Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Sometimes you get the chance to clap eyes on a little cracker of a "B" movie that is better than most "A" releases. This one is as much fun as UNIVERSAL SOLDIER, though obviously put together om a much lower budget.The titular project has scientists developing a super soldier android named Romulus, who has muscles in places that most of us do not even have places. He is big, bad, blonde, and on a rampage after escaping from the research facility where he was created.Cut to a quiet evening in a hospital where two emergency cases are admitted, and all hell breaks loose when then patients and their orderlies start to shoot everyone in sight. The intruders turn out to be terrorists who intend to take hostage the President's daughter, who is being treated in the hospital.The FBI nips along to a nearby cryogenics laboratory to thaw out the architect who designed the hospital building to help them find a secret way in. Unfortunately a wrong man is defrosted: a football player who was put on ice for an accidental homicide. He becomes the unwilling hero of the movie, which unfurls with all the thud and blunder of DIE HARD meets THE TERMINATOR.The action scenes are well staged and the plot has some surprises. If you are after a film pulsating with continuous action, then this is definitely one worth chasing...

As someone else has stated, this is a low budget cross between Terminator and Die Hard only without the massive appeal of either.Its hard to believe the motive for hijacking a hospital in order to kidnap the president's daughter. Especially in one part where there is an opportunity to kidnap the president himself, the terrorists prefer to continue using the daughter instead.... yeah, she'll be worth more...Martin Kove is cheesy but okay. Meg Foster's part seems like it was originally written with a teenage girl in mind. Frank Zagarino is amusing as the robot. And the rest of the cast go through the motions.Another thing, this movie probably has the worst example of movie editing I've ever seen. In one scene, the cyborg seemingly has the two main characters trapped in the overhead vents, the next, the two leads are running away, without any explanation on how they escaped! There's other confusing scenes but if you watch the movie you'll see for yourself.One of Kove's last lines in the picture reminds me of Eddie Murphy's character in Bowfinger when he yells out 'Got you, suckers!' I got a laugh out of that.It kills some time but don't expect to get anything out of it.

Die Hard meets The Terminator in this cheaply made actioner which features Kove as a the only man who thwart a terrorist cyborg as well as save the president's daughter in this very bad actioner. Inept and chintzy looking, Shadowchaser is about as bad as they come. Even Kove seems annoyed with the production. Followed by two sequels

If you watch Project: Shadowchaser, you have to keep in mind that it was shot on less than a million dollars. Remember that, and you could enjoy it. At times the script is unbelievably bad, although there are a couple of good lines. Although it was a complete rip-off of Die Hard with some tones of The Terminator built in, and a plot with more holes than a sponge, Project: Shadowchaser delivered some good, brainless entertainment.The music was great, the best in a movie with this small of a budget for quite awhile, and the direction was fast and peppy, but one action sequence (POSSIBLE SPOILER: Romulus chasing Sarah and DeSilva) was awful.+ (GOOD THINGS) 1.) The music 2.) The ability to make it look big-budget 3.) The direction 4.) The special effects 5.) Frank Zagarino's performance(BAD THINGS) 1.) The script 2.) The plot line (Have we seen this before?) 3.) The believability
TOTAL: 5/10
