In 1991, FASA released a promotional VHS tape to comic/hobby shops across the United States. The video contained an ultra-low-budget short film entitled "Shadowrun: A Night's Work". To date it is the only known "official" Shadowrun film ever produced. It's tacky, slow-moving, and poorly acted -- but anyone who's a fan of Shadowrun will realize how valuable a find this recording is. Readers of the novels and Shadowrun history buffs will be thrilled to see fan-favorite Sally Tsu, elven mage and former Yakuza enforcer, in her first and only on-screen appearance.

Very few people even know this movie exists, let alone have seen it. When I first heard wind of it, I scoured Google in search of anything related to the movie...screenshots, audio snippets, maybe even a synopsis...and came up blank. But now the #S-Run Shadowrun Community is proud to bring it to fans everywhere!

Go to www.s-run.com to download this small piece of Shadowrun history. You can also find other Shadowrun fan films there -- with English subtitling courtesy of #S-Run. Stay tuned for more flicks coming...including "Todesvision" and "Cat & M.I.C.E", with subtitling work currently underway on both fan films.

Special thanks to Bjoern Fuhrmeister, who is responsible for the DVD transfer of this rarest-of-rare Shadowrun film.
