We're big fans of classic movies here at Creative Bloq. So when a creative puts a clever spin on some of our favourites, it makes our day. Slovakian designer Dusan Cezek (opens in new tab) has recreated his favourite characters and scenes using 8-bit animated gifs and the results are gloriously retro.

"I like to explore all kinds of different styles and expressions," Cezek explains. "I really don't like to be stuck with one style for too long. So this was my first and, as it seems, last pixel project. It combines my two passions: directing and illustration.

"I chose some of my favourite movies for the project - not necessarily mainstream but known enough to be recongnised." The choices include Shaun of the Dead, Fight Club and District 9. Can you recognise the other offerings?
