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

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.
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.

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.
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.
