Viewing Notes

This is one I somehow missed in the 80s and was expecting a “so bad it’s good” type of flick. However, BLIND FURY is a pretty solid 80s action flick!

Sure, there’s some bad mullets, a soundtrack composed on a Casio keyboard and some awkward moments, but Rutger Hauer is awesome as an Americanized Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman.

I had a lot of fun with this one!
