 Blind Date (1984) – Nico Mastarakis.

Handsome young Ad executive Jon Ratcliff (Joseph Bottoms), blinded from a head injury, is treated by Keir Dullea, who fits him with a sonar gizmo that partially returns his sight. Utilizing his staggered Tron-Vision Jon continues his furtive observation of his beautiful model ex-lover (Lana Clarkson), but accidentally 'sees' the sadistic scalpel slasher dispatch one of his many victims! This stylish techno-Giallo has a lively score, compelling performances, and an especially lovely turn from the ravishing Kirstie Alley. This vibrantly neon-hued, thrillingly lurid, crimson-splashed 80s slasher is an unfairly neglected Athenian Giallo from acclaimed exploitation master Mastorakis! Expect plentiful T & A, groovy Tron-vision, lavish picture postcard scenery, bloody kills, and a terrifically exciting climax!
