split-screen poster — Oversized title, stacked type lines

A painted horror movie poster uses a split layout, with a stark white field covering the upper-left two thirds and a framed painted scene banded across the middle. In the upper-right corner, a tall narrow black panel carries stacked yellow condensed uppercase tagline text reading "THE STORY OF A PSYCHOTIC KILLER" !, the exclamation mark rendered as a bold yellow bar and dot. Below the tagline inside the same black panel, a small painted vignette shows a blonde adult woman in a red top raising a knife over the bare back of a seated adult man. Across the center of the poster, a horizontal framed illustration shows a frightened adult woman with dark wavy hair lying on a lavender bedspread, propped on her elbows, her mouth open in alarm. She wears a sleeveless peach-pink nightgown, her bare legs stretched out behind her across the bed. A simple metal bed frame is visible at the far left edge behind her shoulder. The painted background behind the bed is a flat deep teal-green wall, its brushwork visible in broad strokes. Slashing diagonally from the upper center down to the lower center, an oversized knife dominates the frame, its polished steel blade pointing downward and its black crosshatched handle rising toward the top edge. The knife tip touches the top of the giant title at the bottom of the poster, where a small red blood drop hangs from the puncture point. Across the lower third, a huge italic bold uppercase "TITLE" in bright red spans the full width, the letters slanted and overlapping the knife blade. The middle letter of the title is pierced by the knife, and a single red blood drop drips from the wound in the lettering. No other text appears; the poster carries no billing block. The lighting is the flat, even illumination of vintage painted key art, with soft modeled shading on the adult woman's skin and a hard white glint running the length of the knife blade. The color contrasts are stark: warm peach skin and red title against the cool teal wall and the clean white surround. The brushwork is loose and expressive in the background, tighter and more detailed on the woman's face and the knife. Overall, the composition balances the vast white negative space against the dense painted band and the blood-red title, in a palette of stark white, deep teal, peach, and alarm red rendered in 1960s painted exploitation style, and the mood is one of lurid, theatrical menace.
