fonts within a piece should be limited to two (or three if a particular font is needed for emphasis). Of course, this isn't a hard-and-fast rule but if you intend to use a mixture of fonts you need to be skilled in selecting fonts that work well together to give the effect you desire.
