"There Will Be Blood," SNES Style

Spoiler alert: if you haven't seen 2007's There Will Be Blood, the video below is a massive spoiler -- in the best possible way. The creators turn TWBB into a sidescrolling Super Nintendo style game (sorry, not a playable game -- just a video) lasting just one minute. The original film is 158 minutes long, so this 158:1 compression is shockingly impressive -- particularly given that it seems to get all of the major plot points in there. If you have seen TWBB, you owe it to nerds everywhere to watch this one-minute clip and be amazed. I mean, come on, the thing even has SNES style cutscenes. Also: "Milkshake!" when a power-up is acquired.

The film's creators describe it thus:
