Oh, Hi Gamers! 'The Room' Gets Furnished With Glorious 8-Bit Graphics

by Warren Riddle on September 9, 2010 at 10:25 AM

The Room Tommy Wiseau beguiled millions of film fanatics with his astronomically high-budget (and personally funded) 2003 independent movie 'The Room.' Legions of fans maintain a passionate devotion to the film, which has forged an indelible role as a modern cult classic because of its (supposedly intentional) abhorrent acting and elementary script.

While rowdy revelers already enjoy interactive screenings of the flick, avid Roomies can now partake in its infamously uncomfortable and painful onscreen interactions in astounding 8-bit glory. Tom Fulp and Jeff Bandelin of Newgrounds crafted the 'Maniac Mansion'-style throwback masterpiece, and infused numerous references to the original film's most notorious lines and scenes, as well as its absurd $7 million bankroll. (NSFW advisory: It features shocking full-frontal 8-bit nudity!)

While creative and incredibly geeky 8-bit homages to film and TV abound, this one will hopefully inspire a movement of playable recreations. We have our fingers crossed for everyone's favorite political activist stoner bowler.
