Suggestive of another stalk-and-slash killer, the Shadowman actually takes a more mythical/spiritual turn as a rarely-present character, but results in a rather dreary film. The pacing is deadly slow - there is not a lot of interest in watching people walk across the room to deliver a line - the acting runs from low-key to no-key, and there is little along the way that really engages the viewer. This is one of those movies where the intention is there, but the execution lets it down in pretty much every way..
