The Shining, Reimagined as 1950s Science Fiction

The Shining (1980), directed by Stanley Kubrick, is a psychological horror film. 1

The redesign keeps Saul Bass's face-and-title device and diagonal wordmark, then shifts the poster into 1950s science-fiction pulp: a helmeted alien face, orbital machinery, ray beams, a cratered moon, and distressed chartreuse, red, cyan, and bone ink against charcoal. 2

The original Saul Bass poster follows in full, with its yellow field, diagonal title, face built into the lettering, tagline, and billing preserved as printed. 3
