Synopsis
Armed terrorists, led by a super android, take over a high rise hospital with the president's daughter as hostage. The FBI gets the hospital architect out of cryogenic prison and desperately asks for his help.
Production
Project Shadowchaser was shot at Pinewood Studios. Most of the set was reused from Alien 3. This is in no way connected to the writer Robert Standish.
Notability
The film was notable by the reunion of Martin Kove and Meg Foster, who previously worked together on the first season of Cagney & Lacey as Detectives Victor Isbecki and Christine Cagney, respectively, until Foster was replaced by Sharon Gless for the remainder of the series.
Release
The film was released on videocassette in the summer of 1992 by Prism Pictures. Prior to August 4, 2015, the film had never been released onto region 1 DVD, until Echo Bridge Home Entertainment acquired the rights and released it through the Termination Collection, bundled with 4 additional movies as well. It had also popped up through AT&T U-Verse's screen pack, also under license from Echo Bridge.
