BEGINNING OF THE END 1957 Movie Poster - STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal: Design Description

This striking decal design faithfully recreates the iconic movie poster for the 1957 science-fiction classic, Beginning of the End. The artwork is a quintessential example of 1950s cinematic promotional style, designed to instantly capture attention and convey the film's core premise.

Dramatic Imagery

The central visual element is the depiction of giant grasshoppers, a terrifying symbol of mutated nature unleashed. These monstrous insects are dramatically oversized, towering over a recognizable city landscape, likely Chicago, creating a sense of scale and highlighting the threat. The composition conveys a feeling of impending doom and the vulnerability of humanity.

Bold Typography & Taglines

The title, "Beginning of the End," is rendered in a bold and prominent font, commanding attention. The typography is designed to be eye-catching and reinforces the film’s theme of catastrophic events. It's likely accompanied by sensational taglines designed to generate excitement and instill a sense of fear, further emphasizing the movie's thrilling nature.

Additional Elements & Their Symbolic Meaning

The design may also incorporate images of the film's stars, Peter Graves and Peggie Castle, to draw attention and build a connection with the viewer. Stylized scenes of destruction, like collapsing buildings or panicked crowds, are another possible element that contribute to the theme of chaos and reinforce the impact of the grasshopper threat. These scenes symbolize the collapse of civilization and the havoc caused by these giant creatures, acting as visual shorthand for the film's central conflict.

The overall design represents the essence of 1950s monster movies: the fear of the unknown, the power of nature gone awry, and the potential for a catastrophic end. It’s a powerful statement of the film’s core themes, meant to instill awe, terror, and an undeniable desire to witness the spectacle of the giant grasshoppers wreaking havoc.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
