Description:
Fear is a 1964 Hungarian vintage movie poster for a Czechoslovakian crime movie designed by Sandor Benko who used a mixed technique to visually express the main theme of the film: fear. He placed the black and white photo of a scared man's eyes in the middle and he placed simple, geometric figures on the top of black colour blocks. The figures look like they are about to fall down. The typography is simple, just like the poster itself, yet it transfers a complex meaning.
Fear (original title: Strach) is a Czechoslovakian film.
A car deliberately runs down a young man on a road by a small border town. The locals recognize the dead man as one of the students who were there on volunteer work some time before. The police detectives, Major Kalas (Rudolf Hrusinsky) and Lieutenant Varga (Radoslav Brzobohaty) can then get on the trail of the people with whom the victim was involved, especially at the photographic studio headed by Bohuslav Pacer (Bohus Zahorsky).
