Was really looking forward to see this movie.. so disappointed! Since when do you lose all facial expressions just because your blind.. felt like watching a statue the hole movie. And they forgot big details.

I had not heard about the 2019 movie "Blind" from writer Joe Knetter and director Marcel Walz before now late in 2020 when I sat down to watch it. I glanced over the synopsis and it seemed interesting enough, and the movie's cover also helped win me over.

So I sat down to watch it, and turns out that while the movie definitely was watchable, it just wasn't a fulfilling movie. I feel like director Marcel Walz squandered so much potential, and the movie ended up being somewhat as a less than mediocre experience. This wasn't an outstanding movie experience.

I will say that the movie was nicely enough acted out, and lead actress Sarah French definitely carried the movie quite well with her performance.

One thing that puzzled me was the text to voice modulator, how quick it was to spit out full sentences, even if Luke (played Tyler Gallant) wasn't really typing or pressing much, that just made no sense to me.

And then there was the thing with the slasher or the madman in the movie. That was just a very anti-climatic villain to have in the movie. There were so many other ways that writer Joe Knetter could have managed to put together a more devious and memorable bad guy.

Storywise, then "Blind" was pretty straight forward, but don't go expecting a rollercoaster of thrills and excitement, because then you will be sorely disappointed.

All in all, while the movie is watchable, it was not overly enjoyable or entertaining. My rating of "Blind" lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars. There are far better horror movies out there that is centered around a blind protagonist.

This really is poorly made garbage. I'll grant that the masked stalker is somewhat creepy but that's all that can be said in a positive light for this movie. It exudes an air of cheapness and the interminable scenes set to music are by far the worst scenes I've seen in years. The songs are absolutely insipid, cookie-cutter pop music tripe like something you'd get on a cd sampler with your newly purchased knockoff brand stereo system...as performed by knockoff musicians who whine rather than sing.

A blind actress staying in an isolated Hollywood Hills house is stalked by a psycho wearing a mask who kills anyone that gets close to her.

That sounds like a fun premise, doesn't it? Unfortunately, Blind might have what it takes in the technical department (the lighting, editing, sound, etc. Are all top notch), but it lacks a lot in the script department.

Even at under 90 minutes, Blind drags after the initial setup is out of the way and we're treated to scene after scene of our heroine walking around the house by herself as her stalker watches her from outside, eventually getting inside, and then doing the same thing. After 3 or 4 instances of this happening, it gets stale and we stop caring if her life is on the line or not.

I wouold say that this low budget horror movie has its heart in the right place (no offense to the wrong or left place). But it also has quite a few issues that might or might not bother you while you watch it. The pacing of the movie is one of them, the predictability the other one. And the ending will either remedy most of those things or it will just feel like an add on.

The deleted scenes contain a couple of things that would have made certain scenes better. It is nice to see a Horror legend like Caroline Williams, even more so by tackling something she probably isn't that familiar with. The gimmick with the vision and sound works only to a degree and is more an obstacle overall unfortunately. Still I have seen worse movies, even if this drags a lot and feels like it is too long while the running time does not suggest it

I would rather watch lord of the ring 100 times all over again than this....what a waste of time...love creepy movies and this sort of stuff, but this is just out of order.

I was looking forward to something in this movie that never ever came. Damn! Such a disappointment...don't waste your time!!

This is an incredibly well acted movie. It kept me at the end of my chair. Plus it had some truly tingling moments

This is a really good indie horror movie. Movie watchers in the age of Marvel and streaming are impatient with unrealistic expectations. This isn't filled with CGI but is a solid low budget horror movie that would have been highly praised by movie watchers two decades ago. Classic masked killer. Can't wait to watch the sequel.

This has to be one the worst movies I have ever seen in my entire life. And I usually try not to rate 1 to movies because of the effort; but this one earned it easily. The movie was 88 minutes long and I finished it in 10 minutes on fast forward and I still got the whole story.

Acting; bad Story; bad Cinematography; bad Suspense; none.

Avoid at all costs.

I just don't understand the part of when a glass was dropped on the floor and the dramatization of going back and forth to the piece that was left on the floor and then she finally stepping on it. It had no relevance to the movie as it didn't even show her injured after that or walking funny.

Horrible stupid movie junk dumb why somebody give them 10

Terrible acting. Terrible terrible terrible. Can't say it too much. Just don't waste your time!!

This suspenseful film keeps you guessing who the killer is. Lead characters all interesting. Tyler Gallant gives a subdued performance yet gives us so much. Wonderful script. Wonderfully directed by Marcel Walz. Check out his previous film Blood Fest...not for the squeamish. lol

I'd love to really praise this film, which I saw about 3 weeks ago at Romford Film Festival, but i feel it really went for style over plot, if it had taken an eye off the visuals and put more into the plot it would have been ideal.

Having seen Blood Feast at Frightfest some years ago, its clear the filmmaker has much improved, its pacing and direction of actors has massively improved.

Bind has a place in world, but I feel if there is going to be a Blind 2 they need to focus more on plot than visuals.

A blind actress gets stalked by someone wearing a creepy mask in her secluded home far up in the hills of Hollywood.

Blind obviously takes a few cues from Wait Until Dark with its blind leading lady being menaced by a psycho and many of the stalk scenes featuring the masked killer peering into the heroine's full length glass doors call to mind Halloween. Despite a decent visual style and somewhat higher than usual production values, the story isn't very gripping and some of the acting is so bad it pulls you out of the film when it should be drawing you in. The killer is also such a blank mystery that you wonder what his problem is. Even Michael Myers had some past or history. The killer does have a striking mask at the very least.

I think the ending is missing. Like when you think the survival Part starts and you get to know the villains backstory the movie suddently ends.

On a visual level, Blind is next to perfect. There are great production values (the Hollywood Hills house is beautiful), the filmmaking team seems to know their way around a camera, and it's filled with bright, eye-popping color.

Unfortunately, that's where the praise for this film will end. The script is a mess and the acting isn't much better although it's nice seeing Caroline Williams from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 again and she does ok with what she's given. There are too many unanswered questions that kept taking me out of the film. The story keeps crawling to a halt to give us scene after scene of this creepy guy in a mask (the mask is one of the other high points of the film) watching the lead character through her windows for what seems like an eternity.
