Poster Description

The poster features the film’s towering protagonist—played by Allison Hayes—as a gigantic, scantily clad woman striding through a cityscape, destroying buildings and flipping cars on a crowded highway. Her pose is confident and destructive, symbolizing both raw power and chaotic femininity. The composition uses bold angles and dramatic foreshortening to amplify the sense of motion and scale.

The background is filled with tiny, panicked citizens, overturned vehicles, and an ominous yellow-orange sky. The title is emblazoned in large, aggressive red block letters, while taglines tease the film’s outrageous premise. The colors—especially the bright yellows, reds, and blacks—are characteristic of 1950s pulp cinema and comic-book-influenced design.
