Review:
This starts out a little slow but it actually turns into a rather intense and disturbing situation. We meet a newly blinded girl named Sarah (Farrow) who has just come home to be with her family and boyfriend. She is off riding horses with her boyfriend when a terrible tragedy must have occurred. She returns home and her entire family is murdered and lying around the house...only she's blind and doesn't know it! The killer left an ID tag that poor Sarah can't read either. Just because Sarah can't see what's going on doesn't mean she's out of danger either as people can see her. She runs out of the house for help only to find herself in an even more dangerous situation. It's just a frightening idea, being blind having everyone you know pretty well being dead and living amongst the corpses unknowingly...insane! Really quite a thing to see, it's just a shame that the mystery was a little unfulfilling and that it took a while to get going. Still definitely worth the time, rather dark and chilling!
