Visual Elements & Composition
The design prominently features the film's title, "The Defilers," rendered in bold, striking typography, likely chosen for maximum impact on potential viewers. This title anchors the composition, immediately identifying the subject matter.
The artwork may depict central figures in a state of distress or implied violence, reflecting the film's exploitation themes. This imagery is presented in a stylized or painted format, common for the era, and intended to be provocative. The specific scene captured likely hints at the film's exploration of taboo subjects.
Color Palette & Symbolism
