BEN (1972) Movie Poster Refrigerator Magnet - Design Overview

This refrigerator magnet showcases the iconic and chilling artwork from the 1972 horror film, Ben. The design immediately captures the essence of the film, focusing on the central character and the overwhelming presence of his rodent army.

The Art of Horror

The primary visual element is a striking depiction of Ben, the titular rat. Often rendered in close-up or a dramatically staged pose, Ben’s image dominates the design. This emphasizes his role as the leader and focal point of the narrative. Behind him, the artist often includes a shadowy, ominous representation of a rat swarm, effectively creating a sense of dread and impending threat.

Symbolism and Meaning

The poster's design is rich in symbolism. The lone rat, Ben, represents both individuality and intelligence, while the multitude of rats behind him symbolizes the power of the collective and the potential for chaos. The visual juxtaposition underscores the film's themes of companionship, loyalty, and the fear of the unknown. The dark and foreboding style, typical of 1970s horror, creates an atmosphere of suspense, immediately drawing the viewer into Ben's unsettling world.

A Legacy of Horror

The overall aesthetic is a testament to classic horror movie poster design. With its bold title lettering and dramatic composition, the magnet encapsulates the essence of the film. It serves as a miniature homage to a cinematic tale that effectively explores themes of good and evil through the unconventional perspective of a rat and his rodent legion.

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.
