An American Werewolf in London (1981) Movie Poster Magnet - Design Description

This refrigerator magnet showcases the iconic design of the 1981 movie poster for "An American Werewolf in London," a visual masterpiece that perfectly encapsulates the film's unique blend of horror and humor. The artwork instantly draws the viewer into the eerie atmosphere of the film.

The Ominous Atmosphere

The central element of the design is the chilling presence of a full moon. This glowing orb dominates the backdrop, immediately signaling the werewolf theme and the supernatural forces at play. Its luminescence casts an ominous glow, setting the stage for the terror to come.

A Glimpse into the Horror

Key to the design's impact is the depiction of the werewolf, or the transformation scene. The visual element captures the visceral horror that defines the film. This emphasizes the film's gory side.

Typography and Tone

The title "An American Werewolf in London" is boldly presented, often in striking colors that contrast with the darker elements of the poster. This striking title, which stands out against the dark background, ensures that the message is impossible to miss. The overall tone is a clever mix of terror and subtle humor. The design manages to be both visually striking and subtly comedic, capturing the film’s unique approach to horror.

Symbolism and Narrative

The famous Drew Struzan version, for example, features a werewolf head emerging from shadows, with London below. The juxtaposition conveys the story's setting, while the shadowy figure speaks to the film's thematic exploration of fear and transformation. This poster design, whether in its totality or in fragments, is an instant invitation to discover the horrors that unfold in the heart of London, under the spell of the full moon.

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.
