SHOGUN ASSASSIN (1980) Movie Poster - Refrigerator Magnet: Design Overview

Central Imagery

This refrigerator magnet showcases the iconic artwork of the 1980 Shogun Assassin movie poster, a powerful visual representation of the film's core themes. The primary focus is the stoic samurai warrior, Ogami Itto, often depicted in a dramatic pose, typically with his sword drawn. This image immediately conveys the film's action-packed essence.

Frequently, the poster art includes Ogami Itto's young son, DaigorĹŤ. This inclusion emphasizes the poignant father-and-son dynamic that forms the emotional heart of the film, highlighting the bond amidst a world of violence and bloodshed.

Style & Design

The design is immediately striking, employing a bold and graphic style reminiscent of classic exploitation cinema. Vivid colors dominate, with a palette often centered on reds, blacks, and yellows. The strategic use of these hues creates an atmosphere of intensity, danger, and drama, instantly grabbing the viewer's attention.

The film's title, "Shogun Assassin," is prominently displayed in bold lettering, further amplifying the impact of the poster. Accompanying taglines, such as “Sword & Sorcery… with a vengeance,” add to the sense of mystery and promise of thrilling action. The overall layout is meticulously crafted to evoke a gritty and action-oriented experience.

Symbolism

The artwork represents the film's core narrative. The samurai warrior embodies honor, skill, and the relentless pursuit of vengeance. The presence of DaigorĹŤ symbolizes innocence, vulnerability, and the enduring power of familial love in the face of adversity. The striking visual style and violent undertones reflect the samurai action, the graphic nature of the film, and the dangerous world the characters inhabit.

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.
