ALIEN 2 (FRENCH) 1986 Movie Poster - Refrigerator Magnet: Design Description

This refrigerator magnet showcases the iconic artwork of the French theatrical poster for "Aliens, le retour" (Alien 2). The design is a powerful visual representation of the film's core themes: survival, conflict, and the terrifying unknown. The image is dominated by a central figure, usually Ellen Ripley, holding her pulse rifle.

Iconic Imagery and Composition

The primary visual element is often Ripley, positioned in a stance of defiance and readiness for battle. The French version retained this key image. Surrounding her, or looming in the background, are the xenomorphs, the nightmarish extraterrestrial creatures that represent the ultimate threat. Their presence immediately establishes the atmosphere of danger and horror that is central to the film.

Color Palette and Typography

The color palette typically utilizes dark, contrasting hues—deep blacks, ominous reds, and metallic shades. These colours evoke a sense of foreboding and tension. The typography, rendered in bold, impactful fonts, announces the film's title, "Aliens, le retour," in French, along with the names of key individuals and the production and distribution details that are the elements that differ from the English poster.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design serves as a powerful symbol of the film's narrative. Ripley's stance against the Xenomorphs symbolizes human resilience and the fight against an overwhelming, hostile force. The xenomorphs themselves represent the unknown, the primal, and the destructive power of the alien threat. The poster art, therefore, acts as a visual shorthand for the film's core themes of survival, heroism, and the enduring battle against the unknown.

Die-cut refrigerator magnets made from flexible vinyl with a matte surface and a solid black magnetic backing. Available in five sizes, they stick strongly to metal while staying easy to move and reposition.

These magnets feel substantial but bend slightly when needed — a balance that helps them conform to smooth metal without cracking. The matte finish softens reflections under kitchen lighting so colors read clearly without glare. Because each piece is cut to the artwork’s outline, the result looks neat and thoughtfully finished.

The black backing delivers consistent contrast on shiny surfaces, and printing uses modern, low-impact inks that keep tones lively through everyday handling. They are built to be handled, moved, and displayed repeatedly without losing form or adhesion.

  • Material: flexible vinyl with a black magnetic backing for reliable holding power.
  • Finish: matte coating that reduces glare and preserves color depth.
  • Printing: full-color, eco-conscious inks for crisp details and vibrant hues.
  • Durability: designed for frequent use on smooth metal surfaces; resists peeling and warping.
  • Precision: die-cut edges follow the artwork; extremely fine islands or slivers may blend during cutting.

Perfect for refrigerator doors, magnetic whiteboards, steel lockers, or metal filing cabinets. They’re also handy for displays at events or temporary signage where you want a neat, movable solution.

  1. Prep: remove dust and grease with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth, then allow the surface to dry completely.
  2. Place: set the magnet flat, press from the center outward to make full contact and remove any trapped air.
  3. Reposition: lift gently and move if needed — avoid folding or pinching along the same tight crease repeatedly.

Heads-up: very intricate artwork can look slightly different after die-cutting; tiny, closely spaced pieces may join together in production.

To keep magnets looking their best, dust them off with a soft microfiber cloth. For smudges, use a barely damp cloth and blot dry immediately — don’t soak the magnet or use abrasive scrubs.

Avoid harsh chemicals and scouring pads, which can dull the matte surface or damage the backing. With simple, gentle care your magnets will stay crisp and retain their hold for a long time.

Sizes are listed by the magnet’s longest side. For example, a 3″ magnet is three inches across its largest edge. This gives a consistent reference when choosing the right fit for your space.

The die-cut follows your artwork for a close-fitting border; slight variation is normal with very detailed silhouettes, but each piece is finished to look tidy and professional.
