Though it was essentially a non-factor in pop culture upon its released in 1994, The Shawshank Redemption benefited tremendously from repeat plays on cable, eventually becoming IMDb's highest rated movie of all time. (Yep, it's currently beating the first two Godfather movies for the number one spot.)

Cinefix has given the movie the 8-Bit Cinema treatment, and as always, it's really cool to see classic movies in this form. Check it out below. Get busy livin', or get busy dyin'.
