If you're Ken Block (http://autoblog.com/tag/ken block) and you feel the need to top your previous and ridiculously popular Gymkhana (http://autoblog.com/tag/gymkhana) videos with a fourth installment, what do you do? Why, turn to Hollywood, of course. For Gymkhana 4, Block and his DC Shoes (http://autoblog.com/tag/dc shoes) crew travel to the Universal Studios lot, and, as such, you'll see plenty of classic movie props in this film.

Let's see... we've got Back to the Future, Jaws, Zombieland and Slumdog Millionaire for starters, along with a couple of gorillas and Segways. But it's the automotive action you're most interested in, right? And in that case, we've got more good news for you: Block's sideways smokey action in back in full effect, and this time, he crashes through buildings, dodges animatronic sharks and pirouettes around the guys from Epic Meal Time (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/30/video-how-to-build-your-very-own-meat-car/).

All in, you'll find just over nine minutes of automotive hoonage starring Block's Ford Fiesta Hybrid Function Hoon Vehicle (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/07/25/ken-block-unveils-new-multi-hoonable-ford-fiesta-hfhv/), punctuated by movie references and product placement along with plenty of special effects and insane camera angles. See it all for yourself right after the break.
