Review of Blind Fury (1989) by Daniel V — 04 Jan 2013

I remember seeing this in the theater, loving and it becoming constant rental for the next couple of years. When I was 12 years old movies like this were like crack, I couldn't get enough to the point that the VHS tapes were wearing out.

Rutger Hauer has been on my radar since Blade Runner and Ladyhawke, two of my faves in each genre. Watching him play a blind swordsman who takes on the Reno Mafia is still pure 80's gold. May have come out in the last year of that decade but from it's synthed and guitar infused score to it;s memorable one liners, it's 80's to the bone.

Still a fun watch.
