Gosh! It's been a while since I last saw this made-for-t.v. movie, so I'll give it the old college try with the review. Journeyman actor extraordinaire Robert Urich stars in an unusual role. Urich's usually casted as a smarmy cop or as the sensitive everyday man in extraordinary situations. But this time he's in the title role as a blind man whose friends and collegues are turning up dead around him. He goes from bystander to ameteur sleuth to prey. Trouble is, he's blind. Makes for a nice twist on the whodunnit routine. Ron Perlman and Lisa Eilbacher are okay as a couple of Urich's close friends who may be next on the killer's hit list. The most impressive thing I remember about Blind Man's Bluff was its unusually good production values (for a t.v. movie). I believe it was shot in and around Vancouver, British Columbia (a lovely city you don't see everyday). And the music was good too. But it was a made-for-t.v. flick, and I remember being bored with the pacing of the story and the number of cannon fodder extras. All in all, I thought it was an above average, but not superior, whodunnit.
Viewer Reviews
A blind professor's (Robert Urich) friends are being murdered. His ex-girlfriend (Lisa Eilbacher), now engaged to his best friend (Ron Perlman), wants to rekindle their romance. His therapist (Patricia Clarkson), for whom he has non-professional feelings, begins to reciprocate. Yes, it's a murder mystery with soap opera entanglements but it's a slightly better than average TV movie which makes for decent viewing on an order in dinner bad weather day.
Ron Perlman and Robert Urich have really nice buddy screen chemistry.
