Pobesneli Maks (‘Raging Max’) headlines this Serbian poster for the release of Mad Max (1979).

In a wild, post-apocalyptic Australian wasteland, Mad Max is a leather-clad, revenge-driven road warrior brought to life by visionary director George Miller. Max has become a legendary figure worldwide – seen as a samurai in Japan, a Viking in Scandinavia, and known as ‘Raging Max’ in Serbia. 

The poster features a bold central image of the armed Max above his Interceptor car and with the English title of the film spelled out on the highway.

The excessive grey space around Max gives the odd impression that he is floating in space and works against the dynamism of the overall design.
