Synopsis
Watch online on iFILM: Shadow Conspiracy (1997), a political chase thriller from George P. Cosmatos, the director behind Tombstone. The hook is lean and old-fashioned — one man, a twelve-hour clock, and a capital city that suddenly wants him dead.
Bobby Bishop (Charlie Sheen) advises the President of the United States. A chance run-in with an old friend on the sidewalk goes wrong fast: the man whispers about a plot inside the White House and is shot dead seconds later. Bishop is now the only person who knows, which makes him the next target. He can't tell ally from setup — not even the colleague played by Linda Hamilton. Donald Sutherland, Stephen Lang, and Sam Waterston as the President round out the cast.
Cosmatos keeps the foot down: rooftops, phone booths, gunfire, a ticking deadline. The plot bends logic more than once, but as a late-night '90s conspiracy ride it does the job. Good for anyone craving the paranoid Beltway thrillers of that decade. Stream Shadow Conspiracy (1997) online on iFILM.
