Blind Date 1984 R, 99 min. Genre: Horror / Thriller aka: Deadly Seduction
Director: Nico Mastorakis Cast: Joseph Bottoms, Kirstie Alley, James Daughton, Lana Clarkson, Keir Dullea, Charles Nicklin, Marina Sirtis, Michael Howe, Gerard Kelly, Gerry Sundquist, Valeria Golino
Filmed in Athens, Greece, this low-budget slasher film is centered on Jonathon (Joseph Bottoms) who has become blind, though the doctors can find no physical reason. He is fitted with an electronic camera-like device that provides some sight–just in time to witness a murder. Wanting to prove he can do it (apparently), he sets out to track down the crazed killer who specializes in carving up scantily dressed women. Yuck. Watch for the soon-to-be the empath counselor on "Star Trek: The Next Generation"–Marina Sirtis.
