From Wikipedia:

Fear Over the City (French: Peur sur la ville) is a 1975 French crime film directed by Henri Verneuil and starring Jean-Paul Belmondo. […] It was released in the United States and the United Kingdom as The Night Caller.

PLINC’s vibrating Tension in use on the posters for the Columbia Pictures release of the R-rated “psycho-dramatic film” with music by Ennio Morricone. Belmondo can be seen in the role of policeman Jean Letellier trying to track down a serial killer of young women.

Compare to the poster for Shivers from the same year, featuring typography that appears to emulate Tension’s effect.
