5.0 out of 5 starsa classic western
By Graham Cookson on 16 Dec. 2009
Format: DVD
i was wondering how this film was going to be like about a sightless gunfighter TONY ANTHONY Trying to track down 50 count them beautiful women stolen from him BY DOMINGO ACTOR LOYDD BATISTA
well anthony and FERDINANDO BALDI pull this off manificently and antonys acting is plausible as the blindman and ringo starr is very good as candy . There is plenty of action and the photoghraphy by riccardo pallaotini of the almeria landscape is very good and also the score by the underated stelvio cipriani is catchy and memoriable its truly a very enjoyble film and i would say a classic and made on a pretty big budget and tony anthony deserves a lot more credit for his contribution to the genre hes as good as eastwood in my book.also get the stranger seris with anthony and get mean and comin at ya and treasure of the four crowns all films he made with ferdinando baldi who was a top spaghetti western director also tony anthony is an american actor and it is his own voice in all his films.

4.0 out of 5 starsBlindman
By A. J. Harrison on 29 Nov. 2013
Format: DVD
The Blindman has a deal to deliver 50 women to some miners in Texas but he is betrayed by his partner Skunk who then sells them to Mexican bandit Domingo. Once he has dealt with Skunk he heads to Mexico to get back his 50 women.

After the huge success of the Japanese films Zatoichi with Shintaro Katsu in the lead role, Tony Anthony decided to use it as inspiration for this very unique and exciting entry into the Spaghetti Western genre.

Anthony had worked with Luigi Vanzi on his three Stranger movies and opted to go in a different direction for this movie so he chose Ferdinando Baldi a very talented maker of Spaghetti Westerns (Texas Adios, Forgotten Pistolero etc). The two make a very good team and the resulting film is great example of action, violence and comedy.

As in the Stranger films Tony Anthony gets beaten up regularly and in one case he is even beaten up by a women (but he gets the better of her in the end). As the Blindman he uses a Winchester as his choice of weapon but also as his walking stick as he has a bayonet attached at the end. Lloyd Batista is Domingo and makes a impressive villain and his brother is played by Beatles member Ringo Starr as a love stricken psychopath. The best of the supporting cast has to go to Raf Baldassarre as a Mexican Federale who is betrayed by Domingo and joins up with the Blindman.
The violence comes thick and fast, we have regular blood squirts when people are shot, a man has his eyes burnt out with a cigar and in one memorable scene the 50 are hunted down in the desert and shot down by Domingo and his band.

Stelvio Cipriani composes a catchy and powerful score that fits the violence of the movie.

Overall a impressive film that is the best collaboration between Tony Anthony and Ferdinando Baldi, who would go onto make three more films together but this is by far the best.

HASH(0x80293d98) out of 5 stars Ringo-The Heavy 3 Jan. 2013
By David H. Neale - Published on Amazon.com
Verified Purchase
If you're a Beatle/Ringo fan you must see this at least once. If you like spaghetti westerns you'll enjoy this even if you not crazy about Ringo. Tony Anthony is the "Blindman", a blind gunfighter who rarely misses, and then makes up for his misses by getting off another shot. Ringo gets second billing although his part is more third billing worthy. He does play a convincing Mexican bandito (with a great Mexican/Liverpublian accent) who is surprisingly cruel and evil. No lovable mop-top here. Here Ringo shows us that he can act and play other characters.
HASH(0x818eca38) out of 5 stars Really bad transfer 22 Jun. 2014
By Amazon fan - Published on Amazon.com
Verified Purchase
I suspect the source material is a bootlegged vhs copy. The colors are weak the image is faded and full of digital artifacts and it appears to have been artificially letterboxed. This DVD, or perhaps DVD-R, is certainly not worth the price. Not recommended.

HASH(0x816c6dd4) out of 5 stars Not So Blinded by the Light 28 Oct. 2009
By John P. Marsh - Published on Amazon.com
Lee Broughton's review nothwithstanding (he is an excellent reviewer and I urge you to read his alternate take on this film) this is a pretty stupid Zatoichi knock off. Tony Anthony, as a sort of bumbling insect of a character, is sort of interesting. And the bad guy (not Ringo) is very good. But the script and the treatment of women in the film is pretty reprehensible. The plot points just don't hang.

Most surprising scene in the film is the massacre of the General's troups. Even knowing this is a sour and violent western, I was taken aback by this scene. Pilar, the female interest, is a cipher. The Bad Gal has potential but not enough screen time. Somewhere in this movie is a mean spirited comment about treating women as cattle-commodity in the old west, but even this theme isn't fully pursued. (The film is sexist, but needs to be pushed to repugnance to get attention, I think.) End result: this is lame.

The print I saw (SPAGHETTI WEST collection) was WS and had some very good compositions, but the print wasn't good. Night scenes were too contrasty, so it was hard to fully watch the film. This title, a German release, apparently is an excellent print (according to Broughton) and might influence my negative attitude if I get a chance to see it. Too expensive ! !

Ringo looks good in the film, carries himself pretty well, but the depiction of his love-sick Mex-cowboy, that he is 'saddled' to play, doesn't give him enough to do. In short, as with many Spaghettis, the script should be 'the thing,' but it lacks coherence and complexity. I heard about this film around the time it was made, and it did not make it into very wide release in this country. I saw a hand-printed sign for a screening of it, sometime in the early seventies, at a store-front cinema in Manhattan. I had to split for dinner and could not catch this big-screen showing. Next day the film was gone. Am grateful to have finally seen this film, but it was pretty much a waste of time.
