Blind Date plot
"You won't be coming home alone."
A man (Jonathon Ratcliff) goes blind thinking about his missing girlfriend, but the doctors can't figure out what's wrong with his eyes. They provide him with an experimental device that allows him to see again using a computer interface and brain electrodes. Meanwhile, a taxi driver takes young women to their home, where he murders them in cold blood. The paths of both men inevitably converge and it is up to the blind man to stop the psychopath.

The idea that allows the protagonist, Ratcliff, to see in a certain way using a computer interface and brain electrodes is original. Its execution is amusing, as Ratcliff no longer sees details or colors, but rather defined lines and silhouettes. This leads him to become involved with a serial killer, whom he sets his sights on stopping. This creates the opportunity for a few tense scenes—perhaps unbelievable, but quite enjoyable. The kills are often off-screen, but the path to the victim is well-constructed. The music is occasionally distracting, especially the songs at the beginning of the film. 6.5/10
