Blind Rage (1978) | Fred Williamson Kung Fu

Blind Rage is a blaxploitation martial arts film from 1978 starring the former football star Fred Williamson, Tony Ferrer, Leo Fong and D'Urville Martin, about 5 blind martial artists pulling off a bank robbery in The Philippines.
Contrary to indications in the film's promotional material, Fred Williamson's part in the film was minuscule. Reprising his Jesse Crowder role, he appeared in the last ten minutes of the film.[

I went back on movies I haven't seen from the pod and ended up here. I haven't laughed so hard in a movie for a while, that was awesome!

[@dinkyvision]

Saw this as a double feature at the New Beverly (with The One Armed Executioner). It was glorious.

[@MassGradingTeacher]

Also brought here by Video Archives pod. The beginning of this movie (song, font, etc. ) almost felt like the intro to a Tarantino movie.

THIS MOVIE IS SPECTACULAR. I showed my this to my Mom(in her 60’s) and she was FLOORED. Highly recommend

[@katiegrundle9900]

these blind cats can do anything. best movie line of all time

[@indiabharat5005]

See its copy movie aankhein Bollywood its also nice

[@Riogi]

Any movie starring Fred Williamson, even for 10 minutes, is a must-see for me. He is without a doubt one of the most beautiful men I have ever seen. I wish all the best to him and his loved ones. :).

[@mikevickphi]

The part where the people died in the gas ⛽️ truck was brutal they really paid the price for their criminal behavior.

[@joemachol.3968]

The movie was really good then when Fred enters he shows you why he's the Hammer.

[@joemachol.3968]

Love this Film. 2 of my favorites are in it, The Hammer & Leo Fong. Loved the plot, the fight scenes & the music.

[@PrivateEyePictures]

Quentin, Roger and Gala led me here. After watching, I can say I'm not as enthusiastic as they all were. But it's an amusing distraction.

[@robertodelosangeles3247]

Same here. The guys from the New Beverly and the Pure Cinema podcast also repeatedly sing it’s praises. I guess they can all justify their hype because they’ve had the benefit of seeing it on the big screen with an audience hootin’ and hollerin’, which really changes the whole experience. The acting, dialogue, and dubbing is so absurdly bad, that it really is a pretty fun watch though…

[@alwelch344]

i saw this in the movies was playing with dual of the iron fist very classic this should have a remake . i am very happy to see it again thank you for posting ...also great channel..and they call me wilbur...

[@DoctorRazzArea4]

What is Fred holding at the end? I can't figure it out.

[@AntwhaleNearfar]

That final fight on the roof was so anticlimactic.

[@graemesmith6721]

I sure hope there was nobody in that plane they crashed into. Why was there gasoline in that tanker truck anyway? And that attempted rape sure came out of nowhere and went nowhere. I don't know why they even included it in the movie. The theme music reminded me of "The Windmills of Your Mind" from The Thomas Crown Affair, another heist flick. And apparently, Fred Williamson doesn't take his cigar out even when he's running after a suspect. You'd think that would slow him down, since he's not getting as much oxygen. Ah well, he's the Hammer, not an ordinary mortal. He also does a nice Bruce Lee impression at the end. Note: when you're trying to build tension and suspense at the climax of your movie, it's probably best not to have a character utter the line, "It's going down at the International House of Pancakes." That had me laughing my ass off, which I'm pretty sure was not the filmmakers' intent.

These movies we're very insightful and inspiring to me they were important in helping me get on track and by on track I mean I began to think that the white man was minimizing the efforts of you and I because they were really afraid to give fair shake's because they knew that the only that was being served at the dinner table for them was CROW! THEY COULD NEVER BE US AND THEY KNOW IT. RECESSIVE, DEPRESSIVE, AND HOPELESSLY DIM- WITTED, SUBJECT TO HAVE THE ITCH IRONBOARD BACKSIDE WHITE CAVE DWELLING SNITCH.

@King ZERO There's More Black men marrying and cohabitating with white women than Black women marrying and cohabitating with white men. You're either telling a LIE or just ignorant of the FACTS 💯

[@tekharthazenyatta2310]

These films taught me that low budget revenge-type films could be poorly acted but still have a great sense of humor and be highly entertaining, even while embracing racial stereotypes without passing judgment, specifically without attributing good and evil with one race or another. You could benefit from a few of those lessons in truth.

[@bhastinesmith9026]

Damn that bank robbery didn't work out good at all 🇯🇲🇺🇸😤😭

[@lsddemon7228]

This movie is awesome!!!!!!

[@misfit2022]

It says Fred Williamson in the title and he does make a late appearance by which I mean late. This is a very low budget heist film with an unusual premise but despite the low quality I did find myself watching it if only to critique some of the more irrational parts of the plot.

[@frederickawilkinson628]

He Came In When The Movie Was Almost Over!!!!

[@redwandennaoui4508]

I’m a fan of Fred Williamson but this movie is ridiculous, with so many silly scenes, gangsters give blind men money in stacks, could be one dollar notes.. , endless silly comments that don’t make sense

[@larryhashaway5543]

Fred make good move I like all of his movie

[@thakozhani]

eye feel the later 70's films were more $$$ driven therefore actually becoming of more exploitive narritives especially of black men becoming more buffoonish and less heroic..im sorry but the acting in this makes films like Dolemite seem academy award winning..
