HORSEMAN OF THE SKULLS 1965 Movie Poster - Refrigerator Magnet: Design Description

This refrigerator magnet showcases a vibrant slice of vintage Mexican cinema, specifically the promotional artwork for the 1965 horror/western film known as El Charro de las Calaveras, or in English, The Rider of the Skulls. The design immediately transports the viewer back to the bold and dramatic aesthetic of 1960s movie posters, a visual style characteristic of Mexican genre films.

The poster's central figure is the masked "Charro," or horseman, who is the film's protagonist. The "Charro" is typically depicted in a powerful pose, often brandishing weapons or ready to confront the supernatural foes. The visual style embodies the thrilling spirit of horror/monster themes prevalent in Mexican cinema during that era.

The artwork, in its vintage style, utilizes a color palette and layout to create a dramatic and evocative feel. The use of bold colors, dramatic shadows, and dynamic compositions is characteristic of the time, meant to grab the viewer's attention and hint at the thrilling narrative of the film. The imagery often includes skull motifs, further emphasizing the film's macabre themes, and visually represents the film's unique blend of horror and western genres.

The poster design is a compelling representation of the film's core elements: a masked hero, battling supernatural creatures within a genre-bending storyline. It embodies the essence of classic Mexican cinema, showcasing a unique and visually captivating style that continues to resonate with fans of vintage movie art.

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.
