WAXWORK (1988) Movie Poster - Refrigerator Magnet: Design Description

Embrace the chilling allure of the 1988 cult classic with this refrigerator magnet, a miniature echo of the iconic Waxwork movie poster. This artwork encapsulates the film's blend of horror and comedy, drawing you into a world of waxen terror.

Central Imagery and Symbolism

At the heart of the design is the enigmatic wax museum owner, a figure of sophisticated menace. He stands before a foreboding doorway, the portal to a realm of unspeakable horrors. This focal point immediately sets the scene, representing the gateway between the mundane and the macabre.

The Gallery of Horrors

Surrounding the central figure, the poster unleashes a gallery of classic horror creatures. Grotesque wax figures and monster faces – vampires, werewolves, and other iconic frights – peek out from the shadows. These creatures embody the horrors waiting within the museum, hinting at the film’s blend of monster movie tropes and dark humor. The composition suggests that these horrors are not mere exhibits but potential threats, alive and waiting.

Color and Tone

The poster’s color scheme amplifies its eerie ambiance. Dark blue and black backgrounds create a spooky, atmospheric feel, contrasted by bold highlights. This stark visual contrast mirrors the film's campy horror‑comedy tone, signaling the scares and fun awaiting within. The title, often emblazoned in a vibrant color like pink or red, pops against the darkness, commanding attention.

Overall Impression

The overall design captures the essence of 1980s horror movie style. It’s dramatic, vivid, and designed to grab attention. The poster art successfully conveys the campy, horror‑comedy tone of Waxwork, offering both a promise of scares and a playful wink at classic monster movie conventions.

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.
