That Rutger Hauer film was "Blind Fury" and he also was in a sequel. The blind swordsman idea was adapted from Shintaro Katsu's "Zatoichi" series of films from Japan (don't ask me to name them; there were more than two dozen).Say AudioHead, sounds like you're a martial arts/action film fan. Do yourself a favor and try to see a Hong Kong action film called "The Blade" (not the Wesley Snipes' vampire film). It is an epic pre-modern period piece with a lot of elements strangely familiar to the Star Wars Trilogy. It's directed by Tsui Hark (who also makes turkeys with Van Damme like "Double Team" and "Knock Off"), with spectacular swordfighting choreography and cinematography (the ending battle is always astonishing and thrilling to me, even after 50+ viewings and a lot of tape rewinding). Tai Seng distributes the movie in the USA, but I've also seen it on BRAVO on cable.
