*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Possible spoiler warning:

Blind Vengeance is probably one of the worst movies ever made. Granted, what was I expecting when I bought the DVD for $5 off a rack also carrying old Bela Lugosi double-features for $5? I suppose I was fooled by the cover: it had fire, and katanas, and some really angry looking guys. I don't remember any fire or katanas in the movie, although I think the bad guy might have been a little angry.

The plot? The bad dude, Tony Minelli (played by Carl Vanmeter) is jealous of Ricky Dirks (Rod Kei), and the fact that their sensei always favoured him more. Something like that. Anyway, Minelli's students are constantly harassing Dirks' students, and kicking their butts. I'm guessing this because Minelli is generally very angry, while Dirks could teach Jesus a thing or two about not resorting to violence. Most of the movie is this, until Dirks' finally decides to meet Minelli in the ring.

Whats wrong with this movie? Well, its boring, the acting sucks, and the action sucks (come on, how can you have an action movie where the good dude, a martial arts expert, refuses to hurt anyone?). Sure, I bought it for $5, but I've bought more $5 movies that were way better than this. Hell, I have $2.50 movies that were better than this.

Now, onto the final part of my "this movie sucks" rant: Only two of the credited cast and crew listed on IMDb have had any real movie career outside of Blind Vengeance. The director, Stephen Lieb, hasn't worked on a movie since 1996. Carl Vanmeter got to play "Thug #3" in a movie four years after this. Rod Kei made a few more movies before realizing that Blind Vengeance, the worst movie in the universe would haunt him forever. Now, if I destroy my copy, and anyone who was in the movie agrees to deny it was ever made, we can pretend this movie never existed, and I would be much happier.

Do not watch this movie, unless you want to spend 80 minutes learning how not to make an action film.

1/10.
