Blind Fury is a 1989 American action comedy film directed by Phillip Noyce and starring Rutger Hauer, Terry O'Quinn, Lisa Blount, Randall "Tex" Cobb, and Noble Willingham.

[3] The film follows Nick Parker (Hauer), a blind, sword-wielding Vietnam War veteran, who returns to the United States and befriends the son of an old friend.

After premiering in West Germany, Blind Fury was released in the United States by Tri-Star Pictures on August 17, 1989.

Rescued by local villagers, he recovers his health and, though he remains blind, was trained to master his other senses and be an expert swordsman.

Nick stops them; the officers are killed, Billy is knocked unconscious, but MacCready's henchman Slag mortally wounds Lynn before he escapes.

After escaping yet another attempted kidnapping by MacCready's men, Annie suggests they hide out at the home of her friend Colleen.

As Slag reaches for his gun, Nick grabs hold of the assassin's sword and slashes him, cutting him in half and causing him to fall out of a window.

Nick smiles or sheds a tear, puts on his sunglasses while holding Billy's toy dinosaur with left arm in a sling, and walks off into the distance.

In preparation for the role, Hauer spent one-month training Lynn Manning, a blind Paralympian judoka whose first words to him were "I don't get confused about what I see.

"[6] Hauer's reverse-gripped cane sword, modeled on Zatoichi's signature shikomizue, was created by Tim Huchthausen.

Filming took place around the Midwestern United States, mainly in Sealy and Houston, Texas, and in Reno, Nevada; where the cast and crew underwent humid weather conditions.

[7] Reviewer Ian Jane of DVD Talk wrote, "Hauer does a commendable job in the lead and is reasonably convincing as a blind man.
