His name is Deth. He hunts Trancers in 2 centuries...

Welcome to Angel City 2247. Trooper Jack Deth (Tim Thomerson) is wiping out the best disciples of Whistler, who used his psychic power to ‘trance’ those with inferior minds, forcing them to follow his evil plan to control the city. Whistler escapes to the twentieth century and Jack is sent back in time to stop him, inhabiting the body of his ancestor in L.A. However, Whistler’s ancestor is a police detective, and he’s trancing people in Los Angeles. With the help of a strong-willed punk girl Lena (Helen Hunt) he must find and protect Hap Ashby and confront Whistler and his trancers.
