Welcome back to your favorite film podcast where we reexamine some of the most notorious movie bombs of all time. Oh boy, do we have a doozy for you this week…I promise, you won’t SEE this one coming. On this week’s show, we welcome Josh from The VHS Files podcast to discuss 1989/1990’s action, comedy - Blind Fury. Loosely based on the 17th film from a classic Japanese franchise, Blind Fury stars the legendary Rutger Hauer as a blind, sword-wielding veteran helping a young boy reunite with his father. Oh yeah…..freaking Sho Kosugi shows up to deliver some flippy Ninja action at the end. Luckily, Rutger can’t see what he’s up against (ok, last bad pun…promise).Timestamps:Intro - (0:35)Remakes of Japanese Samurai and Ronin films - (05:39)Box Office and Critical Response - (13:25)Behind of the Camera - (17:20)In Front of the Camera - (25:03)Production and Development - (34:56)Discussion of Blind Fury - (37:08)Is it a bomb? - (86:23)Discussion of Zatoichi Challenged - (88:20)Listener Feedback - (107:15)Outro - (134:50) Blind Fury is directed by Phillip Noyce and stars Rutger Hauer, Terrance (Terry) O’Quinn, Lisa Blount, Randall “Tex” Cobb, Noble Willingham, Brandon Call, Meg Foster, and Nick Cassavetes.Please sure to check out The VHS Files wherever you get you podcasts and subscribe to their YouTube channel - The VHS Files YouTube.If you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com.
