Mortal Kombat Fatalities Get the Paper Treatment

Mortal Kombat’s fatalities are already kind of cartoonish and over-the-top, but even more so when recreated with paper and stop-motion animation. The highlight reel was created by Eric Power and is part of a longer video that reflects on the original Mortal Kombat for Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo. I’d love to see some other Mortal Kombat games get paper fatalities, because the first game’s finishing moves were pretty tame in retrospect. But that probably makes them easier to recreate as well. Actually, why not a full-on paper Mortal Kombat? It worked for Mario. [Ericpowerup via Kotaku]
