SANTO VS THE KIDNAPPERS 1973 Movie Poster - Refrigerator Magnet: Design Description

A Slice of Mexican Cinema History

This refrigerator magnet showcases the iconic design of the "Santo vs. the Kidnappers" (1973) movie poster, a vibrant testament to Mexican lucha libre cinema. The artwork immediately draws the viewer into the world of El Santo, the legendary masked wrestler.

The Hero and the Threat

The poster's central focus is, of course, El Santo, rendered in his signature costume: the silver mask, wrestling tights, and flowing cape. This striking visual immediately identifies the character and establishes him as the hero. Surrounding him are dynamic images of action: criminals, a heroine brandishing a gun, and stylized figures engaged in battle. These elements hint at the thrilling narrative, hinting at the kidnapping plot and the ensuing conflict.

Color and Composition

The composition is a classic example of Mexican movie poster design, with bold, eye-catching colors and dynamic layouts. The title, whether in Spanish or English, is emblazoned across the artwork in bold letters to immediately capture the viewer's attention. The overall visual style promises a fun and action-packed experience, capturing the essence of the campy and entertaining spirit of the Santo film series.

Symbolism of the Image

The poster is rich in symbolic meaning. El Santo himself represents justice and heroism, a champion who fights for good against the forces of evil. The villains and the action scenes symbolize the conflict and struggles that Santo faces. The overall design offers a glimpse into the thrilling world of lucha libre cinema.

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.
