I love this movie so much

Brilliant and touching

Awesome Movie

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Good cast. Very well acted. GREAT scenery. And although my knowledge of such things is a bit limited, the Navajo beliefs were portrayed accurately. What's not to like?Here you have a big city homicide cop whose life is in a shambles and whose wife is leaving him. He wants to quit, but his boss sends him on a "simple" prisoner retrieval.Turns out the prisoner is a shape-shifter, escapes from the big city cop (Scott Glenn), and the ensuing search for the prisoner (Benjamin Bratt) brings the lead tracker (Angela Alverado) and cop together for an interesting and tense adventure.Some of the dialog in the ending scenes was a bit cliché and tedious, but it did not detract from the overall enjoyment I had of the movie.I liked it well enough, I may watch it a 2nd time in the future.jonesey65244

Scott Glenn does a fine job in his portrayal of a burnt out big city cop who is sent out to the Reservation to bring in a fugitive Navajo Indian for trial. It's supposed to offer him an easy assignment and some time to get himself back together. Instead, it turns out to be a nightmarish trip into the dark world of Navajo witchcraft, with Benjamin Bratt disturbingly menacing as the evil fugitive "Wolf." Viewers who may know a bit about Navajo culture, or who have read the Navajo Tribal Police mysteries by Tony Hillerman will recognize the "Skinwalker" scenario depicted in this film, and will find it easier to follow. In summary, an above average film, with crisp location filming, and good performances all around.

Shadowhunter is pretty good film. I am surprised with a story like this and with stars such as Scott Glenn and Benjamin Bratt that the film seems to be little known and/or very underrated. The film is quite different though it maybe similar like the film that came years after this called The Missing. Glenn is good as the good guy and Bratt is plays his killer character very good! He has a very unique laugh and is unique to begin with! Angela Alvarado played her part very well! It was cool that Tim Sampson,Lee de Broux, and Robert Beltran were in the film. The action is good. Its good and interesting movie. I really like the Native Americans Indians in it. The sky views in the film very neat! The film has some messages in it. Anyway if you like the cast mentioned above and want to see a very different movie watch Shadowhunter!

Scott Glenn plays a big city cop suffering from major burn-out, both personally and professionally. He is sent to an Indian reservation in Arizona to extradite a serial killer with psychic powers. The killer escapes, but is able to remain psychically connected with Glenn, who accompanies the reservation police in their attempt to recapture the fugitive. Sinking into ever deepening depression Glenn is salvaged by a lady tracker, played by Angela Alvarado, and eventually finds redemption and romance with her. This is one of Scott Glenn's finest roles as well as being a tightly wound suspense thriller that will keep the viewer on the edge of their seat.
