Name of movie?

Question

I watched a movie in the early nineties during the day; it was on one of the local channels (like cbs, abc, fox, nbc…) I think it was a Saturday movie. I’m guessing the movie was made somewhere between 1988-1994. I only remember a few scenes…First of all there was a barn and a few men unleashed this entity that took over someone’s body. The entity moved from one person to another. A man was trying to destroy this demonic thing as it traveled from one body to the next. I remember one scene where the entity was inside a woman who was in a park and the man that was tracking the entity tackled the woman, in the meanwhile the entity went into a little boy, and the woman came to senses with this man on top of her, it was an odd situation for the man. Another scene I remember was the entity entered a man in a busy train/subway station and the man lost track of the demon. I’ve been trying to figure out what this movie is for like 10 years! I hope someone can help me figure this out.

Not the movie "Fallen" with Denzel Washington, this movie was made before that.

Answer 1

Sorry...

Answer 2

Could it be "Shocker?" I found the plot summary on www.imdb.com. What you said reminded me of Denzel Washington's "Fallen," and that lead me to "Shocker." It's from 1989.

A murderous TV repairman, Horace Pinker (Mitch Pileggi) is killing people in a small town left, right and center. He eventually finds the home of Lt. Parker (Michael Murphy), who is investigating his crimes, and savagely murders Parker's wife, son and daughter. His other son, Jonathan (Peter Berg) has a strange connection to Pinker through his dreams, and he directs his father to Pinker's business, where a small group of officers enter. Pinker escapes in a horrific spree, killing four officers and then targeting Jonathan's girlfriend, Alison. Another dream leads Jonathan and his dad to a residence where they catch Pinker in in the act of kidnapping. Pinker is arrested after a fight with Jonathan and sentenced to die in the electric chair. When executed, Pinker - who supposedly had given his soul to the devil in exchange for the power to come back as an energy source - takes over people's bodies and continues committing murders, until Jonathan devises a plan to bring Pinker into the real world, and then cut off his power source...

Answer 3

The movie is called Fallen....it has Denzel Washington and John Goodman too, I think.
