How old is the movie? Maybe
"Cyborg 2087 (1966)?

Would have been around very late 70's or 1980 onwards - One scene is set in a night club and the killer lets loose with an Auto killing quite a few revellers / also set around christmas - new year

No time travelling, but anyway, almost the same story. “American Cyborg: Steel Warrior” 1993

Cheers but this one was many years earlier - early 80's i think

What about “Cyborg 2087” (see above)?

No it was defineitely set in the prsent tim (1980's) i an town - plot was so clsoe the termimantor but not sure if it was a precursor or a direct rip off

hands of steel?

It sounds close but the one im looking for is set in a town - possibly los angeles and the android is sent to kill a woman (sarah connor style)

May be Trancers (1984)?

No from wot I can remember the plot woz more identical to the 1st terminator film - I think the soldier from the future sent to save the girl even ended up being the father of her child

Time Cop?

wouldn’t happen to be this would it?

It’s obviously not the “Demon with a Glass hand” episode of The Outer Limits or “Soldier” also from The Outer Limits. Both of those were written by Harlan Ellison and both were sighted in his successful lawsuit against James Cameron, claiming that Cameron ripped them off to create The Terminator.
