The cyberpunk action RPG prequel Deus Ex: Human Revolution was one of my favorite video games of the past handful of years, and is one that fans of first-person games with a mix of both shooter and stealth elements should play immediately if they have not already.

A movie adaptation of the game is currently in the works from the duo behind the horror flick Sinister, Scott Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill, but that’s not stopping fans from making their own live-action take on the game.

Filmmaker Moe Charif directed and stars in this new 12-minute short based on the game, which is based on Human Revolution‘s story. You can check it out below.

We found out in July that CBS Films was developing a movie based on the hit Eidos and Square Enix video game, Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Now comes word that the studio has brought in the team behind the recent horror movie hit Sinister to bring the movie to life. Scott Derrickson will direct, as well as write the script along with C. Robert Cargill, who’s better known to some as Massawyrm from Ain’t It Cool News.

Michael Fassbender surprised everybody yesterday by attaching himself to star in and produce a film based on the Assassin’s Creed video game series. Though video game adaptations don’t fare to well at the box office or with critics, the fact that Fassbender will be starring in and producing makes for a promising start for the Assassin’s Creed film.

But this isn’t the only bit of video game adaptation news that’s floating around the wire. CBS Films is now getting into the act by snagging the rights to Deus Ex: Human Revolution. The game centers on Adam Jensen, whose body is modified by cybernetic devices that enhances physical skills and extra-sensory powers, searches for clues behind an attack on his biotech company.
