Night of the Running Man

In the neon‑washed streets of Las Vegas, a city that never truly sleeps, a lone cab driver navigates a world of restless travelers and whispered deals. Jerry Logan is a modest, sharp‑witted man who knows the back‑alleys and late‑night diners better than most tourists know the Strip. His routine routes are a quiet rhythm that keeps him grounded, even as the desert heat and the glittering lights conspire to make every night feel like a gamble.

One ordinary shift turns extraordinary when a nervous passenger slips an envelope into the cab’s hidden compartment and vanishes under sudden, violent circumstances. Unaware of what he’s carrying, Logan discovers a fortune tucked away in his own vehicle, an unexpected windfall that shatters the static of his daily grind. The discovery thrusts him into a shadowy realm where fortune and danger are inextricably linked, and the ordinary world of fare meters and traffic signals gives way to a pulse‑pounding race against time.

From the moment the cash is found, a relentless hunter emerges. David Eckhart, a professional hitman with an almost clinical dedication to his craft, begins to track Logan’s every move, intent on retrieving what was taken and silencing any witnesses. The city’s glittering façade becomes a maze of alleyways, desert highways, and cramped airport terminals, each step echoing with the tension of a cat‑and‑mouse game. As Logan tries to stay one heartbeat ahead, the film balances the gritty realism of a cab driver’s life with the high‑octane suspense of a thriller, leaving the audience perched on the edge of an ever‑tightening knot of intrigue.
